We got some questions 12 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 3: that y'all have asked and we want to make sure 13 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:34,599 Speaker 3: that we get to answer them, so we gotta kick 14 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 3: it off with this. 15 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 5: Lego high Native Lamb Pod. Thank you so much for 16 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,959 Speaker 5: all that you do, Andrew, Tiffany, and Angela. I've been 17 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 5: following you since day one, and you've just done an 18 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 5: excellent job and you continue to do so. I so 19 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,199 Speaker 5: appreciate you. I have two questions and also two resources, 20 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 5: but I've got to make the ninety second deadline, so 21 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 5: I'm gonna go with my questions first. I'm concerned about this. 22 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,759 Speaker 5: You won't have to vote again. Comment that was made 23 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 5: to a group by the current president elect, and I 24 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 5: want to know how we can fight that and if 25 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 5: it's even legal, But he gets out of stuff that's 26 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 5: legal anyway. That's number one. Number two, the privatization of 27 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 5: the weather, which with climate change and extreme weather events, 28 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 5: is concerning, particularly because it would mean that people could 29 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 5: not protect themselves by knowing what's going on and what 30 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 5: they need to do. Those are my two action things. 31 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 4: Okay, first of all, did y'all feel the weight of 32 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 4: her having to say president? 33 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 6: Yes. 34 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: I'll be honest, I don't think there is anything we 35 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: can do about the like not voting again right now. 36 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: I just to remind people they don't officially take power 37 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: until after inauguration January twenty. They have people call me over, thanks, 38 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: my damn mess with you. Yet I'm like, you know, 39 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: they're not in the White House yet, so that happens 40 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: after inauguration. So we have to see what policies they 41 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:10,799 Speaker 1: put forth. But they've been eroding our democratic core principles 42 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: for a long time. I mean we've already seen this 43 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: with restrictive voting laws that took place across the country 44 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: post Shelby be Holder, which was of course the Supreme 45 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: Court decision that rolled back voting rights. So I don't 46 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: know how to attack an attack that we have not 47 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: seen from this administration yet. I think we have to 48 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: brace ourselves, wait for them to take power, and be 49 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 1: ready to fight when it's time. But for the month 50 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: of December, we're on strike, black women, you have a 51 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: right to rest. 52 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 4: I would also add Tiffany, we should also take them 53 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 4: at their words. Yeah, So the good nurse is that 54 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 4: they've pretty much told us what they want to do, 55 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 4: who they want to go after, how they want to dismantle, 56 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 4: and who they want to do the dismantling. And I 57 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 4: just think we've got institutions. Yes, we have organizations out there. Yes, 58 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 4: there'll be some folks who will buck the system. I 59 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 4: think obviously the fact that the final I think Congression 60 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 4: seat has been decided it went to the Democrat, it 61 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 4: lessens the divibe in the House. I think they're now 62 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 4: at five maybe three three three to five vote margin. 63 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 4: So so so I think more than anything, y'all, we're 64 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 4: gonna have to be ready mentally, mentally ready, But then 65 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 4: also our individuals, organizations, institutions, community organizations, and groups, we're 66 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 4: gonna have to be prepared to activate when it comes 67 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 4: to fighting for our selves. Now, if beyond that you've 68 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 4: got energy, fight for everybody else. But I also believe 69 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 4: by fighting for ourselves, we will undoubtedly ensure to everybody 70 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 4: else's safety as we always have. They benefit off of 71 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 4: our labor. And the other thing I would simply say 72 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 4: is to please, please please take care of our mental 73 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 4: because we can't do this every day, three sixty five 74 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 4: times foe, it's gonna be too much. 75 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 3: And then just real quick, the House majority is two 76 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 3: or three. They're still not player, so it's a two 77 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 3: or three seat majority for this. I'm going to say 78 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 3: that I think a lot of that hangs in the 79 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 3: balance with the courts and the Supreme Court, which is 80 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 3: also still very scary. We've watched them piecemeal destroy the 81 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,839 Speaker 3: Voting Rights Act of nineteen sixty five, something that used 82 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 3: to be supported and reauthorized every year on a bipartisan level. 83 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 3: So I'm not sure the privatization of whether we might 84 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 3: get to at another time, because we want to stay on 85 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 3: this broader theme about democracy hanging in the balance, and 86 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 3: with that will go to our next question. 87 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 2: Good evening, Angela, Tiffany and my man Andrew. This is 88 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 2: Mante from Maryland, and I had a question for you. 89 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 2: Just like you, I've mourned, I've asked numerous questions, I've 90 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 2: avoided watching the news, and you know, now I'm at 91 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 2: the point of acceptance and now I'm wondering, based on 92 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 2: something that you mentioned in your mini pod about how 93 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 2: we as Democrats failed at the ground roots level of 94 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 2: reaching out to everybody and organizing at that place, what 95 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 2: should we do right now? We got four years of 96 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,039 Speaker 2: BS that we know we're going to have to deal with, 97 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 2: But what should we be doing right now to prepare 98 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 2: for those midterm elections and especially for that presidential election 99 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 2: in four years. Yeah, we don't have a rough road 100 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 2: to hole, but it is what it is now. But 101 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: what can we be doing right now? What do we 102 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 2: do at the groundroops level? How do we organize at 103 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 2: this point? What can someone like me who does not 104 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 2: live in a swing state do to affect the overall 105 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 2: for the country. I just want us to have a 106 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 2: goal and something in mind and motivate us for these 107 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 2: next few years as we deal with what we're going 108 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 2: to deal with. But any ideas you guys have will 109 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 2: be most appreciated. Thank you for all you do and 110 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 2: welcome home. 111 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 4: Awesome y'all. I know I answered a part of this 112 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 4: through sort of a political lens in one of our 113 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 4: main episodes. I wonder if y'all had other ideas outside 114 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 4: of the whole preparing, running, training, you know, and paying 115 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 4: attention to local offices. Are there other things that may 116 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 4: be non electoral you'd recommend, Well. 117 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: He lives in Maryland, but that doesn't mean that you 118 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: can't impact other people. Angela worked on Andrew's campaign. Andrew 119 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: was in Florida. You can give five dollars a five 120 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 1: hundred dollars to candidates. Pay attention to state races. The 121 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: state houses a lot are Republican controlled, and that's where 122 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 1: a lot of this shitty policy comes from. That bubbles 123 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: up to the federal government. So make sure you pay 124 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: attention to that. If you have children, show up at 125 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: those school board elections, because a lot of people use 126 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: school boards as a launching pad to launch their careers, 127 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: and lately it's been a conservative launching pad to be 128 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: a crusader against these made up cultural wars. There's also 129 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: GOTV efforts. There are no such thing. There is no 130 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: such thing as off election years. Every year there are 131 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: elections at the state, federal, and local level, so yeah, 132 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: that's not You can work on a campaign, you can 133 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: door knock, there are issue campaigns, so a ton of 134 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: things to do. 135 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 6: As you see it, you know. 136 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 3: I have to tell you guys something that's really that 137 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 3: was on my heart while I was hearing him talk, 138 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 3: and that is I think that there's way too much 139 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 3: attention being placed on GOTV, on getting out the vote 140 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 3: for those of you who don't know what that is, 141 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 3: way too much attention on how we get ready for 142 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 3: the next election. I think the biggest challenge with black 143 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 3: political power is that we rev up and ramp up 144 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 3: to fall back, and we rev up and ramp up 145 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:29,239 Speaker 3: to fall back. 146 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 6: If there is no off. 147 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 3: Season, as Andrew said, he said, black women, you all 148 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 3: get to go on strike. There's no days off. What 149 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 3: does that mean. It means that our organizing isn't just 150 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 3: about protecting our voting rights or exercise exercising our franchise 151 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 3: at the ballot box. It is holding people accountable to 152 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 3: an agenda that we want to see happen on the 153 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 3: policy level, I mean and in policy on every single 154 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 3: level of government. 155 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 6: I think the other thing that we have to be. 156 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 3: Mindful of is how we talk about people. There's a 157 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 3: lot of conversation about swing states, but not as much 158 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 3: about swing voters. There's a lot of conversation about what 159 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 3: people needed to hear in this election, and not about 160 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 3: what people need to hear period. You cannot forget the 161 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 3: humanity of a person and only consider them when there's 162 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 3: time for a transaction. I don't like to be engaged 163 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 3: by transactional people. 164 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 6: I hate it. 165 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 3: I have a point of privilege because I'm engaged all 166 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 3: the time in the electoral system, because I'm a strategist. 167 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 3: This is the work that I've been doing all of 168 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 3: my adult life. There are many other people who are 169 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 3: gravitated to and tossed aside every four years. That is 170 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 3: not sustainable. It's not okay. And we got to deal 171 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 3: with the elephant in the room. And the elephant is 172 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 3: getting bigger because you know, pun intended, because the GOP 173 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 3: is making pro by talking to the forgotten amongst us, 174 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 3: because we've decided that their low propensity, or they don't 175 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 3: turn out, or they're low information, so they don't deserve 176 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 3: a conversation. They don't deserve to be asked what they 177 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 3: need to hear or see or feel from their politicians. 178 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 3: That's not a good strategy going forward for us as 179 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 3: black people, or frankly for elected officials. You know, we 180 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 3: avoid those conversations because we don't want to argue, but 181 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 3: those not having those arguments means these people just be like, 182 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 3: forget it. I don't think that's a good strategy. That's 183 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 3: the one thing I hate about DC the most is 184 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 3: the transaction. Imagine when you don't deal with politics at 185 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 3: all and they treating you like. 186 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 6: Did you vote? Tip told us that when we were 187 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 6: knocking doors. 188 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 3: Andrew, remember, Tipp was like, did we not start the 189 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 3: conversation with these people like did you vote? 190 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 6: Tip was like, let me talk to this lady about 191 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 6: her dog? 192 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 4: Was they weren't having us talk about the election folks? 193 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 4: When that went went by. The other piece that I 194 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 4: loved about where you were saying there is that we're 195 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 4: also always doing the talking, but not a lot of 196 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 4: the listening. And when we sat and listened, everything she 197 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 4: disavowed about politics she validated about politics and about herself, 198 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 4: her engagement and her interests. All we had to do 199 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 4: is listening, listen, and then give it right back to her. 200 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 4: We're like girl, you said you don't like people. You 201 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 4: love people, and they love you. It's clear, so I 202 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 4: love you, know the listening part and the other piece 203 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 4: you said about, you know, avoiding the hard conversations and 204 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 4: then them hearing from the other side. The avoidance of 205 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 4: the hard conversations have led people to believe we're not 206 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 4: talking to them period. Yes, so it has the reverse effect. 207 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 4: You don't want to get in the conflict, and they're saying, 208 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 4: you're not coming up my street at all. You want 209 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 4: have a thing to say about my lived experience because 210 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,839 Speaker 4: everything I do hear you talk about and got nothing 211 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 4: to do with me, and I don't see myself reflected 212 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 4: in it. So true that power has to change for sure. 213 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 7: What's up, Native Lampard. My name is Harriet and I'm 214 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 7: calling in from the great state of Georgia.

You survived what I consider 218 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 7: to be public lynchings, and you upset the system by 219 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 7: providing a voice for the voiceless at a time when 220 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 7: we lost a lot of our political commentators like Trevor Noah. 221 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 7: You all stepped in and filled a gap that was 222 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 7: so necessary. So thank you all for what you've done, 223 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 7: and thank you for not abandoning us. And I would 224 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 7: love to see you all pivot. You know, I would 225 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 7: love to see more of an offensive posture, not so 226 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 7: much commentary on what the Trump administration is doing, but 227 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 7: what is the resistance moving doing?

So 330 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 8: for example, say Matt Gates, say he's appointed, Say I 331 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 8: rica am assigned to follow all things Matt Gates and 332 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 8: what he is doing as the Attorney general and what 333 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 8: the Attorney General of the United States does and can 334 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 8: do has. 335 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 6: Done in the past. 336 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 8: What if we divvied all of that up, somebody else 337 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 8: had secretary of State and so on and so forth, 338 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 8: and then we report it back to the Native Lampod 339 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 8: to let each other know what is happening, right, because 340 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 8: we're all so busy, there's so much going on, We're 341 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 8: just trying to survive. That all of us don't have 342 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 8: time to do all of that homework. So what if 343 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 8: we collectively did the homework together and educated each other 344 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 8: on civics in this country. 345 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 6: That's what I propose. So yeah, I love this question. 346 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 3: I do want to clarify to my homegirl in Seattle 347 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 3: that we don't know how many people Trump is gonna 348 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 3: make cabinet level. It is gonna be more than twelve. 349 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 3: So I just want to make sure that we're twenty 350 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 3: six disappointments that need Senate confirmation, yes, but they're not 351 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 3: all cabinet level even when they're sinning confirmed. But I 352 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 3: do know they're greater than twelve. So I just want 353 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 3: to make sure that we that we that we doubled 354 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 3: down on that really quick. And then Tiff, I know, 355 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 3: had a thought about being reporters, and then I have 356 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 3: a thought about that too. 357 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 6: And I have a question. 358 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: We don't have time to get into it on this Okay, okay, 359 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: we don't have time to get into it on this podcast. 360 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: But I have a question about if, like what then 361 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: what is the cabinet, because like the US Trade Rep 362 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 1: is part of the cabinet that Senate confirmed. And I 363 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 1: remember this because I had an argument in the newsroom 364 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,439 Speaker 1: like fifteen years ago, and I was like, yeah, but 365 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: that's not cabinet level, and they're like, no, Trade Rep 366 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: is cabinet. So anyway, at a later time we can 367 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 1: talk about what constitutes a member of the cabinet. 368 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 3: But on tip this is a good point. I just 369 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 3: let me just tell you just one thing. A president 370 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 3: also has discretion on who they decide its cabinet level 371 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 3: beyond those departments as well. The Trade Rep is generally 372 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 3: cabinet level, but I think that that is no, no, no, 373 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 3: it is cabinet level regardless. But there are other appointments 374 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:43,719 Speaker 3: that the president can make and decide that they're going 375 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 3: to be cabinet level. 376 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 1: The president can also decide what agencies are housed in DC. 377 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: So Donald Trump, through executive action can say, oh, I 378 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,439 Speaker 1: you know, I now I want the Department of Defense 379 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: house that out of mar A Lago or next door 380 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: to mar Lago. Like of course he went over eighty 381 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: five percent of federal government workers don't work in DC, 382 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: but the agencies or house here. So anyway, speaking the civics, 383 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: you can see that even even we need a check 384 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: in on civics sometimes, so to be continued the conversation 385 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: on what constitutes the cabinet. But yeah, this is my 386 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: challenge with this, you guys. Honestly, I think citizen journalism 387 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: is amazing, and I've seen people do amazing things there. 388 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: But to armed people who aren't vetted, who we don't 389 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: know and say yes, go back and report one. To 390 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 1: even get access to information, sometimes it is behind it's 391 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: not behind a paywall, but what I would call a 392 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 1: journalism wall, you know, like everything is not on Google, 393 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: you know. And I think that's part of my challenge 394 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: with people who go on air and they ask them 395 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: assistant to pull pull me the top five facts about 396 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 1: this five minutes before they go on air, and it's 397 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 1: like care enough to become a subject matter expert, go 398 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: down that rabbit hole. Read when I go after things, 399 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: when I study things. But I wanted to talk about prisons. 400 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 1: I didn't do that five minutes before the show. I 401 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 1: spent three days, you know, looking looking at prisons, pulling 402 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: up old segments. 403 00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 6: I did. 404 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: And that that does requ require a commitment, It does 405 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: acquire a skill set. It does require having access a 406 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,120 Speaker 1: press pass, a phone call, knowing how to navigate these systems. 407 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: To get information to make sure. So if we're arming 408 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: people to do that, it's still going to require a 409 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: level of fact checking. Misinformation and disinformation is a huge deal. 410 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: And even in our comments in videos we've seen, I've 411 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 1: seen so many people get things wrong, quote something, misstate something. 412 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: So I think people come here to make sure that 413 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: they're getting vetted information as factual at least that's what 414 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 1: I take that very very seriously, as you guys know, 415 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: and I try my best to do that here. So 416 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: I just wonder logistically how that will work. If we're saying, yeah, 417 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: go out there and cover it. I like the commitment 418 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 1: of saying yeah, we want to be a part of 419 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,120 Speaker 1: it too, But on the back end, having the fact 420 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: check that and vet that, I think is probably some 421 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: staffing issues that we couldn't support, to be honest, But 422 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 1: I love the idea since that I'm not putting like 423 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: I love that you said it, and my co host 424 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: probably love the idea. But I'm just thinking from a 425 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: journalistic standard, a newsroom standard, of how to make sure 426 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: they were always saying factual things that we took actual time, 427 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: that we didn't google in five minutes, because that is 428 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,199 Speaker 1: a journalists will tell you that is not research, and 429 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 1: that's not how you get there. 430 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I first of all completely respect for your position 431 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 4: here and you as a journalist. I wouldn't expect anything 432 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 4: else from U, Tiffany, And certainly if you heard the 433 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 4: word reporting, I think what I heard was her saying, 434 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 4: and report back to the native land, you know, sort 435 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 4: of community, what you are following, looking at so on 436 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 4: and so forth. And quite frankly, some of the same 437 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 4: concerns you raised there may still you know, it may 438 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 4: still occur. I do love the idea of diving up 439 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 4: the work. And what I heard from that is like 440 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 4: we all share in this commitment to hold this government accountable. 441 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 4: Let's hold the cabinet members accountable, which, by the way, 442 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 4: the cabinet of course existed. The cabinet is an advisory 443 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 4: group to the president. But what makes you a cabinet 444 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 4: member Through the Constitution of the United States those fifteen 445 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 4: and to add a cabinet member it must be approved 446 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 4: by the Congress. Of course, are those who fall in 447 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 4: the line of secession, those who can become president should 448 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 4: the president be incapacitated going down the line of secession 449 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 4: from the Vice president, Speaker or the House President of 450 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,360 Speaker 4: the Senate pro Tem. It then goes to the members 451 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 4: of the Cabinet, the fifteen members of the Cabinet, which 452 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 4: the order of who would then come next is based 453 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 4: off of the age in which that department was created, 454 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 4: so starting with Secretary of State onward and forward. But 455 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 4: nonetheless that help the whole idea of the civics lesson. 456 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 4: I think it's really powerful, more than what's happening with 457 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 4: one agency over another from time to time. Somebody who 458 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 4: is finding these really nuanced questions about the government that 459 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 4: may seem insignificant but actually show up more often in 460 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 4: our lives than we know, and educating, schooling us on 461 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 4: those kinds of things. I think that is something that 462 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 4: would be good for the show. And either through our 463 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 4: own research and knowledge of a certain area or through 464 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 4: research system, we can of course do the fact checking piece, 465 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 4: but love the idea of citizen reporting on basically what 466 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 4: makes a democracy and what are the civics components of 467 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 4: this government that we all have an obligation I think 468 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 4: to have access. 469 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 3: To just really quick. I like what you just said 470 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 3: to ag Tip. I agree with you on the fact 471 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 3: check and piece. I think that that's too much for 472 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 3: us to carry. But if we use our website, which 473 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 3: is native lampod dot com, as a place for people 474 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 3: to kind of do a group assignment, I'll tell you all, 475 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 3: I'm a collaborative learner. I loved group assignments growing up. 476 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 3: Even when we do our pre production calls in the morning, 477 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 3: I so love those because I'm like, oh, I didn't 478 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 3: think about this this way or whatever. So I like 479 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 3: the idea of one folks feeling not isolated in this 480 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 3: administration that is coming up. Two, yeah, do a cabinet watch. 481 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 3: We can even call it NLP Cabinet Watch or NLPFAM 482 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 3: Cabinet Watch. And people are just like, hey, did you 483 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 3: hear this thing? 484 00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 6: Is this true? Is this real? 485 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 3: And they can even be kind of a fact check 486 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 3: source for each other, and maybe each week we can 487 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 3: look in there and see if there's something that we 488 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,199 Speaker 3: want to share with the broader community outside of that 489 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 3: which in some ways this would function like a Reddit, 490 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 3: but specifically you know, on our site. If we have 491 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 3: that functionality that could be built in LOLO, that would 492 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 3: be great. But I really like the idea of a 493 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 3: group of signment where people do not feel isolated in 494 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 3: this upcoming administration, and Lolo said that she will have 495 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 3: details on how we could do something like that next week. 496 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 6: Today said that Tiff also. 497 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 3: Agrees that this might be a group of assignment that's 498 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 3: worth continuing and considering. 499 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 1: So can I love over time, But I want to 500 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 1: say something really quickly. Group assignments maybe does another minipod 501 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,239 Speaker 1: I like group of signments. But I'm gonna tell you 502 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: I'm not a collaborative learner when I say group of assignment. 503 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: Like if the three of us don't do a group assignment, 504 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: it's like, Okay, I'm gonna go off and do my thing, Andrew, 505 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: you go do your part, Angel will do your part, 506 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: and then let's come back together, right and see if 507 00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: these I don't like being in a room because spitball 508 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: and I'm like, no, no, no, I have a clear 509 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: like other people are a distraction sometimes when I'm like 510 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: clear minded and focused. So I don't know, I think 511 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:14,400 Speaker 1: that's a work style. I'd be curious how maybe yeah, 512 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: and maybe. 513 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 4: I like you could always end up with the work. 514 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 3: I agree with that too. There's definitely times where that happens. 515 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 3: But I do think that there's a space for brainstorming 516 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,120 Speaker 3: there's a space to go back and do your work 517 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 3: and come back. And I think, no matter what, it's 518 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 3: gonna be some of that. Because we're talking about a 519 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 3: virtual group of sign We're not telling people get on Zoom. 520 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 3: We're just saying you can share what you're learning on 521 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 3: kind of like a Reddit type of a board or 522 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 3: something on our site, which we don't have yet. And 523 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 3: Lolo is telling me to wait to talk about that 524 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 3: any further next week. But our great ideas, I love it, 525 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 3: I love these questions, answer it. 526 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 6: We just want y'all involve. 527 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 3: Like our highest hope for this podcast is not that 528 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 3: you listen to us every week.
