But 62 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: but but he is putting all of the pressure on 63 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: the Congress to pass no other legislation because he refuses 64 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: to sign any until his voter suppression bill, the Save Act, 65 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: is passed by the House of the Senate and sent 66 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: to his desk for signature. He is invoking a power 67 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: he concedes is even greater than him and trying to 68 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: push this over the finish line. Let's hear it directly 69 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: from the President. 70 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 7: I'm tying homeland security into voter identification with picture and 71 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 7: proof of citizen citizenship in order to vote, and those 72 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 7: who are the most important thing having to do with 73 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 7: homeland security. So it's part. It should be part of 74 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 7: the Homeland Security bill, and I'm requesting that the Republican 75 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 7: Senators do that immediately. You don't have to take a 76 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 7: fast vote, don't worry about Easter going home. In fact, 77 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 7: make this one for Jesus.

My question 80 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: is does he know them? 81 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 6: No, No, he. 82 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 3: Knows two Corinthians. You have to say nothing on this one. 83 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 3: This is this is all a part of you know 84 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 3: what he's been doing. He's been holding the Senate hostage 85 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 3: to forcing the saveack down the throats of the American people, 86 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 3: ensuring TSA workers are not getting paid for doing the 87 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 3: hard work they do every single day, sending an ice 88 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 3: to monitor and pass out water. I don't know if 89 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 3: y'all saw that video. I wish I would have pulled that. 90 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 3: But this is like all a part of this overall 91 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 3: scheme to hijack American elections and to still continue to 92 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 3: steal because the ain't a new still continue to steal 93 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 3: democracy out of our hands. 94 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I'll tell you. I didn't put this in 95 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 1: the announcements, but there were elections this week, and one 96 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: such election took place actually in the area of Florida 97 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: State House seat that represents mar A Lago and thereby 98 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: Donald Trump in the Florida Legislature, where a Democrat actually 99 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,239 Speaker 1: picked up that seat representing the president of the Florida 100 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: Legislature and had about a fourteen point swing between their 101 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: victory and the Republican who last held that held that seat. 102 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: And I'll just mentioned just parenthetically to this save accents, 103 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 1: he's uh. 104 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 2: The today he's. 105 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 1: Railing against mail and voting, y'all. But guess how Donald 106 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 1: Trump voted in this election. He used mail and voting 107 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: to cast his vote against his new Democratic representative. So 108 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: I just thought that was They're crazy, thought that that 109 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: that that was interesting to note. We're going to get 110 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: a little deeper actionally into some of the suppressive tactics 111 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: that that we're confronting a little bit later, but right now, Bakari, 112 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: I hear there's some news on the on the Taylor 113 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:13,359 Speaker 1: family front. 114 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, first of all, I hope that we 115 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 2: all take time to acknowledge those that we've lost in 116 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 2: this kind of battle for soil rights and justice. People 117 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 2: think that that we forget about them, But I just 118 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 2: want Breonna Taylor's family to know that we remember her 119 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 2: in a mode Aubrey and all those names that have 120 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:37,119 Speaker 2: been forgotten. People confuse justice and accountability all the time. 121 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 2: And justice is Breonna Taylor still being here. Justice is 122 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 2: George Floyd still being here. But here is Breonna Taylor's 123 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 2: mother talking about her daughter and criticizing the Department of Justice. 124 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 2: But she she says in our quote, she was killed 125 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: because of their lives and negligence, and somebody should be 126 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 2: held accountable for that. And that's as we look at 127 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 2: d o J dismissing the charges for the officers that 128 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 2: killed Brionna Taylor. In one of the words she uses 129 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 2: in this which I think is so powerful, is accountability. 130 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 2: And I think that we have to remember the difference 131 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 2: between accountability and justice. But let Brionna Taylor's mother please 132 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 2: have a moment where she's able to get that accountability. 133 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 2: And the work that I do all the time, it's 134 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,679 Speaker 2: very ready that you get accountability or justice that civil 135 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 2: cases are usually thrown out and the officers run scott free. 136 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 2: And so here we are. 137 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean this is heartbreaking. Our listeners will 138 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: remember that the Department of Justice, under the most unjust 139 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: Attorney General, Pam Bondi, has moved to see those charges 140 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: against those officers dismissed. Since the Trump administration has come 141 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: into power, I believe a judge still has to make 142 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: the final decision on allowing those charges to be done 143 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: away with. And you know, I think at home, let's 144 00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 1: just lift our lift ourselves and collective prayer that the 145 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: right thing can be done. 146 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 6: At this point, the right thing I don't know what 147 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 6: that is anymore. Do we get to. 148 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,239 Speaker 4: Definitely isn charges? 149 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's for sure. Well, continuing along this theme of 150 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: justice and what's right, Angela, I hear that there's a 151 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: court case that that's moving. 152 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 4: That wron afro Man.

Before she was at Syracuse, 265 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 6: she was at Buffalo, but she's in a particular part 266 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 6: of this region where her bracket always finds her facing Yukon. Yukon, 267 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 6: as we know, is one of the most dominant women's 268 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 6: programs in women's basketball, and so essentially after the loss, 269 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 6: she says that she's upset and she doesn't know why 270 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 6: she has to continue to face Yukon. Take a listen. 271 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 9: For us to do what we've done, to continuously have 272 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 9: to come to Yukon and every single school that I 273 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 9: go to, from Buffalo to it's unfair to the young people. 274 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. 275 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 9: Somebody said, is there something that they might have against me? 276 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 9: If that's the case, and we need to communicate about that. 277 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 9: But for us to be what we've done and our 278 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 9: body of work to have to come and play that 279 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 9: best team in the country.

Don got tired of getting her ass beat 292 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 6: by that particular team I'm talking about Don Staley, and 293 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 6: she got people behind her and recruited and did what 294 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 6: she had to do. While it may not be that easy, 295 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 6: right because it does. It sounds easy, but everybody can't 296 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 6: do it. In my mind, I'm like, coach, I hear 297 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 6: you you. But she's making it. She's almost making. 298 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 3: It about her, she said, And she went on to say, like, 299 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 3: I don't know, if they got sign against me, why is. 300 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 6: It about you? Why is it if it isn't really 301 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 6: about these young ladies that you are trying to teach 302 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 6: to be better humans. You're teaching and she and she said, 303 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 6: I did a little further research. She said she knew 304 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 6: they was gonna lose it two thirty because she couldn't 305 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 6: simulate the surroundings of playing on you, playing in Yukon's 306 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 6: arena and being with those fans. So the girls were 307 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 6: already afraid. It was really a poor showing. But I'm 308 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 6: like they learned that from you, Like I feel that 309 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 6: that's set energy that they got from you. You may 310 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 6: disagree with me Becaari, but I. 311 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 2: Agree production car I did. I agree with that wholeheartedly. 312 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 2: I just think that now that the reason that they 313 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 2: are there, people need to know is that they they 314 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 2: place people regionally so that fans can travel because in 315 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 2: women's basketball, they're not neutral sites. The top sixteen teams 316 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 2: get home teams.

That 395 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: that's why he went out the Greenland. He saw it 396 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 1: on the map.

That's 400 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 3: the play said. If ts A can't do it, then 401 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 3: you're not getting no perks. 402 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 1: I don't explain it listens from from the top, what 403 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:20,360 Speaker 1: is doing. 404 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 6: So if you are a member of Congress and you 405 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 6: fly Delta, you get perks probably to the line. First, 406 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 6: you don't have to go through certain certain areas of security. 407 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 6: They take care of you in various ways. But they said, 408 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 6: you know, the upgrades and such, and so they're saying 409 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 6: Delta's like, you know what, until you all figure this out, 410 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 6: you don't get any perks if you can't. If you can't, 411 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,199 Speaker 6: and I think to me that was much more of 412 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 6: a political statement. That's why I said, that's why I 413 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 6: forol Delta. I am ade Delta. Okay, so you get it. 414 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 6: Not only is it the best airline. I appreciate them 415 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 6: being bold enough to say we don't have time for this. 416 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 6: It's like, guess what if you can't figure this out, 417 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 6: no more perks. You wait just like everybody else, You 418 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 6: get harassed by by ice like everyone else. You you 419 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 6: sit with the pedestrians, nothing special about you. We'm putting 420 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 6: you back in Jim Pop, and I appreciate it. 421 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 4: We do have the video from Delta CEO, so let's 422 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 4: take a quick listen. 423 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 10: It's inexcusable that our security agents, are frontline agents that 424 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 10: are central to what we do, are not being paid. 425 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 10: And it's ridiculous to see them be used as a 426 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 10: political chips. 427 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 2: So you know, we're our age, you know. 428 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,399 Speaker 10: And if there's a call to action here, and I 429 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 10: think open ninety percent of the American public support most 430 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 10: people getting paid. Ask our folks right here in Washington 431 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 10: to do their job, get our people paid. They can 432 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 10: do it. 433 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: That's leadership. 434 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 6: Do your job. 435 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. I think that's Ed Bastian is his 436 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: name in correct me if I'm wrong, But I appreciated 437 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: during the George Floyd protests the statement that came under 438 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: his signature from Delta remembory pretty distinctly, and I also 439 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 1: appreciate it. This is a little selfish and personal, but 440 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: the great links they went through through COVID and recognizing 441 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: that a lot of folks weren't flying for people who 442 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,440 Speaker 1: were regular flyers, and it achieved certain levels and statuses 443 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: and points and that kind of thing. They like, rolled 444 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 1: that thing over for three years. They sure did, you know, 445 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,880 Speaker 1: gave you opportunity after opportunity away. I just think that's 446 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: the way that corporations can stand up during the age 447 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: of Trump and Trump is to say that they matter. 448 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 1: It may not seem like a big thing to regular folk, 449 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: but those members aly on that thing when they're running 450 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: from the Capitol trying to catch a flight to get 451 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 1: to you know, back to their homes and enjoy their 452 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: weekends and so on and so forth. 453 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,479 Speaker 6: Waitness line waiting is to our line wrapped around the corner. 454 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: If y'all can't do your business, you can't do the 455 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: work in Washington. Do it. 456 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 2: That's just for just for people who were watching. The 457 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,959 Speaker 2: people need to know that you can fund t s 458 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 2: A cleanly without funding the rest of homeland security. So 459 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 2: that was the agreement, you know, if they want to. 460 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: Know, that was the Republicans and the Democrats agreement that 461 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 1: that soon took to Trump. 462 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 2: Trump and Trump said no. So, I mean there have 463 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 2: been bills. There have been seven bills, clean bills, clean 464 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 2: funding bills to fund the fund TSA that Democrats have 465 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 2: sponsored that eleven. Now I'm sorry side. Yeah, that's but 466 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 2: there's been an objection from at least one senator each time. 467 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 2: So at the end of the at the end of 468 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 2: the day, people should know that this can be done cleanly. 469 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 2: Republicans are objecting to that, that's right. 470 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: And just you know, while we're on this to say, 471 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: and I know we'll talk about TSA. We will be 472 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: flowing into that real quick. But he used TSA because 473 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: he knows the disdain that Democrats and the American people have, 474 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: the fear that has now been instilled in so many 475 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: of us about what people can expect when they encounter TSA. 476 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: He used that as a weapon to basically say, Okay, Democrats, 477 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 1: if you won't agree, if you won't come to the 478 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,399 Speaker 1: table and do what I want you to do, how 479 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 1: about we dispatched TSA. And I think Angela, you've got 480 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: a little bit more drilled down on how they're showing 481 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: up in airport, what's around the country now. 482 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 3: What we are really starting to see, y'all is this 483 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 3: overlap between the actions of the Save Act and Andrew, 484 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 3: That's why I was kind of mumbling under my breath. 485 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 3: It's actually a little more complicated than that. That compromise 486 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 3: that Senator thom brought to Donald Trump was because what 487 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 3: they're hoping for is that they can get at least 488 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 3: most of the elements of the Save Act thrown into 489 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 3: the reconciliation process, so they still force this thing down 490 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 3: our throats. A lot of Democratic senators don't support that methodology, 491 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 3: but they were trying to figure out a way to 492 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 3: get the TSO's paid. Yesterday, you all may know, my 493 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 3: solo pod was on this topic. Talked to the AFG 494 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 3: president Everett Kelly, and then one of the local presidents, 495 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 3: Aaron Barker, who was also ASO le' sorry American Federation 496 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 3: of Government Employees, and they represent I think it's twenty 497 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 3: seven thousand of the tsos, although there are a little 498 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 3: under fifty thousand total, and so what I think is 499 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 3: really important here is the overlay. So they are doing 500 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 3: a dry run, as we'll see in this next clip 501 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 3: from Steve Bannon. And then I'll yield to y'all of 502 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,120 Speaker 3: what it might be like to deploy ice where they 503 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 3: do not belong outside of the jurisdiction as originally intended 504 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 3: in that initial Homeland Security Authorization Act. If we deploy 505 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 3: ice around the country in places where we can instill 506 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,679 Speaker 3: fear in the American people, at the airports, just to 507 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,399 Speaker 3: see if you have your papers, at election sites, just 508 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 3: to see if you have your papers, and everywhere else 509 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:46,399 Speaker 3: that doesn't have anything to do with enforcing immigration the 510 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 3: immigration laws of this land. So let's roll this clip 511 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 3: from Steve Bannon because I think it's important, and then 512 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 3: let's tie this into Project twenty twenty five. 513 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 4: Let's roll it. 514 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 11: We can use what's happening with these ICE helping out, 515 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 11: helping out at the airports. We can use this as 516 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 11: a test is a test case to get it's really 517 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 11: perfect ICE's involvement in the twenty twenty six midterm elections. 518 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 2: Sir, Yeah, I think we should have ICE agents at 519 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 2: the polling places because if you're an illegal alien, you 520 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:13,719 Speaker 2: can't vote. 521 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 11: The ICE agents at the airports to help out. And 522 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,159 Speaker 11: remember they said they're not going to work the X 523 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 11: rays is too complicated and they're not trained for it. 524 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 11: But they're trained to wait for it, check IDs. That's 525 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 11: what it's perfect training for the fall of twenty twenty six. 526 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 11: This is why it's such a brilliant This is another 527 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 11: five D chess move for President Trump. Let's get ICE 528 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 11: into the airports to help out to the lines. And 529 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 11: they can't work the machines, you know, what they do 530 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 11: is walk them down. Hey, we're gonna speak things, SOO 531 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,200 Speaker 11: can we check your IDs? That's what's going to happen 532 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 11: in the follow twenty six because folks, we're tired of 533 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 11: having an election stolen. So ICE is going to be 534 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 11: there in the in the fall of twenty six, just 535 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 11: like they're in the airports today. So from the war room, 536 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 11: suck on. 537 00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 4: That, Jesus Christ. Right, So there's that, and then I 538 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 4: want it. 539 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 3: While you guys are responding to this, Nick, if we 540 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 3: can put up pages one fifty eight and one fifty 541 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 3: nine of Project twenty twenty five where they reference TSA. 542 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 3: They are at the same time where they're trying to intimidate 543 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 3: American citizens, they also are working to make TSA clunky 544 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 3: so they can privatize it. Why would they want to 545 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 3: do that? They also want to deunionize it. Why would 546 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 3: they want to put all of this in place around 547 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 3: the twenty twenty sixth elections so that we are forced 548 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 3: to have our IDs check? So it's in alignment with 549 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 3: what the Save Act calls for. Even if they don't 550 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 3: pass the Save Act, And all of this is happening 551 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 3: with the backdrop of what happened in the Supreme Court, 552 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 3: so we can hold that. But I want y'all to 553 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 3: be able to respond to this. 554 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: So if I could just say, for the benefit of 555 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,679 Speaker 1: our listeners, that there isn't a jurisdiction that I know 556 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: of in the entire United States that does not have 557 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:56,159 Speaker 1: an ID verification when you go and vote, either an identification, 558 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: a legal identification, or you would have to vote what 559 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 1: is known as a challenge ballot, which is an affidavit 560 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: that swears that you are who you say you are, 561 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: and that vote then gets investigated and counted or discounted 562 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: after the election day is done. That's part of the 563 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:17,239 Speaker 1: curing process. So when you hear the President say that 564 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 1: it's just an ID, he's playing with you. It is 565 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: not just an ID. We already have that in the 566 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: fifty states and in the four territories in which voting 567 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: takes place and is run by those respective states or territories. 568 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: What he is suggesting, not suggesting, what he wants to mandate, 569 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: is that we now not only have to show our identification, 570 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: whatever that legal idea may be, but that we have 571 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: to show our papers. And what do we mean when 572 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: we say show our papers? It means that you need 573 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: to have a birth certificate, a government issue birth certificate 574 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: that you produce in order to register to vote. And saying, 575 00:28:55,960 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: millions of people, millions across this country, including and I 576 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: would say especially and Republican areas, do not have line 577 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: of sight access to their birth certificates. I have had 578 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 1: to requisition my own information from my state's government. And 579 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: I mentioned before on this show, was sent two different 580 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: Social Security cards with two different middle names for me 581 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 1: on it, right, So the government, it's not as if 582 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: they have the perfect solution for all the problems. I 583 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: had to go through and get other documentation to cure that, 584 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 1: and then get a single number and card that had 585 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 1: my first, middle and last name actually accurate. 586 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 6: And you know who doesn't have that? A lot of women, married, 587 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 6: women divorced, they change their name often, and also older people. 588 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 6: My friend is trying to get a passport for her dad, 589 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 6: he's seventy some years old. She can't get his birth certificate. 590 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 6: It's impossible to get his birth certificate in California, in 591 00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:00,120 Speaker 6: Los Angeles County it takes her for the paperwork and 592 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 6: the amount of time, and it's so intentional, and I'm 593 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 6: thinking to myself, this is so disgusting, and it feels more, 594 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 6: and it feels more to me. You think of women 595 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 6: who have been married and they changed their last name, 596 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 6: or they didn't change their last name, or they got 597 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 6: a divorce and they didn't change it back, and it's 598 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 6: impossible to find that to happen. And I think about 599 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 6: that for so many women because that is the case, 600 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 6: that's real. 601 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 1: And you know what else, I think that's a brilliant point. 602 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 1: I would also add, particularly in the South, the geopolitical South, 603 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 1: but also the actual South, you have elders who were 604 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: given a name, hospital changes it. They end up with 605 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: different documentation that does not include the name that they 606 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: go by. And so if you force those people to 607 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 1: track down the ID that matches then the birth certificate 608 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: name and have those be identical in spelling and in 609 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: every other forms, we would run into some serious situations. 610 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: And again that is at the hands of the government. 611 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: That's at the hands of the government, not the fault 612 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: of the individual. So when we hear the President talk 613 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: about this, and everybody says, well, yeah, I mean, it 614 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: makes sense to have an ID. We're not talking about 615 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 1: an ID. That's not what this is about. This is 616 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: about show your papers. And what they're creating is a 617 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: problem in search of a solution, rather than a solution 618 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 1: in search of a they have a solution that they're 619 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 1: creating a problem. 620 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 6: This is not a real problem. This is not a problem. 621 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 6: It's not a problem. 622 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 1: We're talking about fourteen people in what ten years who 623 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: voted illegally as non citizens of the United States, and 624 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: we're able to prove that it was an intentional act. 625 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,959 Speaker 2: I mean, that's incredible. One of the things that we 626 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 2: are seeing right now, and I wanted to toss to a 627 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 2: clip from Senator Ed Markey from Massachusetts, is that you 628 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 2: highlighted this because a lot of people who watch the show, 629 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 2: and a lot of my friends, barbershop friends, a lot 630 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 2: of black men I talk to ask the question, like 631 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 2: why is it difficult to show your ID when you vote? 632 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 2: They think that's what this is, and it's not. It's 633 00:31:56,560 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 2: a citizenship test, right, it's proving your citizenship. Those things 634 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 2: And again we go back to the same point that 635 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 2: we made last week and the week before lasted. If 636 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 2: your vote went and so important, they wouldn't work so 637 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 2: damn hard to take it from you. And along those 638 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 2: same lines, one of the things that I found to 639 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 2: be true is that if the Save I passes, it 640 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 2: will be easier to buy an AR fifteen in this 641 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 2: country then it will be to vote. And Ed Markey 642 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 2: right here, Nick toss it up actually went to the 643 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 2: well and illustrated this. 644 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 12: The new requirement to present a photo ID at the 645 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 12: polling place is more stringent than laws already on the 646 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 12: books in all but one stake in the country. If 647 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 12: to Save Act, if to Steal Act passes, it will 648 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 12: be easier to buy a gun in many states than 649 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 12: to vote. Can I say that again? The NRA does 650 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 12: not want it to be difficult to buy a gun. 651 00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 12: Republicans go along with that. Red States standards are very low. 652 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 12: To buy a gun, but to vote, Oh, now they're concerns. 653 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 12: Now we need standards which make it almost impossible for 654 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 12: tens of millions of Americans to. 655 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 2: Be able to comply. So just let that sink in. 656 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 12: It would be easy to buy a gun than to 657 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 12: exercise the most fundamental right of citizenship in our nation. 658 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: But KR, you say this all the time that none 659 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: of these things are high happening in isolation, separate and 660 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: apart from each other, That all these things, these systems 661 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: at every level, are working together in conspiracy to produce 662 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 1: a particular outcome. Angela. Before we go to the or 663 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: arguments that were before the US Supreme Court this week, 664 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: give us an example of how out there on the 665 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: West Coast we are seeing the local leaders take it 666 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: into their own hands to try to bear down again 667 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,719 Speaker 1: on this intimidation tactic around voting. 668 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that what we're seeing is states across 669 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 3: the country are emboldened by what we are witnessing Republicans do, 670 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 3: which is to make it more difficult to vote and 671 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 3: to intimidate voters. So the Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, 672 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 3: who also happens to be a front runner on the 673 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 3: Republican side in the California governor's gouvenatorial race, is trying 674 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 3: to seize more than six hundred and fifty thousand ballots 675 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 3: under the auspices of conducting a recount effort. 676 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 1: I believe he already sees Yeah, he did. 677 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 4: He already sees them. 678 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, and I think that what is fascinating here 679 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 3: is the Attorney General, Rob Bonta, said that this sheriff 680 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 3: has no probable cause for such an investigation. The court 681 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 3: actually did not agree with the Attorney General. What I 682 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 3: think this does is put people in harm's way. They 683 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,839 Speaker 3: are afraid about what is happening Again, Andrew, you talked 684 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 3: about a solution in search a problem. They're going on 685 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 3: looking for voter fraud when in fact it says there 686 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 3: have only been seventy one cases a voter fraud in 687 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 3: the past thirty two years in California, and those are 688 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 3: voter fraud convictions despite California County more than eleven point 689 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 3: five million ballots in November in the special election alone. 690 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 3: So that, I think is what is an issue here again, 691 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 3: then being emboldened by the Steve Bannons of the world, 692 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 3: by the Heritage Foundations of the world by Project twenty 693 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,959 Speaker 3: twenty five that also deals with voting. So yes, what's 694 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,719 Speaker 3: happening in Mississippi and why this case was before the 695 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 3: Supreme Court have everything to do with this. So from 696 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 3: Mississippi to Cali, we see this problem happening. 697 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: So in California. Just so that listeners, all of us 698 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,320 Speaker 1: can let this sink in a sheriff of a county 699 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 1: is able to not off of a referral from the 700 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: prosecutor's office. Right, that's genuinely generally how a investigation out 701 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,279 Speaker 1: of nowhere thin air comes in to formation, because you 702 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: don't just investigate for no reason. You investigate with the 703 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: intention to prosecute and hold accountable people who have done 704 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:07,720 Speaker 1: something wrong. 705 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 4: Or unless your intention is intimidation, which. 706 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: Is who are guided by other intentions, that's extrac That's 707 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: exactly right. So all I'm saying is that if imagine 708 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: where you live, your county sheriff deciding that they have 709 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 1: the power to go and seize the ballots of another 710 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: constitutionally elected officer. Almost in every place, Supervisors of elections 711 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 1: are elected, Secretary of states in some cases are appointed, 712 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: but many of them are elected going into that jurisdiction 713 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 1: off of a right wing conspiracy. That's right, that the 714 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 1: votes that were tallied don't match what they believe the 715 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,720 Speaker 1: actual turnout numbers represented in that county. 716 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 6: Right, Andrew the Attorney general not to cut you off, 717 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 6: even said no, he said, please, let's let let me 718 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 6: let me investigate before you, before you continue down this path. 719 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 6: Let me see where these allegations are coming from, if 720 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 6: it's even founded. He's like, no, I'm all sat, I know. 721 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 6: I haven't talked to and I'm like, this is wild 722 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:03,959 Speaker 6: the world that we live in. Again, to your point 723 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,359 Speaker 6: about literally creating a solution for a problem we don't have. 724 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 6: This administration is good for that, Maggan is good for that. 725 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 6: I think of the trans issue in sports, there really 726 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 6: isn't an issue. There isn't if this is a big 727 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 6: issue and trans boys are taking over girls' sports in 728 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 6: high school and in college. But you ran on that 729 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 6: like it was such an issue. These are not real things, 730 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 6: and people are being sit in their mind, They're like, 731 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 6: this is happening. One is too many? By fourteen people 732 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 6: who voted illegally? Is too many? Forty seventy seven people 733 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 6: throw out these random numbers. It's just too many. And 734 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 6: that's what's happening right now in real time. 735 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 1: I'm curious from y'all's perspective whether or not you think, 736 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 1: and again we'll get to the Supreme Court cases. Is 737 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 1: really important that we all stay abreast of this. But 738 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 1: what do you think democrats forget democrats, lovers of democracy, 739 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,439 Speaker 1: people who value the rights that we have and want 740 00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 1: to see them expanded and not constricted. How should we 741 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,440 Speaker 1: be talking about this if we know that most reasonable people, 742 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 1: but Car, you invoked this folks in the Bibles are saying, 743 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 1: what's the problem with you're being able to produce ID 744 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,800 Speaker 1: when we know it's more complicated than that. How should 745 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 1: we be talking about this in a way that validates 746 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 1: some of the reasonableness of the of the argument around 747 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 1: identification with what is draconian and what they are doing 748 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: as as repult. If we had advice and somebody was 749 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 1: on the listening end of our advice, what would it 750 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 1: be around how this thing ought to be argued innovated? 751 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:35,879 Speaker 12: Car? 752 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: If you're talking, you're muted. 753 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 2: I'm sorry my house phone was ringing, so im mute 754 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 2: at myself.

But weren't nobody gonna bother them. 774 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 2: It was that type of intimidation, that kind of overt intimidation, 775 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 2: we're gonna see you up with physical I'm sorry, Nick, 776 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 2: we're gonna mess you up with physical vie violence type 777 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 2: of intimidation that we could see, and we just built 778 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,720 Speaker 2: our mindset to say that nobody was going to stop 779 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 2: us from getting to the polls. Black folks always say, 780 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 2: you know, we're going to overcome this, whatever hurdle they 781 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 2: put in our way. We're going to overcome this. So 782 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,239 Speaker 2: my first piece of advice is one that nobody's really 783 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 2: going to like.

We haven't focused on judges, we haven't focused 800 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 2: on Supreme Court justices, and that's coming to bite us 801 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 2: in the ass Supervisors of elections, supervisors of elections, those 802 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,479 Speaker 2: things matter. And actually what we're seeing right now because 803 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 2: of the West Coast the sheriffs. Because if the sheriff 804 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,760 Speaker 2: has the audacity to walk into a precinct and seize ballots, 805 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:29,840 Speaker 2: what is he doing on the side, He's probably sprinkling 806 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 2: a little coke on your son when he pulls them 807 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 2: over for a minor traffic violation, right, So I mean 808 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 2: there is a direct correlation, trust me. So I just 809 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 2: think that we have to begin to prepare ourselves for 810 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:44,320 Speaker 2: what the endgame is. Work backwards and preparing for an election, 811 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 2: running for office, electing to people, and right now, it's 812 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:51,840 Speaker 2: important for our local elected officials mayors. Shout out to 813 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 2: all the mayors we love, but they're going to have 814 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:58,239 Speaker 2: to utilize their platform to raise their voices about this 815 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 2: issue because they are closest to the ground. Mayor, city 816 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,479 Speaker 2: council people, school board people need to be teaching people 817 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 2: about what the Save Act is. Of course, you don't 818 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 2: have a vote on it, but Randa Woolfin's voice is 819 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 2: probably more powerful in Alabama than even those people who 820 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 2: are federally elected. Frank Scott's voice in Little Rock is 821 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 2: more powerful than people who are federally elected, and so 822 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 2: I empower all of those local elected officials where we 823 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 2: still have some success. Chris Hollins in Houston, Texas. I mean, 824 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 2: make sure that you're raising your voice using your platform 825 00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,919 Speaker 2: so people really understand what the Save Act is when 826 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 2: we talk about it and mention it. So those are 827 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 2: my three kind of tangible things that we have to 828 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,320 Speaker 2: do to prepare for what is this tsunami. 829 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: Carrion Angela as well as Bikari speaking of the preparing 830 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 1: for what may be right, the potential, the inevitable, the possible, 831 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 1: the plausible, and. 832 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:54,720 Speaker 2: Nobody knows. 833 00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: This week, the United States Supreme Court heard or arguments 834 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 1: based on a case coming out of Mississippi where the 835 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 1: state of Mississippi, run by Republicans during the COVID era, 836 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 1: passed the law that allowed for ballots that were mailed 837 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:20,960 Speaker 1: and postmarked by election day to be counted in the 838 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 1: total count of the votes that are cast. And just 839 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:28,359 Speaker 1: so that folks know, it's about thirty days or so 840 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:32,360 Speaker 1: after the election the actual election day takes place that 841 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 1: those votes then are formally certified, which then leads to 842 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,839 Speaker 1: whatever the official outcome is of that race. So there 843 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 1: is already a period that is built in for the 844 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 1: curing and the certification of the votes that are cast. Well, 845 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 1: the National Republican Party took issue with the Republicans in 846 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: Mississippi taking their marching orders from Trump and are saying 847 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,719 Speaker 1: no election days. One day you vote, you count those 848 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 1: ballots on that one day. In any that comes in 849 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 1: the mail after that should not be, should not be, 850 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 1: should not be counted. So that's a very hairy, just 851 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 1: sort of picture of what the case is. That is 852 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 1: before the courts and the jurists had their opportunity to 853 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 1: ask questions, which oftentimes gives us a window into how 854 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 1: they might decide the ultimate case. Let's hear a little 855 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 1: bit of what we here heard from the justices this week. 856 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,799 Speaker 13: Should ballots that arrive after election day be allowed to 857 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 13: be counted even if they're postmarked by election day? Mississippis 858 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,120 Speaker 13: Solicitor General says yes. 859 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 5: States have allowed that for over a century. Congress has 860 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 5: respected it, no one challenged it until now. The question 861 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 5: is whether Congress in eighteen forty five blocked that practice. 862 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 5: The answer is no. 863 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 13: Fourteen states plus Washington, d C. As well as the 864 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 13: territories of Guam, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands 865 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 13: accept late arriving ballots, a practice lawyers for the Republican 866 00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:57,560 Speaker 13: National Committee and the Trump administration say should be banned. 867 00:44:57,840 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 2: I would say that the day of the election is 868 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,840 Speaker 2: the days the last day in which all the ballots 869 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 2: are cast and they are received into official custody. 870 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 13: The three liberal justices raising concerns about ballots received from 871 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,879 Speaker 13: those serving in the US military, also citing the long 872 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 13: history of counting them after election day and the lack 873 00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:17,880 Speaker 13: of federal laws prohibiting it. 874 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 3: Congress just said, whatever the state has decided with regard 875 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 3: to ballot received dead lines is going to apply here. 876 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 2: Correct, And that's been the case for one hundred and 877 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 2: eighty years. 878 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 1: Y're on, So one hundred and eighty years. This has 879 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 1: been a practice in the United States of validating and 880 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 1: counting those votes so long as they've been postmarked. And 881 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:39,319 Speaker 1: y'all may remember this with joy. When the Joy was 882 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:43,600 Speaker 1: appointed the Postmaster General by Donald Trump, and we had 883 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:47,200 Speaker 1: all these delays and then shut down enclosures of post 884 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 1: offices around the country. A lot of us were really 885 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 1: operating in fear that they would use the postal service 886 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:56,400 Speaker 1: and mail in ballots as a way to slow down, 887 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,799 Speaker 1: potentially the delivery of mail from some places, so that 888 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:04,240 Speaker 1: if fail outside the reasonable period for votes to be counted, 889 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 1: so on and so forth. So what you could depend on, 890 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:08,400 Speaker 1: and by the way, the federal government depends on this 891 00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 1: when it comes to our taxes, that so long as 892 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 1: your taxes are postponed by the date that taxes are due, 893 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,279 Speaker 1: they are technically on time at the point that the 894 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:21,880 Speaker 1: federal government receives that mail and to their offices. The 895 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 1: federal government already recognizes postmark date as a legitimate date 896 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 1: to meet the deadline. Right, but in this case, somehow 897 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 1: the law's been transfigured. What do y'all thay, what's your 898 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,760 Speaker 1: take on this case and what you think may happen? 899 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:40,799 Speaker 6: The overall issue for me, and when I listen, and 900 00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:42,439 Speaker 6: I'm glad that I'm a guest, but when I listen 901 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 6: to you all talk, and I know that everyone at 902 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 6: home who's watching and listening understands that the issue is 903 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 6: is that this man is trying to steal the election. 904 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 6: It is in place, and it's happening, and we can 905 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:54,480 Speaker 6: talk about all these different specific ways in which it's happening, 906 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:56,960 Speaker 6: so that we can be well informed. But all I'm 907 00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 6: saying is that I sit here and I watch in 908 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,239 Speaker 6: real time, and I almost and I don't want to 909 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:03,759 Speaker 6: use the H word, but it feels very hopeless. It 910 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:05,719 Speaker 6: feels like and that's when you said, where do we 911 00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,920 Speaker 6: get this? What kind of advice? And then McCary says, Okay, 912 00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:11,480 Speaker 6: we should make sure that we pay attention to different 913 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:14,359 Speaker 6: different elections and make sure that we are putting people 914 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:16,359 Speaker 6: in places and positions where they can stop this from 915 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 6: happening in real time, but preparing for the worst. I 916 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 6: am watching that no one has any real integrity, No 917 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,640 Speaker 6: one within this no one within this administration is a leader. 918 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:30,319 Speaker 6: Everyone is following suit and it terrifies me in real time. 919 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,839 Speaker 6: And for someone who grew up in California and it's 920 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 6: always late, trust me, my ballot was just right on time, 921 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 6: and put it right. It's six fifty nine. You still 922 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 6: can come and get it whatever time it was. That's 923 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:42,839 Speaker 6: what it is. And I'm watching every single thing put 924 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 6: in place across this nation to make sure that this 925 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:48,799 Speaker 6: man stays in this position of power. And it's terrifying 926 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 6: to me. 927 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:52,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that should be, I mean it should be. 928 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:55,440 Speaker 2: It should be terrifying. But with that, with that terrifying, 929 00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 2: terrifying feeling, it should not necessarcessarily be hopeless. But I 930 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:06,279 Speaker 2: would articulate that we should hope that people have a 931 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,959 Speaker 2: sense of urgency. And I think and I think that 932 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 2: the urgency is missing from this discussion because we have 933 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,360 Speaker 2: been so beat up and put upon for the past 934 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,200 Speaker 2: eight ten years, and you know, and black folk much longer. 935 00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 2: But just since Trump came down that escalator in twenty 936 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:28,840 Speaker 2: fifteen and just a degradation and the language and you know, 937 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 2: calling Mexicans rapist. That's how he came out the gate, right, 938 00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,359 Speaker 2: you know, all of these things that we see. And 939 00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 2: I was telling people, I was describing people about being 940 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:42,120 Speaker 2: on CNN when when when I got higher, Barack Obama 941 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,360 Speaker 2: was still president. It's like we had one new cycle 942 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:47,319 Speaker 2: a day, right, you talked about one issue a day. 943 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 2: Now it's like perverbably drinking out of a fire hose. 944 00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:54,239 Speaker 2: You have eight nine news cycles in a day. So 945 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 2: it becomes exhausting. And what we're asking people to do 946 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:00,400 Speaker 2: is and it's hard. The audacity of us sit in 947 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 2: these beautiful homes and sit in the comfort of our chairs, 948 00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:04,800 Speaker 2: and people are trying to make ends meet, they have 949 00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:07,279 Speaker 2: kids that are sick. You know, they are trying to 950 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 2: make sure that they work there forty hours a week 951 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:11,680 Speaker 2: and still work their other job and do all of 952 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,440 Speaker 2: these things. And we're still asking them to have urgency 953 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:17,440 Speaker 2: about a process that they now see is so fragile. 954 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,839 Speaker 2: Democracy is so fragile. The audacity for us to do that, 955 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:24,359 Speaker 2: I think also lacks some self awareness, because we have 956 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:27,319 Speaker 2: to be empathetic enough to understand what they're going through, 957 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 2: but also understanding the preservation of democracy is of the 958 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:32,240 Speaker 2: utmost importance right now, and there. 959 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:36,000 Speaker 1: Is push back there. Yes, I agree with you that 960 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:39,720 Speaker 1: there is a need to recognize what people are feeling 961 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 1: and how they're being put upon. But I think part 962 00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:46,359 Speaker 1: of our jobs here is to one distill as best 963 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:50,200 Speaker 1: we can what folks have coming at them so that 964 00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 1: they're not surprised, called unawares, and then retreat because they 965 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 1: weren't prepared for it. I think part of what we 966 00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: have to do is not only make people feel urgency, 967 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 1: but also help people to build a plan of how 968 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,760 Speaker 1: they're going to navigate all these challenges that are coming 969 00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 1: at us to still get that vote done. Because if 970 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,680 Speaker 1: we disconnect in any way, shape or form the struggles 971 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 1: folks are having to make their forty hours a week 972 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:15,960 Speaker 1: to keep their kids fed, to keep a roof over 973 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,480 Speaker 1: their head. If we disconnect that from the people who 974 00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,680 Speaker 1: are in the positions of power making those decisions, shame 975 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 1: on us. Because if you think you can sit where 976 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:27,359 Speaker 1: you sit, wherever it is you sit in this at 977 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 1: this time, in this conversation and disconnect your issues, your 978 00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:36,160 Speaker 1: highest hopes, ambitions for your family, or your deepest, darkest 979 00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:38,840 Speaker 1: fears that that for you, yourself and your family. If 980 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,200 Speaker 1: you can disconnect that from the politics that are at work, 981 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:44,359 Speaker 1: then you are a fool, because they are not disconnected. 982 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,640 Speaker 2: They are one in sense. I hear you and I 983 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:48,799 Speaker 2: agree that not you. No no, no, no no no no no, 984 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:50,839 Speaker 2: I mean I mean no. You just do that off 985 00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:53,319 Speaker 2: air consistently and it hurts you. Oh no, I thank you, 986 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:56,879 Speaker 2: But but I wanted to I want to thank you. 987 00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:59,759 Speaker 2: I wanted to quote. Let me let me quote Mike 988 00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:02,839 Speaker 2: type in here to respond to you. Okay, I think 989 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 2: it was Mike because. 990 00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,439 Speaker 4: That gets us into sports. Keep going. 991 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:07,359 Speaker 2: But Mike Tyson, I think is the one who said 992 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,280 Speaker 2: it best. Everybody has a plan until they get punched 993 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:12,080 Speaker 2: in the face, right, And so you know, we talk 994 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:14,200 Speaker 2: about it on this show a lot of giving. Carrie 995 00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:16,319 Speaker 2: asked me for some things, and I gave some tangible things, 996 00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:18,800 Speaker 2: and her response is is very on point and correct, 997 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:21,960 Speaker 2: like those plans sound good, but day after day we're 998 00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:25,200 Speaker 2: getting punched in the jaw like we are. It's hard 999 00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:28,880 Speaker 2: and when you take those beatings consistently, we have to 1000 00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:31,360 Speaker 2: find some way. My only point is I don't know 1001 00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 2: if it's through uh you know, a charismatic figure in leadership, 1002 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:36,880 Speaker 2: or I don't know if it's through continuously preaching the 1003 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 2: same message we're preaching. I don't want people to have 1004 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,480 Speaker 2: a Messiah complex by any stretch, but we have to 1005 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 2: find some way to kind of bridge that gap of 1006 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,799 Speaker 2: that hopelessness with that urgency and find find a way 1007 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 2: for people to meet somewhere in the middle. 1008 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:50,719 Speaker 1: I don't disagree. I would just say, imagine how many 1009 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:54,719 Speaker 1: punches Tyson was able to avoid because he anticipated, right, 1010 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:57,600 Speaker 1: we know the ones that landed and must have done. 1011 00:51:58,719 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 1: They were few. 1012 00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 6: And probity that it takes both. Everyone takes both. 1013 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:06,839 Speaker 1: It takes both. But the last thing that I think 1014 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:12,120 Speaker 1: we can do is in any way delude people into 1015 00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:13,759 Speaker 1: thinking that this is going to be a walk in 1016 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 1: the park, watchewing gum. It's not gonna be that. 1017 00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,360 Speaker 3: It's not, And neither is the month of March in 1018 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:22,319 Speaker 3: twenty twenty five or in twenty twenty six. There March 1019 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 3: madness means something completely different these days. We spoke a 1020 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:28,879 Speaker 3: lot about the March madness happening politically, but we got 1021 00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:30,080 Speaker 3: Carrie Champion. 1022 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,400 Speaker 4: Here, Andrew, So what you say we pivot to March madness? 1023 00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:33,520 Speaker 6: Beautiful transition? 1024 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:36,960 Speaker 1: What's your gay?

You don't 1036 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:08,240 Speaker 6: have to walk us through the whole tournament. Because everybody's 1037 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 6: bracket is busted, no matter what so I want to 1038 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 6: know one on the men's and the women's side, And 1039 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 6: it's pretty easy if you just say the final four 1040 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:18,080 Speaker 6: teams that will ultimately be vying for the national championship, 1041 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,160 Speaker 6: and then it's dumb down to two. You can have 1042 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 6: a prediction if you want. It's up to you. I 1043 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:25,799 Speaker 6: I don't mind. But Bakari, did you submit? Because I 1044 00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:26,120 Speaker 6: know you. 1045 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:27,600 Speaker 4: I know you didn't do his homework. 1046 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,520 Speaker 6: He didn't do his homework. He can guess though, right 1047 00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:31,520 Speaker 6: he said, he said, give me your final four on 1048 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:33,360 Speaker 6: the men's side, we'll start there, unless you want to 1049 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:34,240 Speaker 6: go on the women's first. 1050 00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,480 Speaker 2: No, we I want to save the women's but I 1051 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 2: can do the men's because my final four is busted. 1052 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:40,719 Speaker 2: Just the f y I have climb because I had. 1053 00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 2: I have Florida going back to back and winning national 1054 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:45,400 Speaker 2: championship on the men's side, but on the man I 1055 00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:52,120 Speaker 2: have Michigan, Arizona, Houston and Yukon uh, South Carolina huh. 1056 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 2: And on the midside, no, and then I have Arizona 1057 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:56,319 Speaker 2: winning it all. I think Arizona has been the best 1058 00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:56,879 Speaker 2: team all year. 1059 00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:58,480 Speaker 4: That's fair, okay. 1060 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:00,600 Speaker 6: And then on the so on a women's side, you 1061 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 6: want to do it. 1062 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 2: That on the women's side. On the women's side, the 1063 00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:04,840 Speaker 2: final four is gonna be amazing.

And then 1066 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 2: on the other side, I think you have l s 1067 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 2: U and Texas. The LSU beat U C l A, 1068 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,319 Speaker 2: And I think L s U and Texas and I 1069 00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:20,799 Speaker 2: think I think LSU have they beaten Texas this year, 1070 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:22,799 Speaker 2: So I think LSU wins that game. And I think 1071 00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:24,880 Speaker 2: South Carolina beat you, Khan, and I think you have 1072 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:28,160 Speaker 2: a l s U South Carolina matchup in the National Championship, 1073 00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:32,360 Speaker 2: the highest rated TV women's basketball in the history of 1074 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,960 Speaker 2: all things, all things, and we beat l Shit. 1075 00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:38,640 Speaker 6: He's doing emotion, that's all emotion.

I think Caro 1080 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,320 Speaker 6: losson and when he's doing that duke is something special. 1081 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:49,920 Speaker 6: You got to watch that game for a lot of 1082 00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:53,680 Speaker 6: different reasons.

I think 1131 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,200 Speaker 14: it will be a net positive. It has already been 1132 00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:19,680 Speaker 14: a positive in women's sports because the free market doesn't 1133 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:22,720 Speaker 14: care about your feelings. The free market just wants to 1134 00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 14: put dollars to where it thinks it can generate value. 1135 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:27,800 Speaker 14: And when you have, for instance, women of basketball in 1136 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:32,080 Speaker 14: college making millions of dollars, my friend Flage Johnson, she 1137 00:57:32,120 --> 00:57:34,680 Speaker 14: stayed an extra year at LSU because she was getting paid. 1138 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:36,720 Speaker 2: So well, there, God blessed. That's amazing. 1139 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:40,400 Speaker 14: And again, it doesn't happen because of feminism. It doesn't 1140 00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 14: happen because of social issues. It happens because the free 1141 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:47,040 Speaker 14: market is saying you and your following are so worth it, 1142 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:49,640 Speaker 14: I need to give you money in exchange for your audience. 1143 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,080 Speaker 3: I just wanted the part where he 're clear that 1144 00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:56,600 Speaker 3: he's invested into University of Virginia with Virginia's women's basketball program, 1145 00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:59,000 Speaker 3: and it did make a difference, and that's why they're 1146 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 3: in my final four Andrew Guild. 1147 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, like I said, I'm dutiful in my assignments, 1148 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:06,320 Speaker 1: except I fell off on this one. So I'm just 1149 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:08,440 Speaker 1: gonna decide which if you had the best bracket in 1150 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:09,760 Speaker 1: the one that I think is going to go all 1151 00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:10,000 Speaker 1: the way. 1152 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:13,080 Speaker 2: Hell for not miss missing a production. 1153 00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:18,800 Speaker 4: That's the smart complete But she threw you off on 1154 00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 4: U C l A.
