Speaker 1: At y'all, what's up, Future me breaking in with some
Speaker 1: breaking news. It's future me still past, y'all. I called
Speaker 1: myself trying to finish all these episodes before the holidays
Speaker 1: coming in. Uh so this is pre Christmas when I'm
Speaker 1: making this. So I called myself trying to, like you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, get everything done for the holidays.
Speaker 1: But I'll be forgetting how quick the news be moving.
Speaker 1: So check this out today is what's today? December fourteen,
Speaker 1: Like see'all earlier. I'll get sey'all ahead of the game.
Speaker 1: I am. The text messages is leaking. Listen, dog, these
Speaker 1: these Trump folks, y'ad, y'all don't know what the hell
Speaker 1: you do? Nigging shot ahead and he texted Lord Ingram
Speaker 1: texted thee. Donald Trump Junior texted is thinking like, hey,
Speaker 1: Dad Pop Trump, Mr President Nigga say something. They was
Speaker 1: texting Mark Meadows, Mark Meadows is who this? When I
Speaker 1: talked to aboudy eye earlier this they was texting this
Speaker 1: nigga like they all knew for years the thing we
Speaker 1: all knew that they all knew. They all scared a trunk.
Speaker 1: They would try to tell this nigging like Yo, you
Speaker 1: need to tell these fools, Uh, this don't look good.
Speaker 1: A my g that boy Trump like it though he
Speaker 1: didn't do nothing. Even his own son was like that, uh,
Speaker 1: you gotta tell them to stop, which again makes us
Speaker 1: all know because they knew it was one person that
Speaker 1: can start it and there was one person that could
Speaker 1: stop it. But then again, y'all knew that too. So
Speaker 1: with these fools being like, Yo, this is privileged, Yo,
Speaker 1: hold me in content because right look, don't look I'm
Speaker 1: pleading the fifth n cause we know you do. Cause
Speaker 1: all right, all right, anyway politics. Honestly, the hardest part
Speaker 1: of this episode was figuring out which phrase I'm gonna
Speaker 1: use to give us an in road to what I
Speaker 1: want to talk about, because there's a few nuances in
Speaker 1: the meetings of each of these things. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like if somebody says, hey, hey, say that
Speaker 1: to my face and nowadays you you know, you talk
Speaker 1: about like these net bangers. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: These foods that be hard online, but they won't never
Speaker 1: pull up in person, you know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 1: so when you say, hey, hey, hey, why don't you
Speaker 1: why don't you bring that. That's another thing. You say, Hey,
Speaker 1: bring that same energy when I see you. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, When I pull up on you, I
Speaker 1: want to see that same energy. Now, what was all
Speaker 1: that you was talking online? You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So that's basically it's like, okay, you you know you're
Speaker 1: really scared. You you're talking real big right now. But
Speaker 1: we know you actually a Howard and it's a challenge
Speaker 1: to be like, all right, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Say what you mean, Say what you said, then tell him,
Speaker 1: Tell him what you were saying online. Tell me if
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, to say it to my face.
Speaker 1: Is basically like I'm challenging you. You was talking real
Speaker 1: hard behind my back, but you're too scared to say
Speaker 1: it in front of me because you know I'm gonna
Speaker 1: fire on you. But one of the greatest gifts that
Speaker 1: has been given to the culture, y'all can feel however
Speaker 1: you feel about the phrase the culture. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But one of the greatest gifts was given
Speaker 1: to us was by the harmy Kevin Hart when he
Speaker 1: gave us his uncle Richard Jr. When he got out
Speaker 1: of jail say it with your chess. Last neural saying
Speaker 1: something with your chess, saying with your whole chess that
Speaker 1: that means you gotta say it like you mean it.
Speaker 1: At least that's what he think it means. That's still
Speaker 1: one of the greatest stand ups Kevin has ever given us,
Speaker 1: say with your chess. Let's talk about the former d
Speaker 1: O j OH official Jeffrey Cark talking about I ain't
Speaker 1: coming to testify in the January six committee being like,
Speaker 1: come out here and say it with your chest. Bring
Speaker 1: that energy to my face. Po politics, y'all. All right, Welcome, welcome, welcome,
Speaker 1: uh epi kuanza because that's the only holiday I recognized.
Speaker 1: Now I'm just playing. I'm down for any of them.
Speaker 1: You get a day off work anyway, man, Listen today,
Speaker 1: there's gonna be quite a vocabulary list for you to
Speaker 1: understand what's happening. I tell you watch this. Once I
Speaker 1: tell you the vocabulary like you if you're from the city,
Speaker 1: and then you gonna understand exactly what's happening right here.
Speaker 1: Because once you know what they mean by these phrases,
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, I see, I see what's happening in here?
Speaker 1: All right? So I'm gonna talk to tell y'all what
Speaker 1: it means to be held in contempt of court or
Speaker 1: contempt of Congress, and tell you what it means about
Speaker 1: something to be privileged information, and what it means to
Speaker 1: plead the fifth. They all mean something. And you know,
Speaker 1: there's a way that you can when it comes to
Speaker 1: testifying before Congress, just get him a written letter or
Speaker 1: do an interview without having to officially testify, because once
Speaker 1: you officially testify us, that's a whole different story, right,
Speaker 1: And you can say, there's a lot of ways to
Speaker 1: not answer a question. That's what I'm gonna get into.
Speaker 1: One way is to be like, y'all, this is this
Speaker 1: is privileged information, whether it's attorney client, whether it's uh,
Speaker 1: you know, you're a psychologist, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: It's like in in that counselor that situation, or it's
Speaker 1: like you work for the president, so it's executive privilege.
Speaker 1: And I don't have to tell you this because it's
Speaker 1: an issue of security. I ain't gotta tell you, which
Speaker 1: is very different than being like, I plead the fifth.
Speaker 1: But we're gonna get into all that. But let's back up.
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna talk to you about a few dutes.
Speaker 1: Who was basically like, man, why don't y'all sit down
Speaker 1: somewhere you know you ain't gonna do nothing like look
Speaker 1: fall back, have several seats. Y'all ain't gonna do nothing.
Speaker 1: Quit asking me, because if you're asking, I ain't coming.
Speaker 1: I don't care. Bring your send your goons. I'm not coming.
Speaker 1: I ain't scared of y'all. Come to the hood, Come
Speaker 1: get me the There's a couple of dudes that I
Speaker 1: like that and I'm gonna go through each of those.
Speaker 1: Is this This is gonna be fun, Like I just
Speaker 1: I got to have fun right now because these these
Speaker 1: brutes to be a wretch. So we've talked about this
Speaker 1: committee before the January six committee, trying to decide when
Speaker 1: I decide, trying to really investigate, get their brain around
Speaker 1: what the hell happened and how did we let this
Speaker 1: happen on our watch? Um as far as the insurrection,
Speaker 1: the siege on the capitol, who's really in charge, who
Speaker 1: was calling the shots? Who knew what was going down?
Speaker 1: Why y'all ain't do nothing? Did you notice what's gonna
Speaker 1: happen before it was gonna happen. Did you orchestrate this happening?
Speaker 1: And once it was going down, was you helping? And
Speaker 1: why do you why the hell you think this is okay?
Speaker 1: Because y'all out here talking about Man, y'all ain't gonna
Speaker 1: do shit. And you know, I think if they do.
Speaker 1: We've talked about this before. If they do, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be something very light, right. But some folks in the
Speaker 1: committee is like, no, Nick, I ain't letting that ship ride.
Speaker 1: Y'all almost had us killed. I know your attitude about this.
Speaker 1: It's like, man, you're not gonna do but like, look,
Speaker 1: let me show you what we're gonna do. Work, Come
Speaker 1: catch my faith. There's some people on the January Sist
Speaker 1: Committee that's like, oh, I'm not okay, Come say it
Speaker 1: to my face. Then I ain't gonna do nothing, all right,
Speaker 1: bet come say it to my face. All right? You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like some of the foods is
Speaker 1: like that, okay, bring that same energy here, come say
Speaker 1: it to me. So they're asking questions like, all right,
Speaker 1: who was there? Who knew? Who didn't know? How can
Speaker 1: we hold you all accountable for some of this, which,
Speaker 1: as y'all know, again, if I mean, you can watch
Speaker 1: just watching movie. You ain't even gotta be from the
Speaker 1: city to know just watching movie. You know, uh, foot
Speaker 1: soldiers moved when they told to be moved. Somebody called
Speaker 1: a shot. Somebody gave a green light. And remember we
Speaker 1: talked about this a long time ago. Like that, I mean,
Speaker 1: clearly that was a green light. What what what old
Speaker 1: Trump he did like that? Nobody misinterpreted that mug you
Speaker 1: say it as vague as you won't, but I was
Speaker 1: a green light, you know what I'm saying. But you know, Trump,
Speaker 1: he ain't the sharpest tool in the shed. Or maybe
Speaker 1: he is and I just don't know. Maybe he just
Speaker 1: playing this game like this. But the point is, you
Speaker 1: gotta have executioners. You gotta have doers, you gotta have
Speaker 1: you gotta have the you know, shooters if you will
Speaker 1: to part and that's gonna go make it happen. After
Speaker 1: you called the shot, right that that that pulls off
Speaker 1: the logistical parts of these situations, which which is normally
Speaker 1: your staff, you know what I'm saying. So we need
Speaker 1: to start talking to the staff because like VAM, you
Speaker 1: mean to tell me. Look, look, because here's here's here's
Speaker 1: the two options. I think we may have brought this
Speaker 1: up before. Either you knew exactly what was going down
Speaker 1: and you let it go down. You saw it was happening,
Speaker 1: and you ain't stopped it because you liked it, which
Speaker 1: means what we all thought, which is, this man is
Speaker 1: a madman, is not fit for office. That man is
Speaker 1: so selfish that he willing to burn his own vice
Speaker 1: president for this mug. He'll burn the whole city down
Speaker 1: if he can't have it like that's that's what that means.
Speaker 1: Or you so soft, you so not a boss. You
Speaker 1: have no control over these people and they do what
Speaker 1: the hell they want to do and you couldn't have
Speaker 1: stopped them. Means you created a monster and you ain't
Speaker 1: the boss you're trying to tell us you are, because
Speaker 1: Data did. Data took matters in their own hands and
Speaker 1: you can't stop them. You don't even know what they
Speaker 1: was doing. You don't even you ain't even got your
Speaker 1: hood and check the niggas don't listen to you. They
Speaker 1: do what they won't you. I mean, these are the
Speaker 1: only two options. So the January six commedie is trying
Speaker 1: to figure out, Okay, which one is it. So there's
Speaker 1: a couple of heads. They asked to come in to
Speaker 1: make some statements. Steve Mannon we'll get to him, Mark
Speaker 1: Meadows will get to him. And Jeffrey Clark, which is
Speaker 1: the one made made me decide, Okay, yeah, we need
Speaker 1: to do an episode about this, maybe because he used
Speaker 1: to work for the Department of Justice. So, like, I
Speaker 1: just think this is such an interesting story and it's
Speaker 1: so hood. So you asked them to come make make
Speaker 1: some statements. Now let's get into this vocabulary, all right,
Speaker 1: let's take a breakthrough and here here some headlight slaps.
Speaker 1: I can't believe I said it like that because I
Speaker 1: just think it's funny slaps. All right, So here we
Speaker 1: go as a banger. Wasn't it nicest move? That's called
Speaker 1: a white boy on Earth right there? Anyway, I'm talking
Speaker 1: about headlights. Anyway, when the Congress puts together a committee,
Speaker 1: they're investigating something. And now granted they can't necessarily put
Speaker 1: you in jail, but they could recommend jail, right unless
Speaker 1: you start acting, unless you start tripping, you know what what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Because remember, the Congress is not a court.
Speaker 1: The the courts are courts, right, but they could be
Speaker 1: like a h unless they hold you in contempt, in
Speaker 1: which case that's a misdemeanor. You understand what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So when the Congress is investigating something or trying to
Speaker 1: do something, they have the absolute right. When I absolute,
Speaker 1: I don't want to say it like that, but they
Speaker 1: have because that invokes something else. But anyway, they have
Speaker 1: a right to tell you to be like, hey, you
Speaker 1: need to come talk to us because we're trying to
Speaker 1: figure this thing out. So then they send which similar
Speaker 1: to court, they send a subpoena. Right subpoena is like, Yo,
Speaker 1: you gotta appear in court, you gotta come testify. Right,
Speaker 1: And there's some nuances I want to get in get
Speaker 1: in between between like testifying and interviews. Uh, being interviewed
Speaker 1: or asked some questions is different than like giving your
Speaker 1: your statement, Like that's a it's it. There's a lot
Speaker 1: to it. Look, just don't get into just just don't
Speaker 1: get in the system so that you ain't gotta worried
Speaker 1: about none of this. Right. Oh anyway, Um, when they
Speaker 1: ask you to come, you know what they expect you. Obviously,
Speaker 1: you gotta tell the truth. You gotta do what you
Speaker 1: gotta do. But sometimes you could be like nigger, I
Speaker 1: ain't coming, and then the Congress could decide like, uh,
Speaker 1: do you have a good reason to not come? And
Speaker 1: if you don't, they can do something called holding you
Speaker 1: in contempt, specifically contempt of Congress. Now, I'm gonna give
Speaker 1: you this thing called the Legal Information Institute. It's like
Speaker 1: an open source, open access law since ninety two, so
Speaker 1: you can you can, uh, if you want some like
Speaker 1: legal definitions from stuff, you can go find that. It's
Speaker 1: it's super helpful, right. Um, it's at Uh it's part
Speaker 1: of Cornell. So contempt of Congress. I'm gonna read to it.
Speaker 1: So check this out. Contempt of Congress is when an
Speaker 1: individual intentionally interferes with the congressional action. Congress has the
Speaker 1: power to restrain such individuals from interfering with those actions.
Speaker 1: It's a form of contempt, uh some or to contempt
Speaker 1: of court right now. Check this out on a recent more,
Speaker 1: congress abilities to hold individuals in contempt who interfere with
Speaker 1: its duties is considered and implied power of legislature. The
Speaker 1: U Supreme Court summarized this principle in nineteen seventeen in
Speaker 1: the case called um Oarshal versus Gordon stating, in virtue
Speaker 1: of the grant of legislative authorities, there will be power
Speaker 1: implied to deal with contempt insofar as authority was necessary
Speaker 1: to preserve and carry out the legislative authority given that is,
Speaker 1: although the Federal Constitution does not explicitly provide the Congress
Speaker 1: the power to hold individuals in contempt, such power is
Speaker 1: considered implied because without it, Congress would not effectively be
Speaker 1: able to carry out its duties. That makes sense. So
Speaker 1: there's no like written, like explicit law that says you
Speaker 1: could do this, but it's understood. It's like, nigga, how
Speaker 1: we're gonna do our job if I have no way
Speaker 1: of holding you accountable for not giving us a testimony?
Speaker 1: You follow me? Now, The question is, okay, so Congress
Speaker 1: say court say you're held in contempt. It's like nigga
Speaker 1: and okay, what does that mean? You feel me? It's
Speaker 1: almost like getting getting a ticket from them, uh, from
Speaker 1: them intersection cameras, nigga and okay, so I'm gonna show
Speaker 1: up in court. Well, okay, So if I'm gonna show
Speaker 1: up in court to pay this ticket or to or
Speaker 1: to fight this ticket, there wasn't no arresting officer. You're
Speaker 1: not gonna collect this money? What if I just don't pay?
Speaker 1: I ain't got it. So Nigga and jumps, I may
Speaker 1: have just gave you all game. That's why they took
Speaker 1: the camera the cameras out of the intersections in California
Speaker 1: because there's no way to collect because I'm like, nick,
Speaker 1: I didn't get it. It didn't come into mail. I
Speaker 1: don't know what happened, Like UK, hold be accountable for it.
Speaker 1: So what does it mean once you're held in contempt?
Speaker 1: What happens to you? Well, as of now, it's a misdemeanor,
Speaker 1: which means you could either get uh a thousand dollar fine.
Speaker 1: So it's like okay, cool break, you know, pay the
Speaker 1: fine and twelve months in prison. Nigger, you could go
Speaker 1: to jail for a year because like, okay, so there's
Speaker 1: that when you held in contempt, you can fight the contempt.
Speaker 1: I mean, but like, you know, good luck, my nigg
Speaker 1: In other words, it's like, hey, let me hie at
Speaker 1: you right quick, Hey, let me ask you a question,
Speaker 1: and you like, nigger, I ain't coming, And they're like,
Speaker 1: oh where you ain't coming? All right, homey, here's your
Speaker 1: listen Oh, you're gonna come and you like you could
Speaker 1: come get me then, and then they pull up on you.
Speaker 1: That's what happens, like, oh, you're not coming, Okay, we'll
Speaker 1: come get you right there. Oh yeah, so you know,
Speaker 1: be careful if you really show they're not gonna come
Speaker 1: up on your dad. Hey, they the niggas don't be outside,
Speaker 1: so I'm not worried about what they say. They tell
Speaker 1: me to come over and they ain't coming. Y'all don't
Speaker 1: be outside. Okay, we'll see who'll be outside or not.
Speaker 1: So Congress like, oh, nigga, we outside, you're not you're
Speaker 1: not coming. You're not you're not pulling up. Okay, we're
Speaker 1: gonna see. Now. The next thing I want to teach
Speaker 1: you all is this executive privilege. Now, these phrase I
Speaker 1: don't know if you'd be watching the news like I'll
Speaker 1: be watching the news. These latest phrases are are are
Speaker 1: are coming up. That's why I figured like, maybe let's
Speaker 1: take a time to let me tell you what this
Speaker 1: stuff means. So executive privilege has to do with the
Speaker 1: executive branch, right, executive branches. The president you know, everybody
Speaker 1: works in his in his crib. Now there isn't understanding
Speaker 1: that there's some stuff that like, for real, shouldn't be
Speaker 1: anybody else's business. Like the way we're conducting things were
Speaker 1: the way we you know, you lock in with who
Speaker 1: you lock in with like and in a lot of ways,
Speaker 1: that's just nobody's business. You know. If you talk to
Speaker 1: like like some like real thorough nigga is out, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying that that be outside that like
Speaker 1: really really gang banging. A lot of times they talk
Speaker 1: very vague and then like if even if you understand
Speaker 1: the slang, like if you understand the lexicon, the lingo,
Speaker 1: like how how dudes talk, it's still they really haven't
Speaker 1: told you anything. I watched this interview with the Big
Speaker 1: you Uh. He had a show called checking In. I
Speaker 1: watched his interview with him and ALTI Genesis, and he
Speaker 1: was asking him about like you know how you feel
Speaker 1: about like yo, when people come to the city, they're
Speaker 1: supposed to check in with you. And he was telling
Speaker 1: his story and the way that the way that alt
Speaker 1: was talking, which is another sign that you like, Okay,
Speaker 1: he funny. He do like the crypt Santa Claus. He
Speaker 1: be seawalking everywhere, he always smiling. He did the Keyshia
Speaker 1: cold cup like he's funny, but but he's no joke, right.
Speaker 1: So the way that he discussed it, he was like, look, man,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. You when you come in,
Speaker 1: it's like, look, man, I lock in with who I
Speaker 1: lock in with. And when I pull up to a city,
Speaker 1: man out. You know, I know what it is like.
Speaker 1: You know, I lock in with who I lock in with.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I tap in. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, and you know, let him you know,
Speaker 1: like I just be besides that, man, I'd be like
Speaker 1: staying on my own. You know what I'm saying, staying low.
Speaker 1: Just I locked in who I lock in with. I
Speaker 1: move where I move, you know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 1: and we we make our moves and we get out.
Speaker 1: You know what, damn? Did you just say it's because
Speaker 1: it's none of your business. Look, and I guarantee you
Speaker 1: big you knew exactly what he was talking about? Did
Speaker 1: he understood everything? And he understood like, well, we're recording
Speaker 1: this stuff, so I mean, I'm gonna tell you enough information.
Speaker 1: Did you need to know he respected ot respects the
Speaker 1: o G enough to like answer because big you O
Speaker 1: O G. You respect him enough to like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: answer your question. You know what I'm saying. Uh, I'm
Speaker 1: an answering the way. You know, I'm not gonna incriminate myself,
Speaker 1: my nick You don't like, you don't need to know,
Speaker 1: like we just you don't have to know it's it's
Speaker 1: this is this is gangster the gangster privilege. You unt
Speaker 1: to stand what I'm saying, Like you ain't all set.
Speaker 1: You don't get to know what's Like I remember even
Speaker 1: in my own family, this stuff they didn't tell me
Speaker 1: because I wasn't on the set. And I'm like, I'm related.
Speaker 1: They're like, no, you don't you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Like now we feel you know, just run around the corner,
Speaker 1: you know, real quick, blaho whoo. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: YadA YadA, will be right back like, oh, it's privileged,
Speaker 1: it's privileged information. So executive privilege again I'm reading from
Speaker 1: Cornell's law school. It's his Executive privilege is the power
Speaker 1: of the president and other officials in the executive branch
Speaker 1: to withhold certain form of confidential communication from the courts
Speaker 1: and the legislative branch. When executive privilege is invoked in litigation,
Speaker 1: the court should weigh its applicability by balancing the competing instrance.
Speaker 1: The Constitution is silent. Follow me, constitution ain't perfect. We're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about that little later, but at a later episode.
Speaker 1: But the Constitution is silent in executive power to withhold
Speaker 1: information from the courts or Congress. The privilege is rooted
Speaker 1: in the Separation of Powers doctrine that divided the power
Speaker 1: of the United States government into legislative, executive, and judicial branches.
Speaker 1: Are you following that. It's not like there's a law
Speaker 1: that says in the Constitution a this is called privilege.
Speaker 1: That's not there. Again, it's an implied thing, which is
Speaker 1: why you know, strict constitutionalists are like, NIGGD, do you
Speaker 1: even understand the document you're reading because it's ship that's
Speaker 1: not said in there? Dare nobody say that, right? I
Speaker 1: gotta figure it out based on what is there? So
Speaker 1: how are you gonna be a strict institutional list? What
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? Which gets into a whole
Speaker 1: conversation about law theory and when we're getting Supreme Court
Speaker 1: justices and then those dudes that testified in the impeachment
Speaker 1: trial for President Trump. Yeah, I should do a whole
Speaker 1: episode on that. Like the purists are like, look, they
Speaker 1: the this is a fixed document, they said, what they meant,
Speaker 1: our job is to do what it says. Others are like, well,
Speaker 1: they didn't cover everything, so we have to interpret it
Speaker 1: and retool it for now. But that's a whole other convo.
Speaker 1: But it's rooted in a separation of powers, which means
Speaker 1: I have to understand that, like, you don't have the
Speaker 1: right to make me tell you something that I don't
Speaker 1: think I should tell you that does Does that make sense?
Speaker 1: It's a separation of powers, like you don't got the
Speaker 1: power because if the Congress couldn't make you tell then
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, well then you've got more power than me.
Speaker 1: But the way that the system of checks and balances
Speaker 1: works is like, well, if you could you can assert
Speaker 1: that that like all right, na homie, Hey, this is
Speaker 1: privn of information. Man, I can't tell y'all, then the
Speaker 1: Congress has to go okay, or or whatever has to
Speaker 1: be like, or the courts have to be like okay,
Speaker 1: dang is that like I mean, does this apply? Like
Speaker 1: is that true? Or I mean if our lives are
Speaker 1: in danger. Then I get to be like, I don't know, homie,
Speaker 1: we could all die. You feel me like you could?
Speaker 1: This could kill our democracy, my nigga, Like, so I
Speaker 1: think maybe you gotta cough up some of this information.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying this is for the good of the
Speaker 1: nation by the homie, Like, I don't know if you
Speaker 1: can call this way. It sounds to me like you
Speaker 1: just don't want to snitch. That sounds like a little
Speaker 1: different than there's a difference between executive privilege and I'm
Speaker 1: just not trying to snitch. You do you feel me?
Speaker 1: So you gotta figure that out. You know, United States
Speaker 1: versus Nixon and the Watergate scandal, it established that even
Speaker 1: a president has a legal duty to provide evidence once
Speaker 1: communications with his aids when the information is relevant to
Speaker 1: a criminal case. You're following me that you know the
Speaker 1: Watergate scandal next on horror, that's my Nixon. That situation
Speaker 1: was like, look, man, you you you're facing criminal charges here,
Speaker 1: and this ship is really you can't you can't just
Speaker 1: always call it. And that's one thing that old Trump
Speaker 1: don't get nigked, like, you can't just you can't just
Speaker 1: claim executive privilege. Oh everything, big dog, like you ain't
Speaker 1: do your homework. There is a moment where we can
Speaker 1: make you talk. Y'all, ain't gonna do nothing, man, come
Speaker 1: get me, okay. And then lastly, I want to talk
Speaker 1: to you about pleading the Fifth. You know, when somebody
Speaker 1: says or somebody when you're hearing the Miranda rights like
Speaker 1: you have the right to remain silent. That is a
Speaker 1: reference to the Fifth Amendment, which is uh a UN
Speaker 1: amendment that says I have the right to not incriminate myself. Right,
Speaker 1: that's what that's what you're saying, is like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: plead this because if I were to answer this question,
Speaker 1: I am going to prove myself guilty. And I don't
Speaker 1: know if I'm ready to prove myself guilty. It's a
Speaker 1: cool like law, but it has a lot of implications.
Speaker 1: Now when I say implications, I mean that it's implied. Now.
Speaker 1: Old Trump he was like, you know when it was
Speaker 1: when it wasn't His homiesn't understand. He was like, why
Speaker 1: would you plead the Fifth if you've got nothing to hide?
Speaker 1: It sounds to me like you're guilty. You're trying not
Speaker 1: to because you're because it's about not incriminating yourself, right, right.
Speaker 1: So he's like, no, if you plead the fifth, that
Speaker 1: means you're guilty, but it don't necessarily mean you guilty.
Speaker 1: It just mean look like, look, I'm not answering this
Speaker 1: question because it might make me seem guilty. But you
Speaker 1: can't answer the question. You can't like and that's not
Speaker 1: gonna stand up in law in the court to just
Speaker 1: be like, well, I think because you didn't say nothing,
Speaker 1: that must mean this. No, it is your right as
Speaker 1: a citizen to be like, lead the fifth because for
Speaker 1: something that uh give Dave Chappelle gave us for anyway. Fifth.
Speaker 1: So yeah, you don't have to incriminate yourself. That's a
Speaker 1: great law to have. Now let's talk about the homies.
Speaker 1: Take a break though, all right, we're back in the building,
Speaker 1: the back and his billions. Uh so check it out.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about a couple of people, but we're gonna
Speaker 1: land mostly uh Jeffrey Clark. First, I'm gonna talk about
Speaker 1: your boy, Steve Bannett, who made it very clear who
Speaker 1: he was and what he's about. Steve Bannett said it
Speaker 1: with his whole chest. Okay, they asked that fool and
Speaker 1: and in a lot of ways. Look, I mean, if
Speaker 1: you reel out here, real, recognize real that man crazy,
Speaker 1: that man, psycho, that man, that's something wrong with that man.
Speaker 1: But he said it with his whole chest. They said,
Speaker 1: we want you to come testified. He said, I think
Speaker 1: your courts don't mean nothing. Number one, Number two, I'm
Speaker 1: invoking and executive privilege. I was working for the president.
Speaker 1: And even if I wasn't, Nigga, ain't coming. I don't
Speaker 1: respect y'all at all. You ain't nobody. It's Steve Bannon stance. Now,
Speaker 1: if you could see, if you could hear the smile
Speaker 1: in my face as I'm explained at this number one,
Speaker 1: the time for which they asking him to talk, You
Speaker 1: ain't work for the president then, nik And you was
Speaker 1: just at the crib. You was just over the here.
Speaker 1: So you can't. You can't claim executive privilege money if
Speaker 1: you ain't work for the president, then it don't work
Speaker 1: that way. Executive privilege covers dialogue and communication with his staff.
Speaker 1: You wasn't his staff, no more, nig it don't count.
Speaker 1: So that that's dumb. And he was like still like,
Speaker 1: I don't care whatever, I ain't coming he said it
Speaker 1: was up. They was like saying to my face. He said,
Speaker 1: I did, I ain't coming, and I mean I respect it.
Speaker 1: I don't respect him, but I respect that I ain't

Speaker 1: to block the enforcement of the subpoena Committee issued, as
Speaker 1: well as the subpoena it issued two Verizon for his
Speaker 1: phone records. My nigga was like, look and take me
Speaker 1: to court, homie. I'm suing y'all. Y'all ain't gotten. This
Speaker 1: is none of y'all's big business right. The lawsuit comes
Speaker 1: after the Committee signaled that it would pursue criminal contempt
Speaker 1: referral against Meadows because of his refusal to sit for
Speaker 1: a deposition in the investigation of the Capital Riot. Uh.
Speaker 1: He alleges that the subpoenos, the subpoenos, the subpoenas are
Speaker 1: overly broad and unduly burdensome, while claiming that committee lacks
Speaker 1: lawful authority to seek and to obtain the information requested.
Speaker 1: He's like, niggy, y'all need to see my phone ring. Look,
Speaker 1: I ain't telling y'all nothing. You you you out here wild?

Speaker 1: of y'alls, right, Uh. Your girl. Liz Cheney, who is
Speaker 1: the vice chair for the Senate Committee on the January
Speaker 1: six in selection, she was like, I look forward to
Speaker 1: litigating this, which is white people speak for like, oh,
Speaker 1: I want to smoke, nigga, come get this fade. Oh
Speaker 1: where are you trying to get down? We could get
Speaker 1: down in that's she like, look, let's row right. She
Speaker 1: also noted that Meadows is refusing to answer questions about
Speaker 1: documents that he already turned over voluntarily. You're trying to
Speaker 1: ask me questions. She like, what the hell is you
Speaker 1: talking about? You don't already gave us these documents. We're
Speaker 1: just trying to ask you questions about the documents you
Speaker 1: already gave us. Look, she said, the committee has received
Speaker 1: a number of extremely interesting, nonprivileged documents from Mr. Meadows.
Speaker 1: These include text messages and emails from his private cell
Speaker 1: phone and private email. Count he's produced these documents. They
Speaker 1: are not privileged, she said. They include, uh, documents that
Speaker 1: are directly related to what President Trump should have been
Speaker 1: doing on January six during the attack and now here
Speaker 1: refusing to appear to answer questions about these non privileged documents.
Speaker 1: The hell did you talking about privilege? Fool? Were already
Speaker 1: looking at the paper. You didn't already turned over the paperwork?
Speaker 1: He like, I ain't talking. You can't make me talk
Speaker 1: about this. These white people crazy, y'all already got the document.
Speaker 1: You know, when you're watching the news, they're showing a
Speaker 1: high speed chase and Homie hop out the whip and
Speaker 1: he started running. Don't you think to yourself the helicopter
Speaker 1: on you, hommy, where is you going Nigga Adon already
Speaker 1: got you that da had already got you. Look, Meadows, listen,
Speaker 1: you already know they ain't gonna look You're gonna be
Speaker 1: all right, But this is my bear was like, no,
Speaker 1: I want the smoke. Yes, now, finally our to talk about.
Speaker 1: Oh man, who's saying it with it? Who they aaron
Speaker 1: to say with his whole chest is Jeffrey Clark. Jeffrey Clark.
Speaker 1: Why why I like this so much is because of
Speaker 1: the the theater of it all. He had a couple
Speaker 1: of depositions where they were just trying to ask him questions,
Speaker 1: get some of the stuff on record, understand what it is,
Speaker 1: and he kept asserting certain types of like executive privilege,
Speaker 1: different things like this that some applied, some didn't, right um,
Speaker 1: and they kept asking him to kept asking them. Finally
Speaker 1: he's just like, look like, I'm done answering y'all's questions.
Speaker 1: I'm out right, and he walks away. He's like, we're
Speaker 1: done here. There's like there's this this certain interview with
Speaker 1: him where he was just like, listen to I'm done
Speaker 1: answering y'all's questions. I'm rolling out. Why this is so
Speaker 1: interesting to me is because again he used to he
Speaker 1: was he worked for the d o J, right, and
Speaker 1: so he kind of know really how to play this
Speaker 1: game with them. Right. So basically the panel was like, hey,
Speaker 1: we're gonna give you one more chance to come and
Speaker 1: appear right in light of this new letter that he
Speaker 1: sent to the committee stating that he intends to claim
Speaker 1: Fifth Amendment protection. And they're like, oh, word, will come
Speaker 1: say it with your whole chest. Don't be such a
Speaker 1: net banger. Oh, come say it to our face. We
Speaker 1: want to ask you the questions. Have you on camera,
Speaker 1: look us in the face and say I plead the
Speaker 1: fifth Even though he's saying, look, look I intend to
Speaker 1: you know, I'm done answering questions and whatever I am
Speaker 1: going to answer. My answer is I plead the fifth.
Speaker 1: And they're like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: that's not good enough. Come in here, bring that same
Speaker 1: energy to our face in front of all these cameras.
Speaker 1: Let everybody see you say I'm pleading the fifth. They
Speaker 1: was like, say it with your chest. Look, it's so
Speaker 1: funny to me, say, listen, nigga, you need to come
Speaker 1: in here and tell us I'm not accepting no letters.
Speaker 1: Come say it to us. Why is that important what
Speaker 1: anybody from the hood. No, exactly why that's important. One
Speaker 1: is because I'm trying to see if you're a punk
Speaker 1: or not, if you all school, if you're a buster,
Speaker 1: if you're Mark, you're Mork and mindy. Let me see
Speaker 1: if you got some heart. You can't hide behind these letters.
Speaker 1: I don't hear now, none of that. I heard, none
Speaker 1: of that. I heard what I told y'all. Try to
Speaker 1: tell you no, no, no, no, no, no, no, stand
Speaker 1: up like a man, look me in the face and
Speaker 1: say what you said, Say what you say, what you
Speaker 1: said you was gonna say, Do what you said you
Speaker 1: was gonna do. Because it don't count unless you can
Speaker 1: look me in the face. That's why I'm like this, listen,
Speaker 1: this this hood stuff. None of this. I heard. You
Speaker 1: told me this. Now. Now, if you know, if you're
Speaker 1: really about that action, every if everybody about this about
Speaker 1: that action, and even if you go in there and listen,
Speaker 1: even if you go in there and switching of the street,
Speaker 1: even if you're going there and catch that fade, let
Speaker 1: me tell you what's gonna happen. Whole hood will be like, well,
Speaker 1: you know what, though he stood up like a man.
Speaker 1: He took his beating. Even if you get your I mean,
Speaker 1: if they dog walk you. Listen, we respected because you
Speaker 1: wasn't You weren't hiding behind no keyboards, twitter fingers like
Speaker 1: like Drake will say, you know what I'm saying, You
Speaker 1: just ain't twitter fingers. You ain't hiding in the common sections. Nah, homie,
Speaker 1: let me come outside. You come outside, you throw them hands,
Speaker 1: and then foods wear you out. At least you through hands,
Speaker 1: at least rere respect the fact that you stood up
Speaker 1: in front of everybody and said what you had to say.
Speaker 1: Because if not now, not only because then the court
Speaker 1: gets to be like, not only if you don't come
Speaker 1: in here and just say what you said you was
Speaker 1: gonna say, not only do we get to hold you
Speaker 1: in contempt and put you into jail and we get
Speaker 1: to call you a You know what I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: pausing for a fact because you know what I'm saying. Look,
Speaker 1: I love this stuff. They they saying it like this. Listen,
Speaker 1: Let's just say we have forty five questions. We're giving
Speaker 1: you one more chance to show you got a backbone.
Speaker 1: I want you to come in here and don't want
Speaker 1: you to answer each of these questions either answer with
Speaker 1: that's privileged or I'm pleading the fifth. I want you
Speaker 1: to say it to our face. I'm gonna give you
Speaker 1: one more chance. If not, we bring in the faith.
Speaker 1: And it seems like okay, but he already said he
Speaker 1: pleading the fifth. But he's like no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 1: I need you on record because I needed we need
Speaker 1: to all watch you do this because we all know
Speaker 1: in the eyes of the public, if somebody plead the fifth.
Speaker 1: Uh So, if they do hold him in criminal contempt,
Speaker 1: it will be the second person him and Mark Meadows,
Speaker 1: uh who would actually face serious like legal penalty, Like
Speaker 1: it's criminal like I said, it's a misdemeanor to not
Speaker 1: show up. Um and like we said, Steve Bannon is
Speaker 1: also awaiting his trial like we talked about before, because
Speaker 1: he's held in content, right. Um So, if this goes down,
Speaker 1: I mean, what y'all think having next? You think they're
Speaker 1: gonna sit in jail or you think they're gonna pull
Speaker 1: the market Meadows from joint where they're just gonna sue.
Speaker 1: You think it's gonna tie up in courts? Which is
Speaker 1: they gonna do? You think? I mean, what y'all think ship.
Speaker 1: I can't call it. These white people will be having
Speaker 1: some stuff under the up under their sleeves, but if
Speaker 1: I was to use my antenna's. One thing I know
Speaker 1: about these powerful folks in this system is you're not
