1
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to woke F Daily with

2
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:21,119
Speaker 1: Meet your Girl Danielle Moody, recording from my Eastern Shore bunker. Folks,

3
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 1: I got to tell you that, you know, I turned

4
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: on the news after taking you know, a wonderful break

5
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 1: with friends over the weekend and coming back and turning

6
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 1: on the news. I just sometimes I want to I want,

7
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: like my twenty tens version self to listen to fifteen

8
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: minutes of news in twenty twenty two and get that

9
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: version of myself's reaction, because twenty minutes into any newscast

10
00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: and you are hearing everything from the World Health Organization

11
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,839
Speaker 1: naming another health emergency as it pertains to monkey pox.

12
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: You hear about BA four and BA five, the two

13
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: new variants that have taken over Amicron, which was the

14
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:22,839
Speaker 1: old Big news variant of COVID nineteen. You hear about

15
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: multiple mass shootings that have taken place, you know, one

16
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: in a airport, love Field Airport in Dallas, where a

17
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: thirty seven year old woman we're assuming that she's white

18
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: because she's still alive, goes in, is dropped off around

19
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: eleven am, goes into the bathroom, puts on a hoodie

20
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 1: and then starts shooting the place up. There are no

21
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: casualties that are reported, and she was shot below the waist,

22
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: so that leads you to believe that she was not

23
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: a black person because they would have been talking about

24
00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: her in the past. Tense, you are about the triple

25
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: digit temperatures that are not just happening in notoriously hot

26
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: places in the United States, but everywhere. You hear about

27
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: multiple wildfires that are happening in this country as well

28
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: as in Greece as well as in France. You hear about,

29
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: you know, declarations of public health emergencies as it pertains

30
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 1: to climate change now, because we didn't want to heed

31
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: the warnings from twenty and thirty years ago, and we

32
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: clearly don't want to do anything now, or I'm sorry,

33
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: Joe Mansion doesn't want to do anything now, So we're

34
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 1: not going to take any major action on climate change ever,

35
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: so that he can continue to get wealthy along with

36
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: the rest of his family. That was just twenty minutes

37
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 1: of watching the news. So when I tell you a

38
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago that the New York Times did

39
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: an entire or expose on distract depression, which is the

40
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: combination of anxiety, depression, distraction, and just overall hopelessness. I

41
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: get why so many Americans are on medication. I get

42
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: why there has been a steady rise in mental health

43
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: medication prescriptions since the beginning of this pandemic nearly two

44
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 1: and a half years ago. Functioning is really fucking hard,

45
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: and I don't even know what we define as functioning.

46
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: I guess the ability to make it through your work

47
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: day and not have just a nervous breakdown at your

48
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: computer at your desk. The fact that employers are forcing

49
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: people to go back into work and then making you

50
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: feel a type of way if you're a back in

51
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: the workplace and you're wearing a map. I don't know

52
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: what the fuck is going on, you know. I literally look.

53
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: I wrote down in my handy dandy notebook a list

54
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: of topics that I wanted to tackle on today's show,

55
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: and I got to tell you, what I really want

56
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: to tackle is just this feeling of overwhelm, just this

57
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 1: feeling of literally feeling beside myself because I know that

58
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: I'm not the only one. I know that millions of

59
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 1: Americans are really suffering right now on so many different levels.

60
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: And I got to tell you, for the folks that

61
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: are listening to this show who also have kids or

62
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: our caregivers to children. My god, I don't know how

63
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: the fuck you all do it. And I'm not about

64
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: you know, calling people heroes or heroines or any of

65
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 1: those things, because I feel like you shouldn't be forced

66
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: into be a hero or a heroine that you know,

67
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: this state and the federal government should be providing families

68
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: with aid in order to be able to you know,

69
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:15,799
Speaker 1: parents and caregive in a way that doesn't put your future,

70
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: your you know, home income at risk, right because you

71
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 1: have to make decisions between do I put my child

72
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 1: in daycare or do I quit my job because I'm

73
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 1: only working to pay for daycare, Because that's the situations

74
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: that we force people in this country in. I just, folks,

75
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: I mean, my fucking god, you know, I want to

76
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: start out with in just the coverage of what's been

77
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 1: happening with Indiana and this disgusting, egregious state. So we

78
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 1: all by now know that the story, the heinous story

79
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: of the ten year old girl that was raped who

80
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: then was impregnated by her rapist, had to lead the

81
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: state of Ohio where their trigger band took effect when

82
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: Rovie Wade was overturned and had to travel to Indiana

83
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: in order to get an abortion because she was raped. Well,

84
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: the state of Indiana is holding a special session right

85
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 1: now because when Republicans here that a ten year old

86
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 1: girl is raped and needed to have an abortion so

87
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: that a ten year old girl is not forced into

88
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: motherhood before she even turns thirteen, they think about the

89
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: need to overturn abortion. I just want you to like

90
00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: wrap your mind around that for a minute, that Republicans

91
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: in Indiana. People in Indiana hear about the heinous crime

92
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: of sexual violence that was forced upon a ten year

93
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: old who then becomes pregnant by her rapist, is forced

94
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: to cross state lines because abortion is banned in her state.

95
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: And when Republicans hear this, they think to themselves, we

96
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: need to ban abortion so that more ten year old

97
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: girls are forced into motherhood before they become fucking teenagers.

98
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: How how is it that we have succumbed to minority

99
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: rule in this country? When you do national polls on

100
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: access to abortion, and over seventy percent of Americans believe

101
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 1: that people with uteruses should be able to have access

102
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 1: to an abortion and be able to have bodily autonomy.

103
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: That then you have all of these laws that are

104
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: now in these red states, which are a majority of

105
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: the states right now, our banning abortion are making absolutely

106
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: no exceptions, not for rape, not for incests, and certainly

107
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: not for the life endangerment of said pregnant person. What

108
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: the fuck right? Because here is the thing. Friends. I

109
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: was on MSNBC over the weekend and Simone Sanders asked me.

110
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 1: She said, Danielle, what do you say when Democrats are

111
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,839
Speaker 1: out here telling people that they just need to vote more,

112
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,559
Speaker 1: that we need more senators, She said, which we do,

113
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: and people need to vote, which they do. But that's

114
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 1: the only thing that they're offering. Meanwhile, Republicans are out

115
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: here telling people with uterus is that you are not

116
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 1: fully fledged citizens of these United States, telling rape victims

117
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: we don't give a fuck, right, like telling people who

118
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 1: are potentially on their deathbed that women who are going

119
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,439
Speaker 1: into labor with complications are having to beg their doctors

120
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: in saying please save me if something goes wrong, and

121
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: not the life of this unborn fatus. How is it

122
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: that Democrats are not using this as their fucking rallying cry.

123
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 1: There are so many things that are happening right now.

124
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: I just listed several in the first five minutes of

125
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 1: this fucking show. Democrats aren't using any of it. Instead,

126
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 1: they're talking about fucking jobs, right how many jobs Biden added?

127
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 1: And you know, I listen to another report where they

128
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: were like, you know, here's the reality. Biden only has

129
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: but a handful of weeks to actually offer some type

130
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: of policy initiatives that they've been able to do since

131
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 1: coming into office in January twenty twenty one. And because

132
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: of Joe Mansion and Kirsten Cinema, they really have nothing

133
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: to offer the American people in terms of what they

134
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 1: have accomplished. And so my fucking question is, then why

135
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 1: don't you go and run on what it is that

136
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: Republicans are doing to dismantle rights in this country for

137
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: everyone who is not male, who is not white, and

138
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: who is not quote unquote fucking Christian. They are handing

139
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: you your campaign strategies, But do you know what fucking

140
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: Democrats are doing in places like Pennsylvania, in places like Arizona.

141
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: Oh well, they're deciding to run a different type of

142
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:08,839
Speaker 1: campaign where they spend millions of dollars backing the trumpiest

143
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: of people in the hopes that then Democrats who win

144
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 1: their primary are able to beat that person in the

145
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 1: general election. Yes, you just heard me right. Let me

146
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 1: say that again. Democrats are running campaign ads for the

147
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 1: trumpiest of people in some of the most critical battleground

148
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: states in this country because they are playing a game,

149
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: rolling the dice and gambling that the trumpier the better

150
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: for the general election and then the Democrat will be

151
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: able to beat them. What the fuck are you doing?

152
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: Why in God's name, in this current political climate, would

153
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: you be playing Russian Roulette with Trumpism, which we already

154
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: know is akin to fascism, which we already know is

155
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 1: the biggest threat to our democracy. And what you are

156
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:23,959
Speaker 1: gambling on is that their message is not resonating with

157
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: the majority of people in said battleground states. But it

158
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: doesn't really matter because we know that these motherfuckers cheat

159
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: and lie. So you tell me why you would spend

160
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: the hard earned money that people donate, right, individual donors

161
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: and these big ass motherfucking packs, and these big fucking

162
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 1: millionaires and billionaires of the Democratic Party, that you would

163
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:54,479
Speaker 1: pay to boister up a Doug Mastriano, for example, in Pennsylvania,

164
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 1: who wants to ban abortion all out, who wants to

165
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 1: change voting in Pennsylvania altogether, who was at the insurrection

166
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: and is in a fairly tight race right now in Pennsylvania.

167
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: Why do we think that this is a risk that

168
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party should be taking, as opposed to using

169
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: every single bit of fucking money that they have to

170
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 1: be running ads on television, on every single app, on

171
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: every single streaming service that would then show you exactly

172
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 1: who the Republican Party is and what it is that

173
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: they are doing to America in broad fucking daylight. Why

174
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: wouldn't you be using the opportunity and the money that

175
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: is presented in front of you to blanket every single

176
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 1: fucking streaming airwave everything in order to convince the American

177
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 1: people that the Republican Party is actually no longer a

178
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: viable political party, but a threat to our national security,

179
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: a domestic terrorist organization that we should all be terrified of.

180
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: Because they are starting with abortion, they are starting with

181
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: these fucking don't say gay bills. But this is not

182
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: where this shit is going to end. Right. I am

183
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 1: so beside myself these days with trying to understand the

184
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: rationale that Democrats have right now, or the strategy that

185
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: they have in place. And look, folks, I'm no stranger

186
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: to getting called out on Al Gore's fucking Internet about

187
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: why am I not going hard against Republicans. I go

188
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 1: hard against Republicans every fucking day of the week. But

189
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: I need to wake up Democrats to the fact that

190
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: you literally have been given a pooh pooh platter of

191
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: what to choose from of what it is is that

192
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: Republicans are fucking doing, and you're choosing not to. You're

193
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: choosing to say that, oh, the American people want to

194
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: discuss and vote on kitchen table issues. Well, when your

195
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: house is on fire because a climate change, when you

196
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: don't have a job, when you have no right to

197
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 1: bodily autonomy, when the police you're using us target practice.

198
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: I don't understand what you think we're discussing at the

199
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 1: kitchen table right now, right like, that's where the fuck

200
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:46,080

Speaker 1: you get your podcast, new episodes every Tuesday. You know.

226
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 1: The other thing that I will say with regard to

227
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 1: Democrats and their messaging, because I keep getting asked the

228
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 1: same question all the time, is this, it is not

229
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: hard to just tell people or to share, to share

230
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 1: in their rage. This is the thing that I believe

231
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: that Republicans have been doing since the beginning of time. Right.

232
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 1: They know that their base is older, or actually not

233
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: so old, white people who are racist, who are misogynists,

234
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: who believe in patriarchy, and who fashion themselves as white

235
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 1: evangelical Christians. And so what was Donald Trump able to

236
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: do in twenty fifteen and twenty sixteen. He was able

237
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 1: to lift up their fucking economic anxiety, their grievance about

238
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:07,400
Speaker 1: how vastly different America is becoming because of the demographic

239
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 1: shift and the fact that no, you can't just get

240
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 1: a fucking high school diploma, work in a factory for

241
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 1: twenty five years, and then to have the ability to

242
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 1: buy a home, own a car, send your kids to

243
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 1: school and all will be well with only a high

244
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: school diploma. So what has the Republican Party been able

245
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 1: to do. They've been able to give a voice and

246
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: a platform to that racist white grievance attitude. And so

247
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: my question is, well, why the fuck can't Democrats get

248
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: behind the base of their party who is outdone and

249
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 1: so overwhelmed with the fact that their kids are going

250
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 1: to have less rights than they do, that their kids

251
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: will most likely be living with them if in fact

252
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: they own a home, because the average prices of homes

253
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: have gone through the roof, right, and that the average

254
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: price of rent, like I'll tell you this, for living

255
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: in New York's four thousand dollars a month. That is

256
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: more than most people's fucking mortgages. Right, So how is

257
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 1: it that Republicans are able to give voice to their

258
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: racist white base, but Democrats can't share in the rage

259
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: that we have in this moment where we are watching

260
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: every single day one righte be ticked off at a time.

261
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 1: If nothing else, get behind these people and the rage

262
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,400
Speaker 1: and the fear that we have. I say this all

263
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 1: the time. Obama and Trump are two case studies of

264
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 1: America at very different times. Obama, we are in the

265
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 1: early two thousands, where we think that you know anything

266
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 1: is kind of possible. Technology is changing rapidly. You have

267
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 1: this new fresh candidate that is like, yes, we can, right,

268
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: we can come together as this multiracial coalition and we

269
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: can change America. And for eight years they absolutely did, right,

270
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: but also on the belief set that we all had

271
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 1: this shared value right called the Constitution. But once the

272
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,640
Speaker 1: Obama team started to recognize that, look, these people are

273
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: not trying to fuck with you solely because you are

274
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,879
Speaker 1: a black man who had the audacity to ascend to

275
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: the highest office in the land. That should have been

276
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 1: a signal point, right that they are going to try

277
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: and drag this country backwards, that we are going to

278
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: experience whitelash at any time any bit of progress it's

279
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 1: made in this country. You have racist white people who

280
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 1: are still in power at all local, federal, state, right

281
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 1: on the bench, in the fucking police uniform all around

282
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 1: this country. And so what preparation are you doing for

283
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 1: that backlash? Fast forward to Donald Trump who says American carnage,

284
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: there's drugs and murder in the streets. Well, now there

285
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 1: are right. Following his fucking inability to get COVID under

286
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 1: control and lie about it for several months, causing the

287
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 1: deaths of half a million Americans right by the time

288
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: that he was ready to fucking leave office. And let's

289
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: let me not use the word leave office, because we

290
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: know that that was not going to be the fucking

291
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: case right that the January sixth Committee has laid out

292
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 1: for us. Donald Trump was never leaving office voluntarily. He

293
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: was needing to be pulled out, kicking and screaming. But nonetheless,

294
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: what Donald Trump was selling to his constituency, to white

295
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 1: America was fear and rage. These people are coming in

296
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: caravans and they're gonna take your jobs and put up

297
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,879
Speaker 1: taco carts on every corner and sleep on your lawn.

298
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: And Black Lives Matter is in Tifun. They're gonna kill

299
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 1: cops in all of this bullshit because fear sells so

300
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 1: right now, you don't even have to think, if you're

301
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: a Democrat, how were we selling fear? Because we wake

302
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: up scared to death every fucking day. Every day there's

303
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: another mass shooting right that is becoming more and more

304
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: at the norm. Whether it's at an airport, it's in

305
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 1: a church, it's at a fucking grocery store, or it's

306
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 1: at a school, it is happening every day. So either

307
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 1: you're gonna vote for politicians that are actually coast playing

308
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 1: fucking the Civil War in their political ads, going rhino

309
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 1: hunting and showing off their ar fifteens. You're gonna either

310
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 1: vote for crazy, or you're gonna vote for saying you're

311
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 1: gonna vote for a world where your kids are able

312
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: to go to school and learn about the fullness of

313
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 1: American history, or you're gonna vote for book burners. Like,

314
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 1: it's not that fucking hard. And so when I get

315
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: on Democrats, I'm like, how difficult is it to draw

316
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 1: the fucking line right between sanity and insanity, between democracy

317
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: and authoritarianism. It should not be that hard. And yet

318
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 1: here we are with Democrats trying to run on policy initiatives. Well,

319
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 1: guess what, you have no policy that you have passed

320
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,360
Speaker 1: that anyone gives a shit about. They're talking about, Oh, well,

321
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: we're gonna run on lowering prescription drug prices. Who gives

322
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 1: a fuck not? When you have Republicans that are upending

323
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: public education and gutting it, when you have no bodily autonomy,

324
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: when police are literally using black people as target practice

325
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: and putting sixty fucking rounds in a human body, right, Like,

326
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: I don't understand why it is so hard to point

327
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: to the villain, the Republican, evil fucking villain, and say,

328
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:01,719
Speaker 1: if these people take control of the House or the Senate,

329
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 1: this country is done. That is not a hyperbolic statement.

330
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 1: You can't get fucking climate change pass right now. They're

331
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 1: pulling up votes on same sex marriage. You have the

332
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 1: Supreme Court signaling that not only are you not allowed

333
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 1: to get an abortion, we're also not going to provide

334
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: you with birth control. That is not your right either.

335
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: And you have these red states that are getting ready

336
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: to ban all of that as well. So what if

337
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: you are a person with a uterus? Do you feel

338
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 1: safe in this fucking country right now? Or do you

339
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:40,919
Speaker 1: feel like a target? It is not that difficult to

340
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 1: lift up these truths that Republicans are laying out and

341
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: say it is either you are with us, this imperfect

342
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: political body but that still believes in the founders of

343
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,159
Speaker 1: this country, still believes in the constitution, or you're with

344
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 1: these people who base is the proud voice, the oath keepers,

345
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: the three percenters, and Nazis, because that's who they are, right,

346
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 1: you know, Switching gears for a moment. Let me let

347
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: me talk about Merrick Garland real quick. So last week,

348
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:21,919
Speaker 1: at the end of last week, I said on the

349
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 1: show that Merrick Garland had you know, given an interview

350
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 1: and had signaled once again, you know, his famous line

351
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 1: that no one is above the law. And when pressed

352
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 1: by a reporter and saying not even a former president

353
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 1: of the United States, says not even a former he said,

354
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:46,919
Speaker 1: let me be clear, no one is above the law. Right. Well, yesterday,

355
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: Andrew Weisman, former counsel for the FBI, is asked by

356
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: Nicole Wallace on MSNBC whether or not he believes that

357
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:02,120
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice regardless of what Merritt Garland said

358
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 1: about the fact that we don't do investigations in public, right,

359
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,199
Speaker 1: that we don't. That's not who we are, right that

360
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:13,439
Speaker 1: I'm about restoring the integrity of this fucking agency above

361
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: all else. Nicole Wallace asked, well, you know, Andrew, do

362
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 1: you think that this Department of Justice is moving on

363
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 1: any type of investigation? And his response was sadly no,

364
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: there is no indication whatsoever that this Department of Justice

365
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,399
Speaker 1: is moving And how do we know that, Well, we

366
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 1: know that they were completely caught off guard by Cassidy Hutchinson.

367
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:46,679
Speaker 1: We know that the January sixth Committee recommended much in

368
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: the same way that they recommended Steve Bannon beheld in

369
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 1: criminal content for not complying with the congressional subpoena. They

370
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 1: recommended the same from Mark Meadows, but the Department of

371
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 1: Justice decided that they weren't going to go after Mark Meadows, right,

372
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: And maybe it's because he supplied some information but then

373
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 1: didn't supply all of it, so they were like, oh, okay, well,

374
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 1: at least he did the bare minimum. What I want

375
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: folks to understand is that this country is not moving

376
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 1: on whether or not Merrick Garland has the backbone and

377
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 1: the fortitude to actually see a criminal indictment through of

378
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 1: Donald Trump and every single one of the architects behind

379
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:46,399
Speaker 1: the insurrection. This country is not getting repaired. The bare

380
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 1: minimum of beginning that repair would be to signal to

381
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: the American people that, in fact, saying that nobody is

382
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,920
Speaker 1: above the law isn't just a slogan of the Department

383
00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: of Justice, but it is actually a value of the

384
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 1: Department of Justice that they will hold up regardless of

385
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 1: who is in front of them. But that's not what

386
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:13,399
Speaker 1: we're seeing, right, We're seeing ag Fanny Willis in Georgia

387
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:17,199
Speaker 1: going to the fucking mats. We're seeing her begin to

388
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 1: subpoena the likes of Rudy Giuliani and others right and

389
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 1: bringing who were part of the fake electors scheme. How

390
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 1: do we know that Fanny Willis is working because she's

391
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 1: fucking telling us that she's working. But we're also seeing

392
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: the subpoenas come out. Fucking eighteen months after our government

393
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 1: was almost overthrown by thousands of Trump supporters who he

394
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,479
Speaker 1: weaponized and turned on his vice president of the United

395
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: States and on members of Congress, we have seen nothing

396
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 1: but their foot soldiers be taken up, and those people

397
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: mostly got slaps on the rise. You have people serving

398
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 1: more time in jail right now for marijuana charges right then,

399
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 1: they are for attempting to overthrow the government and actually

400
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: beating and terrorizing police officers. The War on drugs, which

401
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: incarcerated more black and brown people in this country right

402
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: broke more homes and more communities. They are more successful

403
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 1: doing that because the target was black and brown people

404
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 1: than they are going after white people who are trying

405
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: to overthrow this government and not doing anything to stop

406
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 1: this not so slow moving coup from continuing to take hold.

407
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: Why because the people that were at the fucking insurrection

408
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 1: are now running for governor, they're running for secretary of state,

409
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 1: they're running for the fucking school board. How are they

410
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: able to do that? Oh, because federal charges were not

411
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 1: fucking brought against them, and they weren't thrown in jail.

412
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 1: One of the things that Andrew Weisman said following up

413
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 1: on Wallace's question on Deadline White House was, you know,

414
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 1: here's the thing. If we fail as a country to

415
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: hold a criminal president accountable for his crimes against this nation,

416
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 1: what comes in his stead is going to be worse.

417
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: And what you are doing, by virtue of not indicting,

418
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: of not providing prosecution, is a de facto pardon. Donald

419
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 1: Trump has already signaled and said time and time again

420
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: he is running in twenty twenty four, right, and this

421
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 1: Department of Justice is so hell bent on not seeing

422
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: meing political. So how is it going to look then,

423
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: because you've dragged your feet this whole fucking time, if

424
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 1: you finally start getting your ducks in a and now

425
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 1: we have candidate Donald Trump once again, I just you know,

426
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: it is always so amazing to me, And by amazing

427
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: I mean incredibly disheartening to just be slapped in the

428
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: face with America's injustice and imbalance. That the bar must

429
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 1: be so high to be able to prove that a

430
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: which white man is a criminal, but we assume criminality

431
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 1: by virtue of birth of anyone with melanin that there

432
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: is no real proof that is needed other than how

433
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: you feel in your heart. I just, folks, I want

434
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 1: to continue to have faith. I want to believe that

435
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: good will prevail, but there is nothing that is indicating

436
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 1: that whatsoever at this point. And that is what I

437
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 1: find most troubling. You know, as we watch the world

438
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 1: on fire, literally, people dying, tarmax melting train tracks, buckling

439
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 1: flights not being able to take off, trains running slower

440
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 1: because of too much heat, grids failing, books being burned,

441
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 1: doctors being sued and investigating for helping rape victims. I

442
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: don't know where to turn for air. I don't know

443
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: where to turn for ease, for breath. But I gotta

444
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: say that if we don't do something as a people,

445
00:32:55,680 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: if we don't take direct action, we can understand and

446
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: know to be true that the darkness that we are

447
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: seeing take hold across this nation will only get worse.

448
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 1: And if Democrats don't use the fear of that truth

449
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: to win, I think that we're lost indefinitely. Hey there,

450
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 1: I want to tell you about another podcast I think

451

Speaker 1: some of the most important issues basing the United States,

458
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: from reproductive justice to voting rights, to climate change and more.

461
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 1: season accelerates, it can be tricky to sort through all

462
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 1: the noise and the news. Each week, on The gap Fest,

463
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 1: John Dickerson, Emily Bathlon and I decipher the headlines, break

464
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 1: down the races, and tell you what issues really matter.

465
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,320
