0:00:42.479 --> 0:00:46.880
<v Speaker 1>Good morning angela Ye, good morning, Damdy Scholamine. The guy

0:00:47.200 --> 0:00:54.280
<v Speaker 1>piece to the planet is Tuesday. Yes, it's Tuesday, Election Day,

0:00:54.320 --> 0:00:57.680
<v Speaker 1>the final day for America to vote. That's right. We

0:00:57.760 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 1>have no idea what the world is gonna look like

0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:02.800
<v Speaker 1>after the day, but whatever happens, you have to know

0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:05.479
<v Speaker 1>it's all God's will. As my late great friend jazz

0:01:05.520 --> 0:01:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Fly used to say, trust God to God. If Republicans win,

0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:11.280
<v Speaker 1>black people got work to do. If Democrats win, black people,

0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:13.720
<v Speaker 1>we still got work to do. That's right. I don't

0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:16.319
<v Speaker 1>think anything changes because the illusion of America has been

0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:19.840
<v Speaker 1>revealed to all this year, and this system was considered

0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:21.920
<v Speaker 1>normal has never worked for all of us. So tonight,

0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>regardless of who wins, just know it's nothing to celebrate.

0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:28.360
<v Speaker 1>We got work to do, all right. Now, let me

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:30.080
<v Speaker 1>shout out to everybody in Atlanta. Yesterday I was in

0:01:30.120 --> 0:01:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta with McDonald's. Of course, HBCU home comings a cancel,

0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:37.119
<v Speaker 1>so McDonald's put together a play where people can then

0:01:37.240 --> 0:01:41.199
<v Speaker 1>still enjoy the HBCU home coming. So we were filming yesterday.

0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.600
<v Speaker 1>I actually went to work yesterday, but I was in Atlanta.

0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:46.440
<v Speaker 1>But Atlanta couldn't get the technical stuff working. So I

0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 1>was at the station for nothing for about forty five

0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:49.840
<v Speaker 1>minutes to an hour. They couldn't get it working, so

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:52.760
<v Speaker 1>I just went straight straight to set. So m well,

0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:56.120
<v Speaker 1>then President Obama in Atlanta yesterday and Obama and Biden.

0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:58.320
<v Speaker 1>I think I know Obama was there. I don't know

0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:00.480
<v Speaker 1>about Biden. I don't know about I know I wasn't

0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:03.200
<v Speaker 1>uh in Atlanta yesterday. So Atlanta was crazy. Was it

0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:06.640
<v Speaker 1>was jam packing that flew back late last night? Uh,

0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:08.600
<v Speaker 1>when I was on the plane, I was watching the

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 1>game and I thought that the Giants were gonna win.

0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:13.560
<v Speaker 1>I was like, think there's something the Giants gonna win

0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:16.880
<v Speaker 1>the game. But no, they they they proved me wrong again.

0:02:17.240 --> 0:02:20.880
<v Speaker 1>They didn't They didn't know they weren't gonna win pretty much.

0:02:20.919 --> 0:02:26.959
<v Speaker 1>They actually better than people. Still lost, doesn't matter you

0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:31.080
<v Speaker 1>almost one thing for you. You know, there's no almost

0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.160
<v Speaker 1>in football. We're not gonna say that about nobody to night.

0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden almost one. We almost won a fight. I

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:40.960
<v Speaker 1>don't know if a win it's going to be declared tonight.

0:02:41.000 --> 0:02:43.880
<v Speaker 1>We don't know that yet. Not as possible. It's possible

0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:47.919
<v Speaker 1>depending on depending where states come in, because I mean,

0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:52.000
<v Speaker 1>you know the states to really watch North Carolina, Iowa,

0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:56.960
<v Speaker 1>and what's the other one, No, Florida, Florida. North Carolina, Iowa,

0:02:57.000 --> 0:03:00.080
<v Speaker 1>and Florida, because those three always come in on election day.

0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:02.440
<v Speaker 1>And you know, if if Joe Biden wins those three,

0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:06.600
<v Speaker 1>it's really no path to victory for Donald Trump. There's

0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:09.920
<v Speaker 1>a county in New Hampton that's already declared that Joe

0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:14.200
<v Speaker 1>Biden is a winner. Yeah. So if North Carolina, North Carolina, Iowa,

0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:16.360
<v Speaker 1>and Florida, if Joe Biden runs the table on all

0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:19.280
<v Speaker 1>three of those, US more than likely be the next

0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:22.920
<v Speaker 1>president of the United States of America. Okay, well, um ya,

0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:25.960
<v Speaker 1>the interview with US yesterday, right, yeah, Teslain figure out

0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:28.079
<v Speaker 1>the host of this great shot, no chase of podcast,

0:03:28.160 --> 0:03:32.200
<v Speaker 1>political pundit, ground organizer, she'd be in these streets. Yes,

0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 1>she pulled up yesterday to talk about all things election

0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:39.240

0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:53.280
<v Speaker 1>because if not, Lindsay Graham really might have y'all back

0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.920
<v Speaker 1>in the good old days of segregation. Okay, all right,

0:03:56.160 --> 0:03:57.960
<v Speaker 1>but let's get the show cracking. Front Page knows what

0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:05.040

0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:08.040
<v Speaker 1>would you think? That was awkward chilence it was if

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:10.320

<v Speaker 1>don't like how pleasant you said that the Giants are

0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:42.800

0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:14.320
<v Speaker 1>on the campaign trail. Yesterday was everybody's closing out as

0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 1>today is election day. Now. Donald Trump was a lashing

0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:22.760
<v Speaker 1>out at different people who he feels are against him

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:25.520
<v Speaker 1>as they are. You know, they are people that he

0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:30.440
<v Speaker 1>talked about included Jay Z, Beyonce, John Bond, Job, Lady Gaga.

0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:33.919
<v Speaker 1>Listen to this. Now he's got Lady Gaga, Lady Gaga.

0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:38.040
<v Speaker 1>I could tell you plenty of stories. I could tell

0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:40.000
<v Speaker 1>you stories about Lady Gaga. I know a lot of

0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:48.760
<v Speaker 1>stories and Lady Gaga. John kisses my ass. They got

0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:54.480
<v Speaker 1>Beyonce and they got right and he started using left word.

0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember in front of this girl? And then

0:05:57.120 --> 0:05:59.960
<v Speaker 1>they laughed in the crowd laughed and Hilary standing say

0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:04.239
<v Speaker 1>with an empty place that she was talking interesting, Oh

0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:06.800
<v Speaker 1>my god, this is what he's concerned about me now

0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:11.200
<v Speaker 1>of him talking about Lebron James. How about Lebron? I

0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:15.400
<v Speaker 1>felt badly for Lebron down seventy one. You know why

0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:18.080
<v Speaker 1>when they don't respect our country, when they don't respect

0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:23.800
<v Speaker 1>our flag, nobody wants to watch yo bother and the

0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:27.320
<v Speaker 1>NFL is way down. You gotta really be great to

0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:30.080
<v Speaker 1>our flag and to our anthem. And if you don't

0:06:30.120 --> 0:06:38.480
<v Speaker 1>do that without watching what a crowd? I mean, that's

0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:40.440
<v Speaker 1>what a crowd. I mean, that's just not accurate. Lebron

0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:42.719
<v Speaker 1>James doesn't suck. He's the best basketball player in the world.

0:06:43.120 --> 0:06:44.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's just not accurate. What are you talking?

0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:46.760
<v Speaker 1>What are we talking about? Hire people? You gotta be

0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:49.560
<v Speaker 1>you gotta be right with your chance now little Pump

0:06:49.560 --> 0:06:52.719
<v Speaker 1>who has been saying that he's voting for Donald Trump.

0:06:52.720 --> 0:06:56.359
<v Speaker 1>He posted Mago twenty twenty twenty, hopefully that is the year. Um,

0:06:56.839 --> 0:06:59.440
<v Speaker 1>and he said if Donald Trump doesn't get reelected, he'll

0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:02.800
<v Speaker 1>be leaving the country. While Donald Trump did bring a

0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:06.000
<v Speaker 1>little pump to the stage speaking of sound music and

0:07:06.080 --> 0:07:09.520
<v Speaker 1>other things. One of the big superstars of the world,

0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:22.840
<v Speaker 1>a little piet run. Oh my god, the Mega twenty

0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:27.160
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty. Don't forget that. He didn't correct his name

0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:31.520
<v Speaker 1>his name right, I mean, he didn't create twenty twenty.

0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:34.480
<v Speaker 1>He didn't say Beyonce name right either. Um, she wasn't there.

0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:37.720
<v Speaker 1>He was there, you know, a little pim a little

0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:40.880
<v Speaker 1>All those celebrity endorsements are cool, but if they think

0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:43.000
<v Speaker 1>that's all, it's going to take the win over black

0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:46.040
<v Speaker 1>people moving forward. I mean, on both sides, Republican and Democrat,

0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 1>they out they damn mine because if Biden Harris went,

0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:50.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be on that ass holding them accountable. I'm

0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:53.280
<v Speaker 1>not celebrating nothing. We've got things we want done in

0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:55.880
<v Speaker 1>the first hundred days. We got work to do. Absolutely

0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:00.840
<v Speaker 1>do y'all know a little pip show again as we

0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:03.800
<v Speaker 1>do now he just renamed him Laman. Do you know

0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:05.840
<v Speaker 1>a little pump song or pimp song? What? No, I'm

0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:07.560
<v Speaker 1>forty two years old. I don't know nothing about a

0:08:07.560 --> 0:08:10.080
<v Speaker 1>little pump man. Imagine you out here going high for

0:08:10.160 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump and he calls your little pimp to the stage,

0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:16.960
<v Speaker 1>little pimp. I mean he probably got homeboys that called

0:08:17.000 --> 0:08:20.600
<v Speaker 1>you pamper all day long? What's up pampin? So? I mean,

<v Speaker 1>did the early ballance, I made sure we filled that

0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:32.320
<v Speaker 1>all the information together because I didn't want my daughter

0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:33.839

0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:36.680

0:13:27.080 --> 0:13:30.680
<v Speaker 1>DJ very quick, Um, I've been trying to get a

0:13:30.720 --> 0:13:35.240
<v Speaker 1>house and the process is really scourging me. Um, I'm

0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:38.760
<v Speaker 1>a little old school and um, I was taught to

0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:41.920
<v Speaker 1>not put everything in the base. So I'm not able

0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 1>to get a house because the money I've been saving.

0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:48.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, they don't have the transactions of saving the

0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:50.920
<v Speaker 1>money in the Thames. You hearing me from body's house?

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Do you still have do you still get on paychecks?

0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:56.679
<v Speaker 1>You still get monthly income? Yeah? Okay, all right, Well

0:13:56.679 --> 0:13:59.880
<v Speaker 1>if the monthly income can handle your home buying, you

0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:03.439
<v Speaker 1>can always get one gift, if you know what I mean.

0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:06.160
<v Speaker 1>So somebody gives you a gift, you have enough money

0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:08.080
<v Speaker 1>for that down payment. You know you got family members

0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:09.400
<v Speaker 1>that can give you a gift. I'm not telling you

0:14:09.480 --> 0:14:11.319
<v Speaker 1>to do nothing illegal, but you can get one gift

0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:12.959
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to buy the house. And as long

0:14:13.000 --> 0:14:16.679
<v Speaker 1>as your monthly income can satisfy it. The banks that

0:14:16.720 --> 0:14:18.480
<v Speaker 1>are definitely doing. If you need somebody, I can put

0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:22.040

0:15:04.240 --> 0:15:06.360
<v Speaker 1>um a new show I'm doing on Fox Soul that

0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:08.680
<v Speaker 1>actually premiers on Thursday. So I was working on that

0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:11.640
<v Speaker 1>yesterday and on my way home, I was looking for

0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:14.760
<v Speaker 1>parking and it took me almost an hour to find

0:15:14.800 --> 0:15:17.920
<v Speaker 1>a parking spot. Fifty minutes it took me. I was

0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:20.640
<v Speaker 1>driving around in circles for fifty minutes. I just want

0:15:20.640 --> 0:15:22.200
<v Speaker 1>to get that off my chest. I don't feel bad

0:15:22.240 --> 0:15:24.680
<v Speaker 1>for you, ye me neither. I mean you you lived

0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:26.440
<v Speaker 1>ten minutes from from the city, you know. I mean

0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:28.000
<v Speaker 1>that that's part of the thing you gotta do. You

0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:30.280
<v Speaker 1>lived ten minutes from the city. So said, if you're bad.

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to get it off my chest. Take you

0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:35.720
<v Speaker 1>fifty minutes parking? You you had the option. You you

0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:38.200
<v Speaker 1>could look at the break this has ever taken me.

0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:40.600
<v Speaker 1>Be happy that you have a car to parking. That

0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:42.560
<v Speaker 1>is true. You don't even have a car to park.

0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:45.200
<v Speaker 1>That is the problem is I need oil in my car.

0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:47.160
<v Speaker 1>And it was like, if you don't get oil, now

0:15:47.320 --> 0:15:50.760
<v Speaker 1>turn off your car immediately. And I couldn't find parking

0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:52.600
<v Speaker 1>for fifty minutes. I was nervous in my car was

0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:57.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna blow up? Yo. Ye No, nobody changed. You have

0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:00.240
<v Speaker 1>to add oil or you gotta add it. What's the

0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:02.200
<v Speaker 1>lessing you change your oil on your car? I mean

0:16:02.240 --> 0:16:03.920
<v Speaker 1>what you mean change? I mean take it to go

0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:08.800
<v Speaker 1>get God damn, I had to put the oil in myself.

0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:10.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't take it to get done. I can do

0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:14.000
<v Speaker 1>that much. Is the worst car owner ever? He doesn't

0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:16.160
<v Speaker 1>put oil in a car. I don't know she have

0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:18.200
<v Speaker 1>gas in the car. When it comes to speed bumps,

0:16:18.240 --> 0:16:20.720
<v Speaker 1>she speeds up. I don't feel I don't feel sorry.

0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:22.240
<v Speaker 1>You can buy her own burker. If you can buy

0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:23.880
<v Speaker 1>your own burker, put your own oil in your car.

0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:26.400

0:16:57.680 --> 0:17:01.400
<v Speaker 1>Adrian Broner went to jail. This happened yesterday in Cleveland.

0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:03.760
<v Speaker 1>He was held in contempt of court as part of

0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:05.760
<v Speaker 1>a civil lawsuit a woman that he assaulted at a

0:17:05.840 --> 0:17:09.359
<v Speaker 1>nightclub in twenty eighteen. I had won that judgment against him.

0:17:09.359 --> 0:17:11.240
<v Speaker 1>He was ordered to pay more than eight hundred thousand

0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:14.119
<v Speaker 1>dollars back in and he was ordered to pay that

0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:17.400
<v Speaker 1>in December, and the judge said there was an Instagram

0:17:17.520 --> 0:17:20.640
<v Speaker 1>video that showed him holding large stacks of money after

0:17:20.760 --> 0:17:23.560
<v Speaker 1>saying that he had over just over thirteen dollars in

0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:26.840
<v Speaker 1>cash back on October fifth in court. So the judge

0:17:26.840 --> 0:17:29.560
<v Speaker 1>has ordered that he has to remain in jail until

0:17:30.040 --> 0:17:34.240
<v Speaker 1>to provide complete that truthful information about his finances to

0:17:34.440 --> 0:17:38.280
<v Speaker 1>the woman's attorney. Now, Adrian Brona was in court, and

0:17:38.600 --> 0:17:41.720
<v Speaker 1>here's what he had to say. Friends I got friends

0:17:42.720 --> 0:17:54.199
<v Speaker 1>were the money because I listen, because listen, and when

0:17:54.520 --> 0:18:01.280
<v Speaker 1>that moment to them, and now that tells you sending

0:18:01.320 --> 0:18:09.920
<v Speaker 1>me money my friends, and I think, God, I've never

0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:12.720
<v Speaker 1>had that peacock geane. My dad instilled that me and

0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:15.080
<v Speaker 1>me early. My dad always told me it's better to

0:18:15.160 --> 0:18:16.720
<v Speaker 1>have money than to look like you have money. He

0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:18.720
<v Speaker 1>actually would point out old white men growing up in

0:18:18.800 --> 0:18:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Mount Corner and how plain they would dress, and he'd

0:18:21.000 --> 0:18:22.960
<v Speaker 1>be like, say he's rich and you would never know.

0:18:23.040 --> 0:18:24.919
<v Speaker 1>And that's always been my mindset. It's way too much

0:18:24.920 --> 0:18:27.600
<v Speaker 1>pressure being like brothers like a b because when you

0:18:27.640 --> 0:18:30.200
<v Speaker 1>fall off boy, everybody though, and you end up looking

0:18:30.240 --> 0:18:33.240
<v Speaker 1>at sounding like that. Well it got even worse. Listen

0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:48.240
<v Speaker 1>to this, I don't sending you da listen, but showing

0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:54.879
<v Speaker 1>that you didn't have any financi damn Yearney, I spend it.

0:18:54.960 --> 0:19:00.600
<v Speaker 1>I send it on this don't about bills song. Right now,

0:19:00.840 --> 0:19:02.320
<v Speaker 1>that's what he didn't aft up right, you know, you

0:19:02.400 --> 0:19:04.480
<v Speaker 1>don't left up right, and just he just oh my goodness,

0:19:04.480 --> 0:19:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't really hear what he said. I just heard

0:19:06.040 --> 0:19:08.560
<v Speaker 1>him say that he bought Bill. I watched that video

0:19:08.600 --> 0:19:10.479
<v Speaker 1>about one hundred time yesterday. I'm trying to figure out

0:19:10.520 --> 0:19:13.080
<v Speaker 1>why ab looked like saucy Santana, Like he built like

0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:15.600
<v Speaker 1>saucy Santana in that court room, just showing all that shape?

0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:17.560
<v Speaker 1>Are you showing all that shape for that quest? That's

0:19:17.720 --> 0:19:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Santana is falling all right now. Adrian Browner also says

0:19:21.600 --> 0:19:24.199
<v Speaker 1>that he can pay, but he has a fight coming up.

0:19:24.200 --> 0:19:26.600
<v Speaker 1>He got to wait till after that. I got coming

0:19:26.640 --> 0:19:30.120
<v Speaker 1>over first. I don't take you that long usual questions.

0:19:32.440 --> 0:19:34.440
<v Speaker 1>That's your relevance feet. You know what, I'm not here

0:19:34.840 --> 0:19:36.440
<v Speaker 1>to listen. He has to say, I'm gonna give you

0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:39.720
<v Speaker 1>the money here and there and disregard every court order

0:19:39.720 --> 0:19:42.720
<v Speaker 1>in the UTU. This is a problem with Ruder because

0:19:42.720 --> 0:19:46.280
<v Speaker 1>you would ignore basically every order I've given here and now.

0:19:46.359 --> 0:19:49.040
<v Speaker 1>There isn't punishment. I giving you extensions like you give

0:19:49.080 --> 0:19:51.240
<v Speaker 1>you time. I trust you're gonna get the stone well

0:19:51.320 --> 0:19:54.199
<v Speaker 1>before you're cheating herd fire. Look see this is the thing.

0:19:54.240 --> 0:19:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't like that, though, and I'm gonna tell you why.

0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:57.639
<v Speaker 1>Even though he was. He was, he was flaussed and

0:19:57.680 --> 0:19:59.800
<v Speaker 1>he was capping online. That's all he had to say.

0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:02.240
<v Speaker 1>It's not my money. Look, I was just I was fronting,

0:20:02.560 --> 0:20:04.919
<v Speaker 1>but I have a fight. He can't make money unless

0:20:04.960 --> 0:20:07.280
<v Speaker 1>he fights. That's the whole thing. Like he's not he

0:20:07.320 --> 0:20:08.920
<v Speaker 1>doesn't have a nine to five. It's nine to five

0:20:09.040 --> 0:20:12.080
<v Speaker 1>is boxing. First of all, stop making excuses. That situation

0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:15.440
<v Speaker 1>is sad. Okay, it's absolutely no reason for a b

0:20:15.560 --> 0:20:18.240
<v Speaker 1>to be in that position other than m he just

0:20:18.400 --> 0:20:21.640
<v Speaker 1>doesn't understand financial literacy, but he is. He can't can't

0:20:21.640 --> 0:20:23.040
<v Speaker 1>bring it back. It's not like you'd be like I

0:20:23.119 --> 0:20:25.000
<v Speaker 1>made a mistake. I can. If you can't flash the

0:20:25.040 --> 0:20:27.280
<v Speaker 1>money on Instagram and you wantn't his money money and

0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:30.280
<v Speaker 1>you're saying you don't have it, stop fronting it. If

0:20:30.320 --> 0:20:31.879
<v Speaker 1>you can borrow money to that and if you know

0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:33.720
<v Speaker 1>and you should have worked out a payment plan whatever

0:20:33.760 --> 0:20:35.560
<v Speaker 1>it is that you have to do, but you just

0:20:35.760 --> 0:20:37.960
<v Speaker 1>can't flash it on Instagram, whether or not it's his.

0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:40.360
<v Speaker 1>It's just not a smart thing to do. Like, why

0:20:40.400 --> 0:20:42.200
<v Speaker 1>would you put yourself in harm's way like that, because

0:20:42.240 --> 0:20:44.520
<v Speaker 1>not only do you have legal issues you gotta deal with,

0:20:44.600 --> 0:20:46.399
<v Speaker 1>Like we see him in the court. You got wolves

0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:47.879
<v Speaker 1>out here that are trying to take your head off

0:20:47.960 --> 0:20:50.200
<v Speaker 1>or something that's not even yours. Come on and be

0:20:50.280 --> 0:20:52.480
<v Speaker 1>keeping rail if you want to judgment against someone. And

0:20:52.560 --> 0:20:54.159
<v Speaker 1>then they said they don't have the money, but then

0:20:54.200 --> 0:20:57.119
<v Speaker 1>they're flashing all this money on Instagram, you would be like, Okay,

0:20:57.160 --> 0:21:00.280
<v Speaker 1>they have it, and whether or not God this of

0:21:00.359 --> 0:21:02.680
<v Speaker 1>what is for who gave it to him? You just

0:21:02.800 --> 0:21:05.320
<v Speaker 1>can't be on the Graham doing that. That probably wasn't

0:21:05.359 --> 0:21:07.680
<v Speaker 1>his money. He was probably fronted to get some lights

0:21:07.720 --> 0:21:11.080
<v Speaker 1>like you see people do that all the time, but

0:21:11.200 --> 0:21:13.359
<v Speaker 1>not when you have a judgment against you and you

0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:16.000
<v Speaker 1>just said in court two weeks ago or whatever that

0:21:16.080 --> 0:21:19.639
<v Speaker 1>you don't have it. Listen, envy a sensitive ath let

0:21:19.760 --> 0:21:21.359
<v Speaker 1>him let that man owe him some money and he

0:21:21.440 --> 0:21:27.480
<v Speaker 1>see him on the Graham like that. Over nine Mary Jay,

0:21:27.560 --> 0:21:29.920
<v Speaker 1>what's the fall one one? You're gonna be calling everyone

0:21:30.000 --> 0:21:32.320
<v Speaker 1>one you know trying to get your money. Please. I

0:21:32.560 --> 0:21:34.800
<v Speaker 1>hope Adrian Brona does get it together. But that just

0:21:34.960 --> 0:21:37.440
<v Speaker 1>wasn't a smart thing to do. All right now, Freeway,

0:21:37.600 --> 0:21:41.800
<v Speaker 1>thank Joe Biden after Joe Biden consultant following his son's death.

0:21:41.880 --> 0:21:44.800
<v Speaker 1>This was all at Joe Biden's rally and Philly and

0:21:45.240 --> 0:21:48.200
<v Speaker 1>even though Freeways Oh the Sun passed away last week,

0:21:48.240 --> 0:21:51.040
<v Speaker 1>he still went to the rally and still performed as

0:21:51.119 --> 0:22:01.399
<v Speaker 1>part of the entertainment. So here is what happened. Start

0:22:01.480 --> 0:22:05.440
<v Speaker 1>broke from the Boston Start I a paring to burn.

0:22:05.600 --> 0:22:16.959
<v Speaker 1>So I'll tell you what. Yeah, that was classic only

0:22:17.000 --> 0:22:20.000
<v Speaker 1>all right. Freeway responded on social media, said, me and

0:22:20.080 --> 0:22:22.280
<v Speaker 1>my brother Oskina both lost our sons in the same

0:22:22.359 --> 0:22:24.720
<v Speaker 1>week to abiding thank you for the kind words. I know,

0:22:25.119 --> 0:22:27.080
<v Speaker 1>I know you know the pain that comes with losing

0:22:27.119 --> 0:22:29.520
<v Speaker 1>a son. We are from two totally different worlds, but

0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:31.600
<v Speaker 1>we can relate to each other. You have my vote

0:22:31.640 --> 0:22:33.800
<v Speaker 1>on Tuesday. The only thing I wish is when they

0:22:33.840 --> 0:22:36.000
<v Speaker 1>are prepping Joe to do those shot outs, give them

0:22:36.080 --> 0:22:37.680
<v Speaker 1>the right way to say it. Okay, you don't have

0:22:37.760 --> 0:22:42.720
<v Speaker 1>to pronounce the whole Rapper Nation Philadelphia Freeway. Okay, at

0:22:42.800 --> 0:22:47.480
<v Speaker 1>least say free from Philly Freeway from Philly somethings. Jesus, Yeah,

0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:49.679
<v Speaker 1>it's beending a little pimp though, make it sound organic.

0:22:49.760 --> 0:22:51.360
<v Speaker 1>It is better than little Pip though, it is better

0:22:51.359 --> 0:22:52.960
<v Speaker 1>than little Pip, and that really neither one of them

0:22:53.000 --> 0:22:54.480
<v Speaker 1>know they're talking about. Let make it sound a little

0:22:54.480 --> 0:22:59.359
<v Speaker 1>mo organic. That's all right, all right, well I'm Angela, yeah,

0:22:59.400 --> 0:23:02.280
<v Speaker 1>and that is your rumor reports. All right, thank you,

0:23:02.480 --> 0:23:05.040
<v Speaker 1>miss Yee. All right now, when we come back, we

0:23:05.160 --> 0:23:08.280
<v Speaker 1>have the brother Ed Gordon check it in. We got

0:23:08.320 --> 0:23:09.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot to talk about today. Of course today is

0:23:09.960 --> 0:23:12.119
<v Speaker 1>the election day, so we'll talk to Ed Gordon when

0:23:12.160 --> 0:23:14.720
<v Speaker 1>we come back. Don't move. It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning,

0:23:15.160 --> 0:23:18.359
<v Speaker 1>So Breakfast Club, your mornings will never be the same.

0:23:19.200 --> 0:23:21.720
<v Speaker 1>When a training a vehicle at a railway crossing, the

0:23:21.840 --> 0:23:25.000
<v Speaker 1>results are often deadly. Be cautious at crossings, and if

0:23:25.000 --> 0:23:27.320
<v Speaker 1>the signals are going, don't be tempted to try and

0:23:27.400 --> 0:23:29.560
<v Speaker 1>sneak across the tracks. Even if you don't see your

0:23:29.560 --> 0:23:33.960
<v Speaker 1>train stop. Trains can't brought to you by NITZA morning.

0:23:34.000 --> 0:23:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We

0:23:37.920 --> 0:23:40.680
<v Speaker 1>are the Breakfast Club. Usually we do front page news

0:23:40.880 --> 0:23:42.960
<v Speaker 1>right now, but we got the brother Ed Gordon on

0:23:43.000 --> 0:23:46.159
<v Speaker 1>the line. Good morning, sir, Good morning, Good morning Ed.

0:23:46.240 --> 0:23:48.479
<v Speaker 1>How are you my brother? I'm good man, how are

0:23:48.480 --> 0:23:50.960
<v Speaker 1>you feeling? I'm blessed black and holly favored. I know

0:23:51.080 --> 0:23:54.800
<v Speaker 1>you've seen a feudis in your lifetime, man, None quite

0:23:54.880 --> 0:23:57.440
<v Speaker 1>like this though. So so what you think the world

0:23:57.520 --> 0:23:59.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna look like after the day? Man? You know? I

0:24:00.560 --> 0:24:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I pray that the world looks like that. We will

0:24:04.280 --> 0:24:06.280
<v Speaker 1>pull that moving van up to the White House and

0:24:06.720 --> 0:24:08.600
<v Speaker 1>get this idiot out of the oval. As I like

0:24:08.760 --> 0:24:11.320
<v Speaker 1>to say, you know, throughout my career, I have never

0:24:11.440 --> 0:24:15.080
<v Speaker 1>come out against publicly any president who sat in office,

0:24:15.240 --> 0:24:19.440
<v Speaker 1>even those that I disagreed with vehementley on a policy side.

0:24:19.920 --> 0:24:22.000
<v Speaker 1>But this man is dangerous. We've been saying it now

0:24:22.080 --> 0:24:27.119
<v Speaker 1>for four years. Dangerous, incompetent. He has appointed all of

0:24:27.160 --> 0:24:29.200
<v Speaker 1>these federal judges, all the things that we've said that

0:24:29.280 --> 0:24:31.960
<v Speaker 1>will affect us long before he leaves, whether he leaves

0:24:32.440 --> 0:24:35.160
<v Speaker 1>in January of twenty twenty one or whether he leaves

0:24:35.160 --> 0:24:39.040
<v Speaker 1>in another four years. He has impacted our lives negatively

0:24:39.200 --> 0:24:41.800
<v Speaker 1>for a long, long time. Man, So we got to

0:24:41.840 --> 0:24:46.080
<v Speaker 1>get out there. I posted a article on bt dot

0:24:46.119 --> 0:24:48.720
<v Speaker 1>com yesterday, and I'm still amazed that the black folks

0:24:48.760 --> 0:24:53.480
<v Speaker 1>who sometimes say just pushing people to vote is putting

0:24:53.520 --> 0:24:56.119
<v Speaker 1>too much on our community. Why is everybody you know

0:24:56.240 --> 0:24:59.560
<v Speaker 1>blaming us for the vote. Why is everybody suggesting that

0:24:59.720 --> 0:25:02.600
<v Speaker 1>it's up to us. It is up to us. You know,

0:25:02.720 --> 0:25:05.080
<v Speaker 1>this is one of the few times that we really

0:25:05.200 --> 0:25:08.119
<v Speaker 1>have the opportunity to have a push in a sway

0:25:08.640 --> 0:25:11.440
<v Speaker 1>and how our lives are affected in this nation. And

0:25:11.600 --> 0:25:15.680
<v Speaker 1>so anybody who was in these swing states, who is

0:25:15.760 --> 0:25:19.960
<v Speaker 1>registered and has yet to vote needs to get out online.

0:25:20.040 --> 0:25:22.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, when we lost CT Vivian and John Lewis,

0:25:22.440 --> 0:25:24.359
<v Speaker 1>we all talked about their legacy and what we were

0:25:24.400 --> 0:25:27.680
<v Speaker 1>going to do. Well, no better way to salute those

0:25:27.760 --> 0:25:30.920
<v Speaker 1>men than to vote today. And we're talking about the

0:25:30.960 --> 0:25:34.480
<v Speaker 1>states like Michigan, George of Florida, North Carolina, and Ohio

0:25:35.160 --> 0:25:37.480
<v Speaker 1>of the means, when we really need Florida black people

0:25:37.480 --> 0:25:41.119
<v Speaker 1>to get out there in Pennsylvania, Kelly, Philly's got to

0:25:41.160 --> 0:25:44.720
<v Speaker 1>turn out, Pittsburgh turnout. We gotta do this now. Also,

0:25:44.760 --> 0:25:47.600
<v Speaker 1>you're hosting a special or NAACP to host a two

0:25:47.640 --> 0:25:50.800
<v Speaker 1>day special talking about the black voter experience. And we

0:25:50.840 --> 0:25:52.840
<v Speaker 1>were telling people they gotta be careful go with each

0:25:52.840 --> 0:25:55.720
<v Speaker 1>other because they're gonna be trying to intimidate us like crazy.

0:25:55.840 --> 0:25:58.560
<v Speaker 1>Talk about that a little bit. That's right. I've been

0:25:58.640 --> 0:26:00.800
<v Speaker 1>doing these and Charlemagne was part of one of them.

0:26:01.119 --> 0:26:04.080
<v Speaker 1>These town hall meetings throughout the pandemic for the NAACP,

0:26:04.680 --> 0:26:07.640
<v Speaker 1>and so we wanted to do something on election night.

0:26:07.760 --> 0:26:10.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, CNN we'll have great coverage, MS will have

0:26:10.600 --> 0:26:14.240
<v Speaker 1>great coverage. But we also wanted to give us an

0:26:14.280 --> 0:26:18.760
<v Speaker 1>opportunity to give what we says. What we say is unfettered, um,

0:26:19.080 --> 0:26:23.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, black perspective. And so from seven to midnight,

0:26:23.800 --> 0:26:25.720
<v Speaker 1>and we may go a little longer, I'll be on

0:26:25.920 --> 0:26:28.680
<v Speaker 1>anchoring with Derek Johnson. He'll be coming in and out.

0:26:29.320 --> 0:26:31.680
<v Speaker 1>CEO of the NDAAC people. We got people like Michael,

0:26:31.800 --> 0:26:34.760
<v Speaker 1>Eric Dyson, and Jamal Hill, d L. Hughley will be

0:26:34.880 --> 0:26:38.040
<v Speaker 1>on with us. You know, the list goes on and on,

0:26:38.400 --> 0:26:41.560
<v Speaker 1>and we'll be talking about you know, where we sit

0:26:41.720 --> 0:26:43.960
<v Speaker 1>throughout the evening. We'll have elected official. We'll also be

0:26:44.040 --> 0:26:46.240
<v Speaker 1>taking phone calls. You know, we want to hear from people.

0:26:46.280 --> 0:26:48.480
<v Speaker 1>If voter intimidation is going on, we need to hear it.

0:26:48.680 --> 0:26:51.720
<v Speaker 1>DACP is going to dispatch people to these polls. So

0:26:52.320 --> 0:26:53.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, we're gonna do as much as we can

0:26:53.960 --> 0:26:56.560
<v Speaker 1>to be protective of, you know, our ability to get

0:26:56.600 --> 0:27:00.240
<v Speaker 1>out there because it's go time. It's time. You know,

0:27:00.440 --> 0:27:02.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm with you on getting this fascist out the White House, right,

0:27:03.040 --> 0:27:05.359
<v Speaker 1>But I don't think that. I don't think what the

0:27:05.440 --> 0:27:07.800
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are doing is a sustainable model because when you

0:27:07.840 --> 0:27:10.119
<v Speaker 1>think about the base of the Democratic Party, black women,

0:27:10.240 --> 0:27:14.359
<v Speaker 1>black men, them stand deludes us because every presidential election

0:27:14.480 --> 0:27:16.800
<v Speaker 1>is the same thing. Short up for Democrats, you know,

0:27:17.000 --> 0:27:19.080
<v Speaker 1>But when they're gonna show up for us is a question.

0:27:19.160 --> 0:27:21.879
<v Speaker 1>So many black people keep asking. Right, two things that

0:27:21.920 --> 0:27:25.119
<v Speaker 1>I will agree with you one thousand percent. One of

0:27:25.160 --> 0:27:28.200
<v Speaker 1>the problems is Democrats have been outplayed politically for years

0:27:28.280 --> 0:27:32.000
<v Speaker 1>and years and years. You know, when you have numbers

0:27:32.400 --> 0:27:35.399
<v Speaker 1>every time you go into an election, but somehow you

0:27:35.520 --> 0:27:38.680
<v Speaker 1>can't turn those numbers out to defeat your opponents. Something's wrong.

0:27:39.640 --> 0:27:42.639
<v Speaker 1>The other thing is it's an incumbent upon us to

0:27:43.119 --> 0:27:46.520
<v Speaker 1>make sure that we start playing the game past election day.

0:27:46.800 --> 0:27:49.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, too many of us state election day is

0:27:49.040 --> 0:27:51.359
<v Speaker 1>your last day. You did your duty and now you

0:27:51.480 --> 0:27:54.280
<v Speaker 1>walk away and you wait for things to happen. Election

0:27:54.400 --> 0:27:57.080
<v Speaker 1>day should be day one for you, particularly if your

0:27:57.119 --> 0:28:00.600
<v Speaker 1>candidate gets in office, because the own the reason that

0:28:00.760 --> 0:28:03.680
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden won the nomination is because of black folks

0:28:03.680 --> 0:28:06.920
<v Speaker 1>in South Carolina. No if fans of Butts had he

0:28:07.040 --> 0:28:10.359
<v Speaker 1>lost that it's over, he's done, you know. So what

0:28:10.520 --> 0:28:12.600
<v Speaker 1>we've got to do is make sure that we play

0:28:12.680 --> 0:28:17.320
<v Speaker 1>the game beyond tonight, particularly if Biden wins. And so

0:28:18.600 --> 0:28:21.639
<v Speaker 1>I agree with you one thousand percent, though, Democrats are

0:28:21.680 --> 0:28:23.720
<v Speaker 1>going to have to find a new model and a

0:28:23.800 --> 0:28:25.879
<v Speaker 1>new way of doing things. And we can no longer

0:28:26.240 --> 0:28:28.920
<v Speaker 1>the accepting of you know, the cliche of them showing

0:28:29.000 --> 0:28:32.000
<v Speaker 1>up at a black church every four years, you know,

0:28:32.240 --> 0:28:34.200
<v Speaker 1>giving us hugs and you know, putting a couple of

0:28:34.280 --> 0:28:36.920
<v Speaker 1>dollars in the plate and we're happy. And to the

0:28:37.040 --> 0:28:41.280
<v Speaker 1>CBC and black leaders, I say, it's not enough for

0:28:41.440 --> 0:28:45.719
<v Speaker 1>you to be just invited to the Christmas party at

0:28:45.760 --> 0:28:48.040
<v Speaker 1>the White House and you know, take pictures in the

0:28:48.160 --> 0:28:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Rose Garden and you're cool with that. You know, we've

0:28:51.080 --> 0:28:54.560
<v Speaker 1>been struggling as community for far too long, for far

0:28:54.640 --> 0:28:58.120
<v Speaker 1>too long. It's unacceptable for us to take any leader black, white,

0:28:58.160 --> 0:29:01.360
<v Speaker 1>or otherwise, you know, take us for granted anymore. But

0:29:01.480 --> 0:29:04.080
<v Speaker 1>we're talking to Ed Gordon and you mentioned the first

0:29:04.200 --> 0:29:06.600
<v Speaker 1>day it should be when the president starts. So if

0:29:06.680 --> 0:29:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Biden wins, what would you want for him for Black

0:29:09.360 --> 0:29:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Americans for the first let's say, the first year of

0:29:12.000 --> 0:29:14.800
<v Speaker 1>first hundred days. I mean, you know, and I never

0:29:15.000 --> 0:29:17.800
<v Speaker 1>I never look at that. That's that artificial number media

0:29:17.880 --> 0:29:19.840
<v Speaker 1>made up. We'd like to look at the first hundred days.

0:29:19.880 --> 0:29:21.680
<v Speaker 1>You look at most people's first hundred days. They don't

0:29:21.680 --> 0:29:23.320
<v Speaker 1>do a damn thing in those first hundred days. What

0:29:23.360 --> 0:29:26.720
<v Speaker 1>I would like, though, is I'm again placing it more

0:29:26.840 --> 0:29:30.600
<v Speaker 1>on our leadership to have asks, you know, what are

0:29:30.640 --> 0:29:32.800
<v Speaker 1>we walking in in those first hundred days and say,

0:29:32.960 --> 0:29:35.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, this is what we want, this is what

0:29:35.160 --> 0:29:37.520
<v Speaker 1>we want for our vote. Um. And you know, part

0:29:37.520 --> 0:29:40.520
<v Speaker 1>of the issue with any group is who goes in

0:29:40.640 --> 0:29:42.920
<v Speaker 1>and makes that ask. You know, back in the day,

0:29:43.160 --> 0:29:46.240
<v Speaker 1>and we were never in lockstep. It was never one leader.

0:29:46.560 --> 0:29:49.200
<v Speaker 1>It was never that we all followed King, never that

0:29:49.320 --> 0:29:54.280
<v Speaker 1>we all followed Malcolm or Marcus or anyone. But there

0:29:54.320 --> 0:29:57.360
<v Speaker 1>were there were groups that had more of a sway

0:29:57.840 --> 0:30:00.240
<v Speaker 1>and it was a more a singular thing out of

0:30:00.320 --> 0:30:03.640
<v Speaker 1>where where we're going. We got desperate asked, now, uh,

0:30:03.800 --> 0:30:05.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, these these leaders are going to have to

0:30:05.840 --> 0:30:09.440
<v Speaker 1>determine to a great degree amongst themselves. Um. And part

0:30:09.520 --> 0:30:12.000
<v Speaker 1>of that it's just you know, political and who's networked

0:30:12.000 --> 0:30:14.200
<v Speaker 1>and who's closer. But what are you going in and

0:30:14.320 --> 0:30:17.080
<v Speaker 1>ask for uh, you know, and I think that we

0:30:17.240 --> 0:30:21.280
<v Speaker 1>have to look at for me. Police reform, real police

0:30:21.320 --> 0:30:24.520
<v Speaker 1>reform with teeth is something that impacts all of us.

0:30:25.160 --> 0:30:28.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, I'm sixty years old. Man. If I throw

0:30:28.080 --> 0:30:31.400
<v Speaker 1>this hoodie up and I ride in a car, I

0:30:31.520 --> 0:30:36.480
<v Speaker 1>could be pulled over, shot and killed by police because

0:30:36.520 --> 0:30:38.000
<v Speaker 1>you look thirty. Well, I don't know if I look

0:30:38.040 --> 0:30:41.560
<v Speaker 1>at thirty, bro, I appreciate it. But but the idea

0:30:41.640 --> 0:30:43.320
<v Speaker 1>that you know, we used to say, oh, young black

0:30:43.400 --> 0:30:45.520
<v Speaker 1>men are in danger. We're all in danger man. Right.

0:30:45.880 --> 0:30:48.040
<v Speaker 1>You got a look the little bit of melon and

0:30:48.120 --> 0:30:51.520
<v Speaker 1>I got rolling. I'm in danger, right. So we have

0:30:51.800 --> 0:30:55.200
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that we do not take this any longer.

0:30:55.560 --> 0:30:58.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, we've been silent and docile too long, and

0:30:58.520 --> 0:31:01.280
<v Speaker 1>it's time for us to keep this up. You know.

0:31:01.320 --> 0:31:04.640
<v Speaker 1>I just did an interview with Felonious Floyd, George Floyd's brother,

0:31:05.360 --> 0:31:09.600
<v Speaker 1>and he got emotionally said, mister Gordon, you know I'm struggling.

0:31:10.000 --> 0:31:12.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm struggling, and we as a community continue to struggle,

0:31:13.160 --> 0:31:16.040
<v Speaker 1>and we've got to back one another up, you know,

0:31:16.400 --> 0:31:19.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean literally stand back to back and keep each

0:31:19.080 --> 0:31:23.120
<v Speaker 1>other's back, and we can no longer, you know, be

0:31:23.280 --> 0:31:26.480
<v Speaker 1>sideline and sidetracked by the foolishness. We've been sideline and

0:31:26.560 --> 0:31:29.200
<v Speaker 1>sidetrack for too long. Yeah, for all of us who

0:31:29.240 --> 0:31:31.520
<v Speaker 1>got platforms voices, it's up to us to connect with

0:31:31.600 --> 0:31:33.719
<v Speaker 1>folks who are already doing the work and help them

0:31:33.760 --> 0:31:36.800
<v Speaker 1>push those demands they're making, you know, whether it's on

0:31:36.880 --> 0:31:40.280
<v Speaker 1>a local level, national level, whatever. Yeah, we talked to

0:31:40.320 --> 0:31:44.560
<v Speaker 1>Amanda Seals. It'll be on tonight during our coverage and

0:31:44.720 --> 0:31:46.760
<v Speaker 1>you can find that coverage on the end up ACP

0:31:47.000 --> 0:31:50.240
<v Speaker 1>social platforms, on my Facebook page, Bounces carrying it on

0:31:50.320 --> 0:31:52.960
<v Speaker 1>their digital channels. It'll be all over and you go

0:31:53.080 --> 0:31:56.080
<v Speaker 1>to my Instagram and ed L Gordon and get the information.

0:31:56.160 --> 0:31:58.760
<v Speaker 1>But Amanda said the exact same thing. She said, Look,

0:31:58.800 --> 0:32:01.600
<v Speaker 1>I've got a platform now. She said it in the

0:32:02.160 --> 0:32:04.840
<v Speaker 1>in the interview that she's a learned woman from Colombia,

0:32:04.960 --> 0:32:07.400
<v Speaker 1>has studied policy and the like. She said, But my

0:32:08.040 --> 0:32:10.400
<v Speaker 1>but she said, you know, I'm not an organizer, I'm

0:32:10.400 --> 0:32:12.480
<v Speaker 1>not a politician. I'm not but I have a platform.

0:32:12.800 --> 0:32:15.160
<v Speaker 1>And he's absolutely right, man. You know, those of us

0:32:15.240 --> 0:32:17.800
<v Speaker 1>who have you know, been blessed with a platform need

0:32:17.880 --> 0:32:20.720
<v Speaker 1>to utilize it with the right people. You know, and

0:32:20.920 --> 0:32:24.720
<v Speaker 1>and look, you know, rappers have every bit, actors have

0:32:24.920 --> 0:32:27.640
<v Speaker 1>every bit, singers have every bit, the right to have

0:32:27.800 --> 0:32:30.680
<v Speaker 1>a voice, but that does not mean you follow them.

0:32:31.320 --> 0:32:35.400
<v Speaker 1>For you know, uh, you know your your political insight,

0:32:35.520 --> 0:32:39.000
<v Speaker 1>quote unquote. You can if you choose, but you know,

0:32:39.760 --> 0:32:42.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to do that. God bless them all,

0:32:43.080 --> 0:32:45.680
<v Speaker 1>but I don't want to put our future in their hands.

0:32:45.760 --> 0:32:48.360

0:33:18.800 --> 0:33:20.840
<v Speaker 1>on the Zoom right now. She is the host of

0:33:20.960 --> 0:33:23.960
<v Speaker 1>the Straight Shot No Chase of podcast on The Black Effect.

0:33:24.040 --> 0:33:29.520
<v Speaker 1>iHeartRadio podcast network. Teslin figure Out, Good morning family, Glad

0:33:29.600 --> 0:33:32.600
<v Speaker 1>to be back. How are you feeling? I'm feeling really good,

0:33:32.840 --> 0:33:35.560
<v Speaker 1>really really good. How are you, guys? I'm blessed Black

0:33:35.600 --> 0:33:38.200
<v Speaker 1>and Holly favorite. Leaning into the uncertainty of the week.

0:33:38.240 --> 0:33:40.120
<v Speaker 1>We don't know what the world gonna look like after

0:33:40.880 --> 0:33:44.760
<v Speaker 1>after this election. We're nervous, are you really? You know what?

0:33:45.000 --> 0:33:46.520
<v Speaker 1>One of the one thing that we know for sure

0:33:46.760 --> 0:33:49.800
<v Speaker 1>is the day after the election doesn't change for us,

0:33:50.000 --> 0:33:51.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, those of us who have been pushing on,

0:33:51.960 --> 0:33:55.240
<v Speaker 1>pushing on the ground, pushing for a black agenda, pushing

0:33:55.400 --> 0:33:58.240
<v Speaker 1>for the importance of a black vote. We also know

0:33:58.360 --> 0:34:00.400
<v Speaker 1>that everybody going to work for sure, you know. I

0:34:00.520 --> 0:34:02.720
<v Speaker 1>know there's a lot of you know, hysteria about what's

0:34:02.720 --> 0:34:04.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna happen. Well, a lot of y'all gonna be clocking

0:34:04.600 --> 0:34:06.800
<v Speaker 1>in just like you clock in every other day. You're

0:34:06.800 --> 0:34:09.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna pay your bills just like you do every other week,

0:34:09.480 --> 0:34:11.200
<v Speaker 1>you know. So I think it's really important that people

0:34:11.280 --> 0:34:13.640
<v Speaker 1>kind of take a pause and just kind of sit

0:34:13.719 --> 0:34:15.680
<v Speaker 1>back and reflect. You know, there's so much going on

0:34:15.840 --> 0:34:19.320
<v Speaker 1>in two twenty. I lost a grandmother, great grandmother on

0:34:19.440 --> 0:34:22.480
<v Speaker 1>last Friday. And when I think about and reflect, you

0:34:22.520 --> 0:34:26.359
<v Speaker 1>know how time is not promised to anybody, And I'm

0:34:26.440 --> 0:34:29.279
<v Speaker 1>really just over the hysterias, Charlemagne, you know what I mean.

0:34:29.400 --> 0:34:32.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm ready to get it over with, probably not for

0:34:32.520 --> 0:34:36.640
<v Speaker 1>the reasons that would be ideal, but really just so

0:34:36.800 --> 0:34:39.960
<v Speaker 1>everybody can calm down. My grandmother's eighty nine, and I

0:34:40.040 --> 0:34:41.440
<v Speaker 1>can't be on the phone with her five or ten

0:34:41.480 --> 0:34:44.759
<v Speaker 1>minutes without a talking about Trump. My aunt is sixty five.

0:34:44.840 --> 0:34:46.120
<v Speaker 1>I can't be on the phone with her five or

0:34:46.160 --> 0:34:48.359
<v Speaker 1>two minutes without here talking about Trump. So people are

0:34:48.400 --> 0:34:51.359
<v Speaker 1>just at such a high level of anxiety that I'm

0:34:51.440 --> 0:34:52.880
<v Speaker 1>just ready for it to be over with so that

0:34:53.000 --> 0:34:55.960
<v Speaker 1>we can kind of reassess and move forward. I feel

0:34:55.960 --> 0:34:57.880
<v Speaker 1>you're on that tasing because my parents came over this

0:34:58.000 --> 0:35:00.279
<v Speaker 1>weekend and Isaac, can y'all not talk about that for

0:35:00.400 --> 0:35:03.920
<v Speaker 1>like five minutes? My dad non stop text messages, like

0:35:04.040 --> 0:35:08.360
<v Speaker 1>family group text messages. It's all like articles and posts

0:35:08.400 --> 0:35:11.359
<v Speaker 1>about Donald Trump. And it's kind of like, well, it's

0:35:11.360 --> 0:35:13.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot, you know, And it depends on who you

0:35:13.239 --> 0:35:15.480
<v Speaker 1>talked to, what news you watch, what news doatlet you

0:35:15.520 --> 0:35:18.600
<v Speaker 1>watch you here a different things. Yeah, it's a lot.

0:35:19.160 --> 0:35:21.480
<v Speaker 1>I always wanted everybody to be up up, you know

0:35:21.480 --> 0:35:23.399
<v Speaker 1>when we say stay woke. But I'm kind of ready

0:35:23.440 --> 0:35:24.960
<v Speaker 1>for some people to come back to sleep for real.

0:35:25.200 --> 0:35:28.080
<v Speaker 1>You know. Now I wanted everybody involved, but I kind

0:35:28.120 --> 0:35:30.000
<v Speaker 1>of changed my mind. Some people need to go back

0:35:30.040 --> 0:35:32.360
<v Speaker 1>to sleep. Yeah, some of these people so woke that

0:35:32.440 --> 0:35:34.520
<v Speaker 1>they tired. They need some sleep. So they're not even

0:35:34.560 --> 0:35:37.600
<v Speaker 1>thinking straight no more, they're not even talking straight no more. Right,

0:35:38.400 --> 0:35:42.120
<v Speaker 1>what are your predictions for the election time? You know,

0:35:42.280 --> 0:35:44.320
<v Speaker 1>I keep saying it belonged to the streets. You know,

0:35:44.440 --> 0:35:47.040
<v Speaker 1>I think none of us, none of us can really

0:35:47.280 --> 0:35:49.880
<v Speaker 1>predict anything because we did that and well I didn't,

0:35:49.920 --> 0:35:52.240
<v Speaker 1>but a lot of folks did that in twenty sixteen

0:35:52.680 --> 0:35:54.560
<v Speaker 1>and we saw the predictions are wrong. What I've been

0:35:54.600 --> 0:35:58.080
<v Speaker 1>focusing on, Charlemagne, is actually looking at the data, early

0:35:58.200 --> 0:36:00.399
<v Speaker 1>voting data. You know. So when we look at early

0:36:00.480 --> 0:36:03.520
<v Speaker 1>voting data, Democrats are coming ahead. You know, there's a

0:36:03.560 --> 0:36:07.000
<v Speaker 1>conversation saying that Pennsylvania, the black vote needs to get out,

0:36:07.120 --> 0:36:09.880
<v Speaker 1>needs to do more hashtag. We will not be blaming

0:36:09.920 --> 0:36:12.560
<v Speaker 1>black men, and we certainly won't be blaming black voters.

0:36:12.840 --> 0:36:15.680
<v Speaker 1>But when I look at the actual data Democrats they

0:36:15.760 --> 0:36:18.480
<v Speaker 1>putting in work, you know, I believe the last time

0:36:18.520 --> 0:36:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I looked at us, over between fifty and sixty percent

0:36:21.560 --> 0:36:24.040
<v Speaker 1>of those in Pennsylvania with only a little bit over

0:36:24.200 --> 0:36:28.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty percent of Republicans. Does that mean a flood won't

0:36:28.040 --> 0:36:30.800
<v Speaker 1>come in between you know, today and tomorrow. Does it

0:36:30.960 --> 0:36:33.120
<v Speaker 1>mean that people won't show up on election day? Of

0:36:33.200 --> 0:36:36.520
<v Speaker 1>course there's still that possibility. But based on the data,

0:36:36.760 --> 0:36:39.320
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are coming ahead. But we can't just assume that

0:36:39.400 --> 0:36:41.759
<v Speaker 1>everybody's a Democrat and votes Democrat. What if some of

0:36:41.800 --> 0:36:45.000
<v Speaker 1>these Democrats on board with Trump. What if the twenty

0:36:45.040 --> 0:36:48.040
<v Speaker 1>percent of the Republicans you see turning in a ballots

0:36:48.080 --> 0:36:52.000
<v Speaker 1>in Pennsylvania, what if they riding with Biden. So we

0:36:52.120 --> 0:36:54.960
<v Speaker 1>can't take things for granted. And that's what the biggest

0:36:55.040 --> 0:36:57.680
<v Speaker 1>lesson of twenty twenty is, which we still didn't learn

0:36:57.719 --> 0:37:00.120
<v Speaker 1>in two thousand and sixteen, is that no vote can

0:37:00.160 --> 0:37:02.040
<v Speaker 1>be taken for granted at anytime. So I'm just not

0:37:02.160 --> 0:37:05.120
<v Speaker 1>predicting anything except I know on the fourth, the day after,

0:37:05.320 --> 0:37:07.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting back to work doing the things that I've

0:37:07.080 --> 0:37:09.560
<v Speaker 1>been doing for the last twenty years. Now sad people,

0:37:09.560 --> 0:37:11.800
<v Speaker 1>I think by the fourth will already know the outcome.

0:37:11.840 --> 0:37:13.520
<v Speaker 1>But of course they're still going to be ballots that

0:37:13.600 --> 0:37:15.960
<v Speaker 1>have to be counted, right, So can you break that

0:37:16.080 --> 0:37:19.760
<v Speaker 1>down like when will we know who won the election? Sure,

0:37:20.040 --> 0:37:23.319
<v Speaker 1>you remember in Iowa during the Democrat primary when there

0:37:23.360 --> 0:37:25.320
<v Speaker 1>was a big mix up about who won the election.

0:37:25.400 --> 0:37:27.840
<v Speaker 1>We still don't know. It's amazing that nobody brings it

0:37:28.000 --> 0:37:31.040
<v Speaker 1>up like that just totally just went away. So I

0:37:31.400 --> 0:37:35.800
<v Speaker 1>can't tell you because looking at Iowa again, big issue

0:37:35.880 --> 0:37:38.479
<v Speaker 1>during the Democrat primary, we never really found out who wins.

0:37:38.480 --> 0:37:42.319
<v Speaker 1>There was also suspicion about New Hampshire, what mayor Pete

0:37:42.680 --> 0:37:46.040
<v Speaker 1>and Bernie Sanderson who won that? So I really don't know.

0:37:46.719 --> 0:37:48.879
<v Speaker 1>It is so much of a it's gonna depend where

0:37:48.920 --> 0:37:52.520
<v Speaker 1>it is, how much influence that vote has, what they

0:37:52.600 --> 0:37:55.319
<v Speaker 1>can contest in the courts, how fast the courts get

0:37:55.400 --> 0:37:57.520
<v Speaker 1>through that. If we ever get an answer, if it

0:37:57.680 --> 0:38:01.560
<v Speaker 1>is decidedly won by either Trump or Biden, we can

0:38:01.640 --> 0:38:03.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of go on with our lives and let them

0:38:03.200 --> 0:38:05.400
<v Speaker 1>flush all of that out. It's really gonna come down

0:38:05.480 --> 0:38:09.560
<v Speaker 1>to how close it is and where that state, you know,

0:38:09.600 --> 0:38:11.600
<v Speaker 1>where it actually happened, on how we're going to be

0:38:11.640 --> 0:38:13.960
<v Speaker 1>able to move. So I'm hoping for a decidedly win,

0:38:14.040 --> 0:38:17.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, a straight up landslide, no question about it,

0:38:17.800 --> 0:38:19.480
<v Speaker 1>This is the winner, so that we can kind of

0:38:19.520 --> 0:38:21.480
<v Speaker 1>move on. But I think we all agree that don't

0:38:21.480 --> 0:38:24.120
<v Speaker 1>matter what the result is, if it's not in Trump's favor,

0:38:24.200 --> 0:38:26.040
<v Speaker 1>he will be contesting. And I think we all know

0:38:26.200 --> 0:38:28.640
<v Speaker 1>that for sure. We don't know nothing else. Yeah, you know,

0:38:28.760 --> 0:38:31.200
<v Speaker 1>regardless of the outcome. And you've you've mentioned this a

0:38:31.280 --> 0:38:33.600
<v Speaker 1>couple of times, like what should black people be doing

0:38:33.680 --> 0:38:36.280
<v Speaker 1>after this election? Because that's what I think people don't understand.

0:38:36.280 --> 0:38:38.480
<v Speaker 1>Regards of who wins, black people still going to be

0:38:38.520 --> 0:38:40.600
<v Speaker 1>in a certain condition in this country. What should we

0:38:40.640 --> 0:38:44.960
<v Speaker 1>be doing after this election? That's absolutely correct talking speaking

0:38:45.080 --> 0:38:47.719
<v Speaker 1>from our brother, good brother killer Mike about planning, plot

0:38:47.800 --> 0:38:52.279
<v Speaker 1>and strategizing, organizing. Also, our Black Party, which is a

0:38:52.360 --> 0:38:54.440
<v Speaker 1>group you know that a lot of us has tapped

0:38:54.480 --> 0:38:57.840
<v Speaker 1>into to support. That is an organization that is a

0:38:57.920 --> 0:39:01.800
<v Speaker 1>pack of nonpartisan organization that is focused on a black agenda.

0:39:02.600 --> 0:39:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Ballot down candidates really important with putting black folks in office,

0:39:06.280 --> 0:39:08.319
<v Speaker 1>but not just black because you're black, but those who

0:39:08.320 --> 0:39:11.560
<v Speaker 1>are actually supporting the agenda. That's a good organization. I

0:39:11.640 --> 0:39:14.239
<v Speaker 1>think people really need to connect to something. It's kind

0:39:14.280 --> 0:39:17.880
<v Speaker 1>of like after the election that high goals down and

0:39:18.239 --> 0:39:21.279
<v Speaker 1>we never really capitalize on it. After two thousand and

0:39:21.320 --> 0:39:25.680
<v Speaker 1>eight and twenty twelve, people just celebrated, they drank the

0:39:25.760 --> 0:39:28.440
<v Speaker 1>champagne and then it went flat. And so when you

0:39:28.480 --> 0:39:30.600
<v Speaker 1>look at Florida, which is my political stomping ground, just

0:39:30.719 --> 0:39:33.759
<v Speaker 1>using that as an example, when those folks you know,

0:39:33.880 --> 0:39:35.960
<v Speaker 1>just kind of when flat and started celebrating, it is

0:39:36.040 --> 0:39:39.600
<v Speaker 1>why Andrew Gilliam wasn't able to still win like that matters.

0:39:39.680 --> 0:39:41.719
<v Speaker 1>He came close, but it would have been so much

0:39:41.760 --> 0:39:45.719
<v Speaker 1>closer if a Democrat Party had invested in candidates, you know,

0:39:45.800 --> 0:39:48.840
<v Speaker 1>in the Democrat Party, if they invested in operations on

0:39:48.920 --> 0:39:51.480
<v Speaker 1>the ground. The hard truth of the matter is Florida

0:39:51.640 --> 0:39:53.920
<v Speaker 1>is now an issue because you don't spend money with

0:39:54.000 --> 0:39:56.759
<v Speaker 1>black media, you do not spend money on black consultants.

0:39:57.080 --> 0:39:59.879
<v Speaker 1>You do not, you know, invest in the hood person,

0:40:00.360 --> 0:40:02.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, to get actual organizers on the ground, Be

0:40:02.520 --> 0:40:05.000
<v Speaker 1>quite honest with you. Mike Bloomberg doing the Democrat primary

0:40:05.160 --> 0:40:07.800
<v Speaker 1>was one of the few that actually invested that was

0:40:07.840 --> 0:40:10.120
<v Speaker 1>giving people money in their pockets on the street to

0:40:10.280 --> 0:40:12.239
<v Speaker 1>go out and push his campaign. But obviously he didn't

0:40:12.239 --> 0:40:14.560
<v Speaker 1>make it through the Democrat primary. So those types of

0:40:14.640 --> 0:40:17.600
<v Speaker 1>things have to happen year over year over year in

0:40:17.840 --> 0:40:20.600
<v Speaker 1>order for it to push up to the top. And

0:40:20.719 --> 0:40:23.200
<v Speaker 1>so I'm hoping that you just latch onto something. You

0:40:23.280 --> 0:40:25.480
<v Speaker 1>don't have to agree with my position, you don't have

0:40:25.480 --> 0:40:28.120
<v Speaker 1>to agree with our Black Party or what Killer Mike

0:40:28.200 --> 0:40:31.240
<v Speaker 1>says or whoever's out there, but it latch onto something

0:40:31.280 --> 0:40:33.360
<v Speaker 1>because if not, then you lose that a journaline and

0:40:33.400 --> 0:40:36.040
<v Speaker 1>we have to start all the way over in another

0:40:36.120 --> 0:40:38.680
<v Speaker 1>four years, all the way from the start. So one

0:40:38.719 --> 0:40:40.759
<v Speaker 1>thing Trump has done is woke a lot of folks up.

0:40:40.800 --> 0:40:44.000
<v Speaker 1>For sure, it may have been a splash of cold water,

0:40:45.000 --> 0:40:47.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, the way you don't want to wake up.

0:40:47.040 --> 0:40:48.920
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't a general wake up, wake up, but it

0:40:49.040 --> 0:40:51.200
<v Speaker 1>was a splash of cold water. And so I'm hoping

0:40:51.239 --> 0:40:54.200
<v Speaker 1>that people really get involved the day after all, we

0:40:54.280 --> 0:40:56.120
<v Speaker 1>have more with Teslain, figure out when we come back,

0:40:56.200 --> 0:40:58.880
<v Speaker 1>don't move. It's the Breakfast Club, Good morning morning. Everybody

0:40:58.960 --> 0:41:02.520
<v Speaker 1>is st. V Angela yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are

0:41:02.600 --> 0:41:04.600
<v Speaker 1>the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Tesla and

0:41:04.680 --> 0:41:08.080
<v Speaker 1>Figaro yee. How do you explain these hip hop artists

0:41:08.120 --> 0:41:10.960
<v Speaker 1>like a Little Wind or a Waka Flocka who are

0:41:11.080 --> 0:41:13.960
<v Speaker 1>coming forward and put in their support behind Donald Trump.

0:41:14.200 --> 0:41:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I've been talking about hip hop and politics for the

0:41:16.520 --> 0:41:21.480
<v Speaker 1>last decade plus, and I was told by elected officials

0:41:21.560 --> 0:41:24.000
<v Speaker 1>that it was a waste of time that nobody pays

0:41:24.040 --> 0:41:27.600
<v Speaker 1>attention to that demographic, nobody listens to hip hop artists

0:41:27.600 --> 0:41:29.799
<v Speaker 1>and so forth. I ran for office for about three

0:41:29.840 --> 0:41:32.920
<v Speaker 1>months and immediately got off the ballot. But when I

0:41:33.040 --> 0:41:35.040
<v Speaker 1>was on office, when I ran for office with three months,

0:41:35.280 --> 0:41:39.320
<v Speaker 1>I involved hip hop in my campaign, from music to

0:41:39.560 --> 0:41:43.200
<v Speaker 1>outreach to really going towards that demographic that is not

0:41:43.280 --> 0:41:47.160
<v Speaker 1>quote unquote the supervoter. I have always said that if

0:41:47.200 --> 0:41:49.920
<v Speaker 1>you ignore certain demographic for too long, they're gonna show out.

0:41:50.000 --> 0:41:52.319
<v Speaker 1>Let's just look at any relationship. You don't take care

0:41:52.320 --> 0:41:54.839
<v Speaker 1>of your woman, you never take her out, you never

0:41:54.920 --> 0:41:58.920
<v Speaker 1>spend money on her, your sexist trash. Well, eventually, at

0:41:59.000 --> 0:42:00.960
<v Speaker 1>some point, what is she going to do? Either leave

0:42:01.040 --> 0:42:03.800
<v Speaker 1>you or she's gonna step out. That is the reality

0:42:03.880 --> 0:42:06.759
<v Speaker 1>of all relationships. So when you look at a demographic

0:42:06.840 --> 0:42:09.719
<v Speaker 1>that has been ignored year over year over year over

0:42:09.880 --> 0:42:11.960
<v Speaker 1>year over year, and some of these rappers, I'm just

0:42:12.000 --> 0:42:13.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna keep it all the way, really straight shot, with

0:42:13.719 --> 0:42:16.160
<v Speaker 1>no chaser. These candidates have said they were going to

0:42:16.239 --> 0:42:18.560
<v Speaker 1>call them and make a connection and they didn't. Now,

0:42:18.600 --> 0:42:20.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna throw out folks names because it's their

0:42:20.719 --> 0:42:23.839
<v Speaker 1>business to tell. But when you do that, people start

0:42:23.840 --> 0:42:26.319
<v Speaker 1>a feeling some type of way. You can't just keep

0:42:26.400 --> 0:42:30.000
<v Speaker 1>ignoring a certain demographic and say, oh, well, anybody listening

0:42:30.040 --> 0:42:32.319
<v Speaker 1>a little Wayne, anybody listening to an Ice que Well,

0:42:32.360 --> 0:42:34.960
<v Speaker 1>why is it that they've been trending for days? Somebody

0:42:35.040 --> 0:42:38.400
<v Speaker 1>listening to somebody? You can't ignore somebody that has a

0:42:38.520 --> 0:42:41.520
<v Speaker 1>reach to touch millions of people and to make people

0:42:41.600 --> 0:42:44.320
<v Speaker 1>react like that. What Al Sharpton is saying that this

0:42:44.480 --> 0:42:47.399
<v Speaker 1>is no disrespect. I'm just keeping it like, keeping it real,

0:42:47.800 --> 0:42:50.600
<v Speaker 1>Al Sharpton, what he's saying, it's not trending. What a

0:42:50.640 --> 0:42:53.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of these commentators are saying, are not trending. What

0:42:53.200 --> 0:42:56.960
<v Speaker 1>Jesse Jackson said, it's not trending. With the NAACP president said,

0:42:56.960 --> 0:42:59.080
<v Speaker 1>it's not trending. So why is it that que and

0:43:00.600 --> 0:43:02.400
<v Speaker 1>and fifty cent? Why were they able to make a

0:43:02.480 --> 0:43:05.799
<v Speaker 1>trend that says something about they get a reaction from

0:43:05.920 --> 0:43:09.040
<v Speaker 1>influence and so when you ignore that demographic, it's not

0:43:09.120 --> 0:43:11.319
<v Speaker 1>about Wayne and fifty cent. And I know people gonna say, oh,

0:43:11.320 --> 0:43:14.040
<v Speaker 1>Wayne just doing it for himself Okay, maybe, so put

0:43:14.120 --> 0:43:16.480
<v Speaker 1>your thinking cap on. This is outside of Wayne and

0:43:16.640 --> 0:43:20.320
<v Speaker 1>fifty cents. I'm talking about a certain sector of people

0:43:20.360 --> 0:43:23.320
<v Speaker 1>that have been looked down upon by operatives. And I

0:43:23.480 --> 0:43:25.520
<v Speaker 1>know this based on what I know, not what I heard.

0:43:25.800 --> 0:43:27.839
<v Speaker 1>And so now you have these guys coming out saying,

0:43:28.040 --> 0:43:29.800
<v Speaker 1>you know what, we do have influence, we do have

0:43:29.880 --> 0:43:31.680
<v Speaker 1>a voice, we do have something to say, even if

0:43:31.719 --> 0:43:33.480
<v Speaker 1>it's just trolling, because I believe fifty cent was just

0:43:33.520 --> 0:43:36.120
<v Speaker 1>straight up trolling, but it says a lot about you

0:43:36.239 --> 0:43:38.279
<v Speaker 1>have to bring these brothers under the foe. You can't

0:43:38.320 --> 0:43:41.920
<v Speaker 1>keep ignoring them over and over and just dismiss them as, oh, well,

0:43:42.080 --> 0:43:43.920
<v Speaker 1>they don't know what they're talking about any way, Nobody

0:43:43.960 --> 0:43:45.960
<v Speaker 1>listening to them, Wayne, abody to listening to your ass either,

0:43:46.040 --> 0:43:47.920
<v Speaker 1>because if that was the case, we wouldn't keep asking

0:43:47.920 --> 0:43:50.480
<v Speaker 1>people to vote year over year over year. Why is

0:43:50.520 --> 0:43:52.520
<v Speaker 1>it that we are still begging people to vote like

0:43:52.640 --> 0:43:55.359
<v Speaker 1>we have for the last sixty seventy plus years. At

0:43:55.480 --> 0:43:59.080
<v Speaker 1>some point, you're the common denominator man. At some point,

0:43:59.120 --> 0:44:01.360
<v Speaker 1>as you it can't keep being a voter. We got

0:44:01.480 --> 0:44:03.560
<v Speaker 1>to look at you. So I don't necessarily agree with

0:44:03.600 --> 0:44:06.080
<v Speaker 1>the timing, you know, of all the what they what

0:44:06.200 --> 0:44:08.759
<v Speaker 1>they did, But I think it was necessary for us

0:44:08.800 --> 0:44:11.000
<v Speaker 1>to have that conversation to talk about how do we

0:44:11.120 --> 0:44:13.440
<v Speaker 1>move forward? Because que Bob asily ain't sitting down, He's

0:44:13.480 --> 0:44:15.680
<v Speaker 1>not backing down for nobody. But what I will say

0:44:15.800 --> 0:44:19.120
<v Speaker 1>this in Q's defense, he'd been talking about a the

0:44:19.239 --> 0:44:22.240
<v Speaker 1>police and has been speaking for our community for thirty

0:44:22.320 --> 0:44:25.640
<v Speaker 1>plus years when those were standing back and standing by,

0:44:26.520 --> 0:44:28.960
<v Speaker 1>the least you could have did was allowed Q to

0:44:29.480 --> 0:44:32.320
<v Speaker 1>affirm his position and not just goal based on what

0:44:32.480 --> 0:44:35.040
<v Speaker 1>one tweet said and completely try to cancel that brother

0:44:35.360 --> 0:44:38.120
<v Speaker 1>as if he hasn't done anything for our community, as

0:44:38.160 --> 0:44:40.640
<v Speaker 1>if he hasn't spoke up for our community at all.

0:44:41.120 --> 0:44:43.560
<v Speaker 1>So for that alone, I believe Q should at least

0:44:43.560 --> 0:44:45.600
<v Speaker 1>have an opportunity's playing his position and if you don't

0:44:45.600 --> 0:44:47.600
<v Speaker 1>agree with his position, keep you don't keep it moving.

0:44:48.160 --> 0:44:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm also had to say this about a Little Wayne,

0:44:50.680 --> 0:44:53.120
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know if he'll say this. He already

0:44:53.120 --> 0:44:56.040
<v Speaker 1>said he didn't mind saying it publicly because the family,

0:44:56.160 --> 0:44:59.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, Jacob Blake's family talked about how Little Wayne

0:44:59.120 --> 0:45:01.719
<v Speaker 1>called Jacob Blake, talked about how they gifted how Little

0:45:01.719 --> 0:45:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Wayne gifted him. You know, with something that he really

0:45:04.200 --> 0:45:06.439
<v Speaker 1>really needed. This is the kind of stuff that goes

0:45:06.480 --> 0:45:09.160
<v Speaker 1>on behind the scenes that people are not aware about it.

0:45:09.160 --> 0:45:11.440
<v Speaker 1>And I will say this, a lot of these politicians

0:45:11.640 --> 0:45:14.000
<v Speaker 1>haven't done a damn thing for these victims. They quick

0:45:14.040 --> 0:45:15.719
<v Speaker 1>to put the pictures out there, they quick to say

0:45:15.920 --> 0:45:17.480
<v Speaker 1>what they gonna do, but when it comes down to

0:45:17.560 --> 0:45:20.279
<v Speaker 1>those receipts, you just can't ignore these brothers and what

0:45:20.400 --> 0:45:22.040
<v Speaker 1>they have tried to do. And again, this is not

0:45:22.080 --> 0:45:24.960
<v Speaker 1>an endorsement a little Wayne fifty cent or ice cube.

0:45:24.960 --> 0:45:28.080
<v Speaker 1>So keep y'all ass out the comments. I'm speaking on

0:45:28.239 --> 0:45:30.920
<v Speaker 1>the you know, the totality of it all and what

0:45:31.040 --> 0:45:33.480
<v Speaker 1>they represent. Do you think that sam hip hop artists

0:45:33.600 --> 0:45:37.520
<v Speaker 1>might have like that are supporting Biden and Kamala Harris.

0:45:37.719 --> 0:45:39.520
<v Speaker 1>Do you think that perhaps like they don't get as

0:45:39.600 --> 0:45:43.879
<v Speaker 1>much attention because the contraions probably do. Like the people

0:45:43.920 --> 0:45:46.160
<v Speaker 1>that are hip hop artists that are endorsing Trump, we

0:45:46.280 --> 0:45:48.400
<v Speaker 1>get outraged about that, but the people who are supporting

0:45:48.520 --> 0:45:51.600
<v Speaker 1>Biden Harris just we just felt like, Okay, that's what

0:45:51.719 --> 0:45:53.560
<v Speaker 1>it is. Because there aren't artists who are doing that

0:45:54.000 --> 0:45:56.200
<v Speaker 1>and are public about it, but we're not really acknowledging

0:45:56.280 --> 0:45:58.640
<v Speaker 1>that so much. Well, because it's the norm you know,

0:45:58.760 --> 0:46:01.680
<v Speaker 1>it's normally the Democrat. They always has the entertainment's line up.

0:46:01.760 --> 0:46:03.680
<v Speaker 1>What I say is this is when I hear people say, oh,

0:46:03.719 --> 0:46:05.960
<v Speaker 1>they're paying fifty sent, they're paying little Wayne, Well why

0:46:05.960 --> 0:46:08.160
<v Speaker 1>ain't nobody ever asks if they're paying those other artists?

0:46:08.200 --> 0:46:10.480
<v Speaker 1>They're not getting paid? And I say that, Angela, I

0:46:10.520 --> 0:46:12.439
<v Speaker 1>don't want to be clear. I'm not saying they get paid,

0:46:12.640 --> 0:46:14.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm saying that when we have that conversation,

0:46:15.120 --> 0:46:17.600
<v Speaker 1>let's have it on both sides. When you have conversations

0:46:17.600 --> 0:46:20.120
<v Speaker 1>about somebody getting paid, that's broke it type, that's broke

0:46:20.239 --> 0:46:22.560
<v Speaker 1>the conversation. To me, I will tell you me, as

0:46:22.600 --> 0:46:26.799
<v Speaker 1>a single mom, have been offered opportunities and I don't

0:46:26.840 --> 0:46:29.480
<v Speaker 1>have Wayne's money and fifty cents money and none of

0:46:29.520 --> 0:46:33.600
<v Speaker 1>their influence, and I didn't take those opportunities. So, yes,

0:46:33.719 --> 0:46:35.880
<v Speaker 1>opportunities are presented to you. But believe it or not,

0:46:36.040 --> 0:46:38.840
<v Speaker 1>some people actually stand on their principles instead of posing

0:46:38.880 --> 0:46:40.920
<v Speaker 1>on a fifty cent got paid. Focus on some of

0:46:41.000 --> 0:46:44.319
<v Speaker 1>these donors who are donating to these campaigns because they're

0:46:44.360 --> 0:46:47.160
<v Speaker 1>the ones that are getting paid and actually owe somebody

0:46:47.239 --> 0:46:49.800
<v Speaker 1>for that money. So they don't get the attention I

0:46:49.880 --> 0:46:51.759
<v Speaker 1>guess because it's just the dorm. But a lot of

0:46:51.800 --> 0:46:54.399
<v Speaker 1>them do, and a lot of them get influence behind

0:46:54.440 --> 0:46:57.000
<v Speaker 1>the jay Z got plenty of attention when he supported

0:46:58.040 --> 0:47:00.920
<v Speaker 1>Hillary Clinton and Obama and all of that. He put

0:47:00.960 --> 0:47:03.080
<v Speaker 1>it in his rap songs. He was able to take

0:47:03.120 --> 0:47:06.360
<v Speaker 1>it to another level of influence from from a businessman standpoint.

0:47:06.520 --> 0:47:08.480
<v Speaker 1>But where is Jay Z right now? I mean, is

0:47:08.480 --> 0:47:11.440
<v Speaker 1>anybody asking that? Those are questions that you know, people

0:47:11.520 --> 0:47:13.719
<v Speaker 1>I would like to know why is he not out,

0:47:13.800 --> 0:47:16.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, supporting Joe Biden. But I think it really

0:47:16.520 --> 0:47:18.160
<v Speaker 1>comes down to it's not even about a hip hop

0:47:18.280 --> 0:47:20.279
<v Speaker 1>artist or even a commentator to things. They know every

0:47:20.320 --> 0:47:22.960
<v Speaker 1>damn thing. People have to make their own mind up.

0:47:23.000 --> 0:47:24.720
<v Speaker 1>That's why I keep saying it belongs to the streets.

0:47:24.920 --> 0:47:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Y'all gonna do what y'all want to do at this point,

0:47:26.960 --> 0:47:28.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, we just have to move forward on how

0:47:28.560 --> 0:47:30.319
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna you know, get this thing, tighten this up.

0:47:30.360 --> 0:47:33.160
<v Speaker 1>After the election. Yeah, I'm all for black people thinking

0:47:33.239 --> 0:47:35.520
<v Speaker 1>freely about their politics, even if I don't agree with

0:47:35.680 --> 0:47:37.759
<v Speaker 1>their politics, because I just feel like we've been we've

0:47:37.800 --> 0:47:40.520
<v Speaker 1>been too predictable for too long, So I like to

0:47:40.640 --> 0:47:42.040
<v Speaker 1>shake up, you know what I mean. I think that's

0:47:42.080 --> 0:47:44.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna benefit us in the long run. And you know,

0:47:44.239 --> 0:47:47.160
<v Speaker 1>to the whole cube thing, we never give black people

0:47:47.239 --> 0:47:49.680
<v Speaker 1>the same grace we give white folks. They'll cancel Light's

0:47:49.719 --> 0:47:52.279
<v Speaker 1>cube in two seconds. But tell you, how dare you

0:47:52.400 --> 0:47:55.319
<v Speaker 1>speak on Joe Biden's record? Why why do you think

0:47:55.360 --> 0:47:59.200
<v Speaker 1>people think you can't critique Joe Biden and still support

0:47:59.280 --> 0:48:02.120
<v Speaker 1>that that ticket. I think we have just got to

0:48:02.239 --> 0:48:05.440
<v Speaker 1>a point where logic has went out the window. It

0:48:05.680 --> 0:48:07.960
<v Speaker 1>is all about tribalism. You know. I talk a lot

0:48:08.040 --> 0:48:10.920
<v Speaker 1>about bloods and cribs, and I know a lot of

0:48:10.960 --> 0:48:13.680
<v Speaker 1>people are in different regions don't understand that. And it

0:48:13.800 --> 0:48:17.239
<v Speaker 1>really reminds me of that tribal you know. I feel

0:48:17.280 --> 0:48:19.560
<v Speaker 1>like on Instagram people are coming up to me saying,

0:48:19.600 --> 0:48:22.239
<v Speaker 1>break yourself. We'll set you claim. You know. It's it's

0:48:22.719 --> 0:48:27.239
<v Speaker 1>like there's a mindset that nothing can be questioned. You know,

0:48:27.440 --> 0:48:30.400
<v Speaker 1>if both things can be true, I can still support

0:48:30.520 --> 0:48:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and still critique the crime bill.

0:48:34.440 --> 0:48:38.400
<v Speaker 1>We are just in a place where all thought is

0:48:38.440 --> 0:48:41.200
<v Speaker 1>out the window, all logic is out the window. But

0:48:41.400 --> 0:48:45.120
<v Speaker 1>We've just gotten to a place of just ridiculousness. Just

0:48:45.200 --> 0:48:46.680
<v Speaker 1>to be quite honest with you, that's why I'm so

0:48:46.719 --> 0:48:48.279
<v Speaker 1>ready to get that over with so we can really have,

0:48:48.719 --> 0:48:52.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, full conversations. And it's it's it's a mental thing,

0:48:52.120 --> 0:48:54.279
<v Speaker 1>Charlotte Mane. For real, a lot of people just really

0:48:54.320 --> 0:48:55.839
<v Speaker 1>want to put their head in the sand and get

0:48:55.880 --> 0:48:58.360
<v Speaker 1>this over with because they don't want to have to

0:48:58.560 --> 0:49:02.359
<v Speaker 1>deal with the real problem, the real route. We can

0:49:02.440 --> 0:49:05.120
<v Speaker 1>still be unified and have our own armies that are

0:49:05.200 --> 0:49:09.680
<v Speaker 1>pushing different agendas, and whoever pushes the agenda first and

0:49:09.800 --> 0:49:12.000
<v Speaker 1>gets their first is the winner. As long as it

0:49:12.160 --> 0:49:14.560
<v Speaker 1>is collectively for black people. I don't care what side

0:49:14.600 --> 0:49:17.280
<v Speaker 1>that you're wrong. As long as it's about collectively pushing

0:49:17.320 --> 0:49:20.240
<v Speaker 1>the line for black people, we all win. Let's stop

0:49:20.360 --> 0:49:22.319
<v Speaker 1>arguing about we all need to be on the same page.

0:49:22.320 --> 0:49:24.719
<v Speaker 1>I think that's just a waste of time that we'll

0:49:24.760 --> 0:49:26.920
<v Speaker 1>keeping lock. We got more with Teslain Figaro when we

0:49:27.000 --> 0:49:29.239
<v Speaker 1>come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, good morning.

0:49:29.280 --> 0:49:33.120
<v Speaker 1>Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne the guy we

0:49:33.239 --> 0:49:35.400
<v Speaker 1>are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Teslain

0:49:35.480 --> 0:49:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Figuro yee. One thing we see with Donald Trump right

0:49:38.080 --> 0:49:40.640
<v Speaker 1>now though, and I will say this, what makes him

0:49:40.719 --> 0:49:43.799
<v Speaker 1>even more dangerous though, is that he can't accept any

0:49:43.840 --> 0:49:47.040
<v Speaker 1>criticism or anybody telling him, hey, you know that's wrong.

0:49:47.040 --> 0:49:48.719
<v Speaker 1>You shouldn't have done that like that. And even what

0:49:48.840 --> 0:49:50.960
<v Speaker 1>we just saw recently with the Trump trains and how

0:49:51.000 --> 0:49:54.840
<v Speaker 1>they surrounded the campaign bus for Biden and Harris and

0:49:54.920 --> 0:49:57.360
<v Speaker 1>tried to run them off the road, and he encourages

0:49:57.480 --> 0:50:00.440
<v Speaker 1>that type of behavior. So what do you think it's

0:50:00.440 --> 0:50:02.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna happen? Because people are looking at this like after

0:50:02.840 --> 0:50:06.520
<v Speaker 1>election date, there's gonna be all kinds of riots and violence.

0:50:06.600 --> 0:50:11.239
<v Speaker 1>Do you think that is potentially a strong possibility that

0:50:11.320 --> 0:50:14.279
<v Speaker 1>that will happen? Sure, I mean anything is a possibility.

0:50:14.320 --> 0:50:16.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that, to be honest with you. We

0:50:16.480 --> 0:50:18.920
<v Speaker 1>had a show on my show talking about that. I

0:50:19.000 --> 0:50:20.680
<v Speaker 1>don't think if it's riots, I think it will be

0:50:20.760 --> 0:50:22.560
<v Speaker 1>coming from the right. To be honest with you, I

0:50:22.640 --> 0:50:25.080
<v Speaker 1>think it will be something to make it appear as

0:50:25.120 --> 0:50:26.560
<v Speaker 1>if the left is doing it. Because I'm gonna be

0:50:26.560 --> 0:50:28.520
<v Speaker 1>honest with you, most people ain't just about their life.

0:50:28.920 --> 0:50:30.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean they're just not you know. They talk that

0:50:31.280 --> 0:50:34.520
<v Speaker 1>on Instagram and Twitter, and you know they say, oh,

0:50:34.560 --> 0:50:36.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be riddy, I'm gonna eat this isn't that.

0:50:36.680 --> 0:50:38.319
<v Speaker 1>But these are the same people that won't even stand

0:50:38.400 --> 0:50:40.839
<v Speaker 1>up to the HR supervisor, you know, in demand along

0:50:40.920 --> 0:50:42.920
<v Speaker 1>the break, let's just keep you one hundred. It's a

0:50:42.960 --> 0:50:45.520
<v Speaker 1>lot to say behind the scenes, but when it really

0:50:45.560 --> 0:50:48.320
<v Speaker 1>come down to it, people ain't about that life. If

0:50:48.360 --> 0:50:50.560
<v Speaker 1>Trump supporters want to follow somebody, go follow them in

0:50:50.560 --> 0:50:52.239
<v Speaker 1>the hood. Like that other video we saw when they

0:50:52.280 --> 0:50:54.080
<v Speaker 1>went to the hood and for word and try it,

0:50:54.160 --> 0:50:56.440
<v Speaker 1>they got ran out the hood. I think people know

0:50:56.680 --> 0:50:59.719
<v Speaker 1>who they can attimidate and who they cannot. And I

0:50:59.800 --> 0:51:03.000
<v Speaker 1>think that's always been in the mindset of any any warrior.

0:51:03.080 --> 0:51:05.279
<v Speaker 1>Any warrior knows who they can play with and who

0:51:05.320 --> 0:51:08.080
<v Speaker 1>they can't. So sure, you know, there might be unrests

0:51:08.719 --> 0:51:10.960
<v Speaker 1>just to play into the narrative. I don't think that

0:51:11.040 --> 0:51:13.360
<v Speaker 1>it would be the leftist stars that. I really don't

0:51:13.560 --> 0:51:15.440
<v Speaker 1>And I think for the most part this idea that

0:51:15.520 --> 0:51:18.080
<v Speaker 1>oh everybody in the country just about to go crazy

0:51:18.080 --> 0:51:22.000
<v Speaker 1>and it's about to be some civil war. I see

0:51:22.040 --> 0:51:24.160
<v Speaker 1>that shirt a lot that says I'm not my ancestors,

0:51:24.239 --> 0:51:27.200
<v Speaker 1>and I take offensive that a lot too, because I

0:51:27.360 --> 0:51:29.560
<v Speaker 1>know the idea of saying, you know, I'm not gonna

0:51:29.600 --> 0:51:32.080
<v Speaker 1>play that, I'm this and that, But what the ancestors

0:51:32.160 --> 0:51:34.800
<v Speaker 1>went through, we ain't built like that. We're not built

0:51:34.840 --> 0:51:36.759
<v Speaker 1>to you know what I'm saying, Like, let's just keep

0:51:36.800 --> 0:51:38.879
<v Speaker 1>it real. You're not built to jump off no ship.

0:51:39.120 --> 0:51:41.520
<v Speaker 1>You're not built there were there were enslave folks that

0:51:41.640 --> 0:51:45.200
<v Speaker 1>fought and had rebellion. You're not built like that. Most

0:51:45.200 --> 0:51:47.600
<v Speaker 1>of y'all gonna take y'all ants to work at eight

0:51:47.640 --> 0:51:51.600
<v Speaker 1>o'clock and be typing on your on your phone on Instagram.

0:51:52.200 --> 0:51:54.120
<v Speaker 1>When we tell people to walk off their job, but

0:51:54.239 --> 0:51:55.960
<v Speaker 1>just one day, they don't do it. We can't even

0:51:56.000 --> 0:51:58.480
<v Speaker 1>get folks to boycott for longer than twenty four hours.

0:51:58.920 --> 0:52:01.520
<v Speaker 1>So the deal that it's going to be this major,

0:52:01.760 --> 0:52:04.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, across the country, civil war type thing, I

0:52:04.320 --> 0:52:06.320
<v Speaker 1>just don't think we're built like that. Will there be

0:52:06.440 --> 0:52:09.239
<v Speaker 1>could there be violence, absolutely, But most folks gonna be

0:52:09.320 --> 0:52:11.400
<v Speaker 1>on their job, Angela. I mean, let's just keep it real.

0:52:11.440 --> 0:52:12.920
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna be on their job because they gotta pay

0:52:12.920 --> 0:52:16.439
<v Speaker 1>their bills. On fifteen. Yeah, you know, applies Applies said

0:52:16.480 --> 0:52:19.960
<v Speaker 1>something interesting. He said that, and I'm paraphrasing Head that

0:52:20.040 --> 0:52:23.000
<v Speaker 1>they will not start taking black people serious until we

0:52:23.120 --> 0:52:26.120
<v Speaker 1>go out there and start exercising our vote the right way.

0:52:26.360 --> 0:52:28.279
<v Speaker 1>You know, I don't know how I feel about that,

0:52:28.400 --> 0:52:31.680
<v Speaker 1>only because black people have been blindly supporting THEMS forever.

0:52:31.840 --> 0:52:33.719
<v Speaker 1>So so what do you think it will take for

0:52:33.840 --> 0:52:35.759
<v Speaker 1>them to really start taking us serious when it comes

0:52:35.760 --> 0:52:39.840
<v Speaker 1>to being a voting voting block. You know, this is

0:52:39.880 --> 0:52:42.320
<v Speaker 1>a question that I've really been struggling with. You know.

0:52:42.560 --> 0:52:45.240
<v Speaker 1>The thing that happened with Trump is them really having

0:52:45.320 --> 0:52:47.480
<v Speaker 1>to pay attention like right now. You know, we've been

0:52:47.520 --> 0:52:50.239
<v Speaker 1>telling them about black men and the importance of black men,

0:52:50.320 --> 0:52:52.200
<v Speaker 1>black men, black men, black men, and now at the

0:52:52.280 --> 0:52:54.560
<v Speaker 1>eleventh down, oh hey what about black men? You know,

0:52:54.880 --> 0:52:58.280
<v Speaker 1>but I was talking about that way before this selection.

0:52:59.000 --> 0:53:01.239
<v Speaker 1>And I think each and every time, well I know,

0:53:01.480 --> 0:53:04.720
<v Speaker 1>each and every time we get close to moving forward,

0:53:05.040 --> 0:53:08.279
<v Speaker 1>and let's say Biden wins, there is a certain people

0:53:08.280 --> 0:53:09.839
<v Speaker 1>don't have to like this and that this is again

0:53:09.920 --> 0:53:12.799
<v Speaker 1>not an endorsement of Trump, these are just facts when

0:53:13.160 --> 0:53:16.880
<v Speaker 1>Biden wins. If he wins, there's a certain sector in

0:53:16.960 --> 0:53:22.080
<v Speaker 1>the operative section of politics that feels, okay, no matter what,

0:53:22.520 --> 0:53:25.799
<v Speaker 1>we'll always still win. They don't do the smart thing

0:53:25.880 --> 0:53:29.640
<v Speaker 1>and say, hey, we came close and I can't afford

0:53:29.760 --> 0:53:32.759
<v Speaker 1>to get this close again. Going back to the relationship analogy,

0:53:33.080 --> 0:53:35.320
<v Speaker 1>if I take you back, it doesn't mean that you

0:53:35.400 --> 0:53:37.800
<v Speaker 1>get comfortable. It means you really supposed to be on

0:53:37.880 --> 0:53:41.560
<v Speaker 1>top of your game. So I feel until there's a

0:53:41.680 --> 0:53:45.759
<v Speaker 1>big loss, loss enough for people to really hurt, for

0:53:45.880 --> 0:53:48.759
<v Speaker 1>the middle class to really hurt, like the lower and

0:53:49.000 --> 0:53:52.000
<v Speaker 1>lower class and the poor, I don't know if we'll

0:53:52.120 --> 0:53:55.360
<v Speaker 1>ever you know, get to that place until that happens.

0:53:55.800 --> 0:54:00.319
<v Speaker 1>America and humans are very self involved, their self center,

0:54:00.520 --> 0:54:02.200
<v Speaker 1>just like they say, oh Wayne is doing it because

0:54:02.200 --> 0:54:05.120
<v Speaker 1>he's self center, where you're self center to most people,

0:54:05.160 --> 0:54:09.080
<v Speaker 1>what do we say, self preservation is first. So until

0:54:09.280 --> 0:54:11.720
<v Speaker 1>we get out of that space and start thinking about

0:54:12.320 --> 0:54:15.239
<v Speaker 1>others and what others may possibly be going through and

0:54:15.400 --> 0:54:17.480
<v Speaker 1>not even just thinking about empathies, not enough. You have

0:54:17.600 --> 0:54:20.160
<v Speaker 1>to hurt sometimes, like something has to hurt you enough

0:54:20.400 --> 0:54:22.439
<v Speaker 1>to make you say I'll stand for the crime bill

0:54:22.480 --> 0:54:25.560
<v Speaker 1>because of people that I know that did time, not

0:54:25.719 --> 0:54:29.000
<v Speaker 1>because I watched when they see us great movie. But

0:54:29.160 --> 0:54:32.200
<v Speaker 1>until you writing somebody in solitary confinement, till you putting

0:54:32.200 --> 0:54:34.600
<v Speaker 1>money on somebody's book till you see how it mentally

0:54:34.719 --> 0:54:37.399
<v Speaker 1>damages them after doing that time in prison. And I'm

0:54:37.400 --> 0:54:39.680
<v Speaker 1>talking about first time non violent offenders. I'm not talking

0:54:39.719 --> 0:54:42.120
<v Speaker 1>about everything with the crime bill. I'm not talk about violence.

0:54:42.120 --> 0:54:44.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm not talking about those Ada drugs. I'm specifically talking

0:54:44.560 --> 0:54:47.680
<v Speaker 1>about first time non violent offenders. Until it hurts you,

0:54:47.880 --> 0:54:50.640
<v Speaker 1>until you own the phone in tears. Like I was

0:54:50.920 --> 0:54:54.440
<v Speaker 1>last night with the same person, you see things differently.

0:54:54.880 --> 0:54:56.440
<v Speaker 1>I got one more question for you. You know, we

0:54:56.520 --> 0:54:58.640
<v Speaker 1>had Jim clyburn on and he said, in the first

0:54:58.719 --> 0:55:02.560
<v Speaker 1>hundred hours Biden being in office, first hundred hours, he

0:55:02.680 --> 0:55:04.800
<v Speaker 1>wants them to form a committee to see the impact

0:55:04.880 --> 0:55:07.359
<v Speaker 1>of the eighty six mandatory minimum sending thing as well

0:55:07.400 --> 0:55:09.200
<v Speaker 1>as the ninety four crime Bill, and once we know

0:55:09.239 --> 0:55:11.279
<v Speaker 1>what the damage is, then Biden can atone for it.

0:55:11.760 --> 0:55:14.480
<v Speaker 1>What would you like to see this administration do if

0:55:14.520 --> 0:55:16.560
<v Speaker 1>they get in Biden, Harris, what would you like to

0:55:16.560 --> 0:55:19.160
<v Speaker 1>see them doing the first hundred days? I would absolutely

0:55:19.239 --> 0:55:21.440
<v Speaker 1>like to see that. I wish Jim Claiborne would have

0:55:21.440 --> 0:55:23.320
<v Speaker 1>said that when he was endorsing him instead of just

0:55:23.480 --> 0:55:25.520
<v Speaker 1>we know Joe and Joe know us. See, that's the

0:55:25.640 --> 0:55:27.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of thing that in politics that really gets that

0:55:28.040 --> 0:55:31.040
<v Speaker 1>bothers me, Charlotta Magne's because they hold these nuggets that

0:55:31.080 --> 0:55:33.600
<v Speaker 1>I feel would be so critical, that would have made

0:55:33.640 --> 0:55:35.479
<v Speaker 1>a difference so that we wouldn't have had to argue

0:55:35.560 --> 0:55:38.440
<v Speaker 1>this last year about Joe Biden had that been said

0:55:38.600 --> 0:55:40.560
<v Speaker 1>in the beginning. But we play these for this is

0:55:40.640 --> 0:55:42.000
<v Speaker 1>no shade on him. I'm just giving you how I

0:55:42.120 --> 0:55:44.560
<v Speaker 1>feel we play these political games and say, well, let's

0:55:44.600 --> 0:55:45.960
<v Speaker 1>not say that right now, let's just get him in

0:55:46.040 --> 0:55:48.120
<v Speaker 1>and then let's say it later. But see what happens

0:55:48.239 --> 0:55:51.200
<v Speaker 1>is you've had us arguing like hell over the crime

0:55:51.280 --> 0:55:54.120
<v Speaker 1>bill when that should have been said out the gate

0:55:54.440 --> 0:55:56.920
<v Speaker 1>so that it wouldn't be so hard. Now that's right,

0:55:57.239 --> 0:55:59.399
<v Speaker 1>So of course I want to see that. Of course

0:55:59.400 --> 0:56:03.080
<v Speaker 1>I want to see immediate accountability, not this game of

0:56:03.400 --> 0:56:05.399
<v Speaker 1>whatever it is. I want to see economics. I want

0:56:05.400 --> 0:56:07.600
<v Speaker 1>to see a lot of Mike Bloomberg's policies that he pushed.

0:56:07.719 --> 0:56:09.840
<v Speaker 1>What I was about adopting some of his policies. He

0:56:09.920 --> 0:56:12.440
<v Speaker 1>talked about black businesses. They never talk about black business

0:56:12.719 --> 0:56:15.799
<v Speaker 1>at all, Like it's almost like they just we don't

0:56:15.840 --> 0:56:18.560
<v Speaker 1>even exist, you know. I who want to see that happen.

0:56:18.840 --> 0:56:21.200
<v Speaker 1>I want to see healthcare reform. I also want to

0:56:21.200 --> 0:56:25.880
<v Speaker 1>see more opportunities on the state and local level. There's

0:56:25.880 --> 0:56:28.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot of I really want to see their message

0:56:28.160 --> 0:56:30.839
<v Speaker 1>in just change. When you talk about and I'll say

0:56:30.880 --> 0:56:33.880
<v Speaker 1>this and shut up, but when you talk about state level,

0:56:34.400 --> 0:56:40.400
<v Speaker 1>county medicare basically like a Medicare for all, Harris County

0:56:40.520 --> 0:56:45.520
<v Speaker 1>has a county medical plan. I broke my ankle last year,

0:56:45.640 --> 0:56:48.479
<v Speaker 1>this time one day in the hospital without even getting

0:56:48.520 --> 0:56:51.359
<v Speaker 1>my ankle fixed. I had a twenty seven thousand dollar bill,

0:56:51.640 --> 0:56:53.960
<v Speaker 1>damn for one day and I got the receipt to

0:56:54.000 --> 0:56:56.359
<v Speaker 1>prove and that wasn't even fixing the ankle. Like, that's

0:56:56.440 --> 0:56:58.640
<v Speaker 1>really like going on in people's life. Why don't they

0:56:58.719 --> 0:57:01.440
<v Speaker 1>talk about that. Why don't you talk about how those

0:57:01.520 --> 0:57:05.200
<v Speaker 1>types of policies. That's actually when you talk about medicare

0:57:05.280 --> 0:57:08.160
<v Speaker 1>for all. When when we start talking about that, then

0:57:08.200 --> 0:57:10.719
<v Speaker 1>it makes sense to people. That's what this Democrat Party

0:57:10.760 --> 0:57:12.719
<v Speaker 1>needs to do. From from Jim cleinber on our dad.

0:57:12.719 --> 0:57:14.479
<v Speaker 1>And it's not even about Biden. It's about these leaders

0:57:14.480 --> 0:57:16.920
<v Speaker 1>who have been in office thirty forty fifty years. They

0:57:17.000 --> 0:57:18.840
<v Speaker 1>know the right thing to do. They just need to

0:57:18.880 --> 0:57:22.400
<v Speaker 1>start doing it word. Her name is Teslin. She's the

0:57:22.480 --> 0:57:24.800
<v Speaker 1>host of this Grace Shot No Chase of podcasts on

0:57:24.960 --> 0:57:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Black Effect. I always a pleasant task. I hope, I

0:57:31.800 --> 0:57:35.120
<v Speaker 1>hope ya reckoning and celebrating in the next week. Yes man,

0:57:35.160 --> 0:57:37.400
<v Speaker 1>we'll have some of that tequilo on your back. I

0:57:37.520 --> 0:57:42.440
<v Speaker 1>got drinks over so they tell them where to find

0:57:42.480 --> 0:57:43.720
<v Speaker 1>you so that they can argue with you if they

0:57:43.760 --> 0:57:47.080
<v Speaker 1>want to. Yes, please, Teslin Figuo on all Things t

0:57:47.280 --> 0:57:49.440
<v Speaker 1>e Z L y n F I G A R

0:57:49.600 --> 0:57:53.640
<v Speaker 1>O Instagram, Twitter, and get on Twitter, y'all. We gotta

0:57:53.680 --> 0:57:56.640
<v Speaker 1>start pushing people to Twitter because that's where information is.

0:57:56.840 --> 0:57:59.720
<v Speaker 1>That's what politicians pay to pay attention to. They don't

0:57:59.760 --> 0:58:02.240
<v Speaker 1>pay attention to Instagram. Was funny because when Wayne put

0:58:02.280 --> 0:58:04.280
<v Speaker 1>out the tweet saying he supported Trump, some out on

0:58:04.320 --> 0:58:06.040
<v Speaker 1>my Instagram said, oh, he didn't say it on Instagram.

0:58:06.280 --> 0:58:08.520
<v Speaker 1>He said it on Twitter. Because Twitter is where it matters.

0:58:08.800 --> 0:58:11.080
<v Speaker 1>I g is anti information. It doesn't allow you to

0:58:11.120 --> 0:58:14.400
<v Speaker 1>share links, only videos and pictures. It's a reason for that.

0:58:14.840 --> 0:58:17.360
<v Speaker 1>Get on Twitter, get involved in Twitter, and let's start

0:58:17.480 --> 0:58:32.720
<v Speaker 1>having this conversation. Thank you so much. Listen up. Well.

0:58:32.880 --> 0:58:36.200
<v Speaker 1>Yesterday on the Talk Eve made an announcement and said

0:58:36.240 --> 0:58:39.600
<v Speaker 1>that she is leaving. It's been a crazy year, obviously

0:58:39.720 --> 0:58:42.000
<v Speaker 1>for all of us, and I've been so grateful that

0:58:42.080 --> 0:58:45.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm able to stay here in London and do the show.

0:58:45.640 --> 0:58:49.480
<v Speaker 1>But I can't see for me the foreseeable future of

0:58:49.800 --> 0:58:54.800
<v Speaker 1>traveling back at the moment, and have decided that at

0:58:54.840 --> 0:58:57.360
<v Speaker 1>the end of December, this will probably be my last

0:58:57.440 --> 0:59:01.040
<v Speaker 1>time on the show in this capacity as a host.

0:59:02.840 --> 0:59:05.320
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna miss her. I get it, though, she you

0:59:05.400 --> 0:59:07.240
<v Speaker 1>know she she got it. She set herself up, but

0:59:07.320 --> 0:59:08.760
<v Speaker 1>she ain't got to worry about it and she don't

0:59:08.760 --> 0:59:12.439
<v Speaker 1>want to She don't want to do She's like nine,

0:59:13.360 --> 0:59:15.120
<v Speaker 1>but no, she's in London. She could do to zoom.

0:59:15.160 --> 0:59:17.840
<v Speaker 1>She doesn't want to move back after December. So here's

0:59:17.880 --> 0:59:21.160
<v Speaker 1>what else she had to say on another lockdown from Thursday.

0:59:21.200 --> 0:59:24.400
<v Speaker 1>And that's another reason why, Like obviously, staying home has

0:59:24.480 --> 0:59:27.000
<v Speaker 1>been such a blessing, because my husband and I got

0:59:27.040 --> 0:59:28.960
<v Speaker 1>to know each other in another in a different way,

0:59:29.080 --> 0:59:31.600
<v Speaker 1>a beautiful way. So I want to be closer to him.

0:59:31.720 --> 0:59:34.400
<v Speaker 1>I want to concentrate on expanding our family, being with

0:59:34.600 --> 0:59:39.800
<v Speaker 1>my family, and oh I want to hug you, luth

0:59:39.920 --> 0:59:41.680
<v Speaker 1>Eve Man. I respect it. You have to know in

0:59:41.720 --> 0:59:43.919
<v Speaker 1>this time for you to walk away from situations. Plus

0:59:44.000 --> 0:59:46.000
<v Speaker 1>it's got to be difficult living in London but still

0:59:46.080 --> 0:59:48.400
<v Speaker 1>keeping your finger on the post of things that are

0:59:48.480 --> 0:59:54.120
<v Speaker 1>going on in America, especially right now. Right So yeah,

0:59:54.440 --> 0:59:56.680
<v Speaker 1>and it probably was easier for her doing it virtually,

0:59:56.880 --> 0:59:59.440
<v Speaker 1>but then you know, when it's time for her to

0:59:59.520 --> 1:00:02.240
<v Speaker 1>have to get back in the studio, she's like, not

1:00:02.440 --> 1:00:05.720
<v Speaker 1>leaving here and being with my family all right. Kurtie

1:00:05.760 --> 1:00:09.520
<v Speaker 1>b has legally dropped her divorce proceedings against Offsets, so

1:00:09.680 --> 1:00:14.720
<v Speaker 1>it looks like they are really trying to work things out. Yeah,

1:00:14.760 --> 1:00:17.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's that's the That's the horrible thing about

1:00:17.160 --> 1:00:19.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, being a relationship in the public like that

1:00:19.480 --> 1:00:22.280
<v Speaker 1>is everything that you do is it goes out to

1:00:22.320 --> 1:00:23.760
<v Speaker 1>the world, you know. I mean, this is something that's

1:00:23.760 --> 1:00:25.160
<v Speaker 1>going on between them. You know, it could have been

1:00:25.200 --> 1:00:26.720
<v Speaker 1>an argument, it could have been anything. But the first

1:00:26.760 --> 1:00:28.680
<v Speaker 1>thing people say is he cheated, he did this, And

1:00:28.760 --> 1:00:30.680
<v Speaker 1>she was like, no, we just had a bad argument.

1:00:30.920 --> 1:00:33.120
<v Speaker 1>But I'm just glad they're working it out. Man. You

1:00:33.280 --> 1:00:36.080
<v Speaker 1>gotta put the fear of God in your man sometime,

1:00:37.560 --> 1:00:41.880
<v Speaker 1>whether you're filing for the voice supporting pistol on him. Okay, yes, girl,

1:00:42.080 --> 1:00:44.440
<v Speaker 1>you gotta put the fear of God in your man sometimes. Well,

1:00:44.440 --> 1:00:47.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm speaking from a man's perspective. Men, and it works

1:00:47.520 --> 1:00:49.120
<v Speaker 1>for us, you know what I mean when a woman

1:00:49.160 --> 1:00:51.040
<v Speaker 1>puts the fear of God and us in that way,

1:00:51.280 --> 1:00:54.360
<v Speaker 1>But not theist. We're not just putting the fear of God.

1:00:54.440 --> 1:00:56.120
<v Speaker 1>We mean it. And it ain't like I'm just gonna

1:00:56.200 --> 1:00:59.600
<v Speaker 1>scare him at the time, mint it. I'm talking about

1:01:00.360 --> 1:01:02.880
<v Speaker 1>of us for those who are just trying to scare us. Okay.

1:01:03.120 --> 1:01:05.760
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, and you'd much rather have a

1:01:05.840 --> 1:01:09.000
<v Speaker 1>pistol in your face as opposed to them divorce papers

1:01:09.000 --> 1:01:17.680
<v Speaker 1>getting fired. Okay, preach amen, right right, amen? Preach as

1:01:17.720 --> 1:01:20.480
<v Speaker 1>a woman, though I must. I've never heard I've never

1:01:20.600 --> 1:01:22.080
<v Speaker 1>felt like and I've never heard none of my home

1:01:22.160 --> 1:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>girls say I'm just going threatened to leave him. I'm not, really,

1:01:25.040 --> 1:01:28.360
<v Speaker 1>I just want to scare him. You surely mean it.

1:01:28.680 --> 1:01:30.480
<v Speaker 1>It ain't like you just doing it to scare him.

1:01:30.720 --> 1:01:32.840
<v Speaker 1>You mean, if you want to trying to scare somebody,

1:01:33.280 --> 1:01:35.160
<v Speaker 1>you really thinking this is what I'm gonna do. I've

1:01:35.200 --> 1:01:39.400
<v Speaker 1>got all right now. I love, I'm not even a woman,

1:01:39.400 --> 1:01:41.080
<v Speaker 1>but I got home girls, and I've heard I heard

1:01:41.120 --> 1:01:43.840
<v Speaker 1>that before. I'm just bugging you know what. I'm scared

1:01:43.840 --> 1:01:45.560
<v Speaker 1>of the divorce papers bore and I'm scared of a pistol.

1:01:45.960 --> 1:01:48.320
<v Speaker 1>I know that. Why would you let me speak for you?

1:01:48.440 --> 1:01:50.360

<v Speaker 1>we have a special guest on the line, Stacey Abrahams.

1:02:25.120 --> 1:02:28.360
<v Speaker 1>Good morning State, Say good morning. Thank you guys for

1:02:28.440 --> 1:02:30.440
<v Speaker 1>having me. Man. I got so many questions for you

1:02:30.560 --> 1:02:33.920
<v Speaker 1>this morning. Number one, when did Georgia become a battleground?

1:02:33.960 --> 1:02:37.760
<v Speaker 1>State one of the US done. We were we were

1:02:37.800 --> 1:02:40.840
<v Speaker 1>possibly a battleground state in twenty sixteen, but we know

1:02:40.920 --> 1:02:43.480
<v Speaker 1>in twenty eighteen, when we were able to finally invest

1:02:43.960 --> 1:02:47.080
<v Speaker 1>in black and brown voters and discouraged voters and Luke

1:02:47.080 --> 1:02:49.920
<v Speaker 1>propensity voters, we became a battleground state. Was a one

1:02:50.000 --> 1:02:52.720
<v Speaker 1>point four percent race. And so this year was the

1:02:52.760 --> 1:02:55.040
<v Speaker 1>first year we had a presidential nominee who was willing

1:02:55.360 --> 1:02:57.080
<v Speaker 1>to put the money in. It didn't hurt that we

1:02:57.200 --> 1:02:59.920
<v Speaker 1>have two US Senate races, John ass Off and raw

1:03:00.000 --> 1:03:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Fil Warnock, who've spent a lot of money to make

1:03:02.280 --> 1:03:05.640
<v Speaker 1>sure that voters understand what's at staken, that their voice matters.

1:03:06.000 --> 1:03:07.880
<v Speaker 1>We have you to think for George to becoming a

1:03:07.880 --> 1:03:10.480
<v Speaker 1>batter ground state, then I've been doing a lot of work,

1:03:10.520 --> 1:03:11.960
<v Speaker 1>but I can't take all the credit. We've had a

1:03:11.960 --> 1:03:13.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of folks who have been trying to make this

1:03:13.240 --> 1:03:17.000
<v Speaker 1>happen that Stacey asked the expert, I got some questions

1:03:17.040 --> 1:03:19.840
<v Speaker 1>for you of what's happening today. So let's just say

1:03:19.920 --> 1:03:22.600
<v Speaker 1>you're not registered to vote, and so you think that

1:03:22.800 --> 1:03:25.080
<v Speaker 1>you can't vote. Is there a way that you can

1:03:25.320 --> 1:03:28.120
<v Speaker 1>registers to vote today? So depends on the state you

1:03:28.200 --> 1:03:30.160
<v Speaker 1>live in. If you go to I will vote dot com,

1:03:30.560 --> 1:03:32.520
<v Speaker 1>it will give you information about whether you're in a

1:03:32.600 --> 1:03:35.560
<v Speaker 1>state where they will allow same day registration. We know,

1:03:35.680 --> 1:03:38.520
<v Speaker 1>for example, in North Carolina you can register the same day.

1:03:38.880 --> 1:03:40.560
<v Speaker 1>I think the same thing is true in Michigan. So

1:03:41.120 --> 1:03:43.720
<v Speaker 1>go to I will vote dot com, put in your code,

1:03:43.720 --> 1:03:45.840
<v Speaker 1>put in your information, and it will tell you how

1:03:45.960 --> 1:03:48.880
<v Speaker 1>you can register to vote if you can. Georgia unfortunately

1:03:49.040 --> 1:03:51.320
<v Speaker 1>does not allow same day registration, but there are a

1:03:51.360 --> 1:03:53.280
<v Speaker 1>lot of states that are moving in that direction, so

1:03:53.640 --> 1:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>make sure you take advantage of it. Now, today is

1:03:55.680 --> 1:03:58.040
<v Speaker 1>the last day. Now, how important is voting for black

1:03:58.120 --> 1:03:59.680
<v Speaker 1>and brown voters. There's a lot of people out there.

1:03:59.720 --> 1:04:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Saw my vote doesn't matter, it's just one vote. Or

1:04:02.240 --> 1:04:04.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm in a state that always goals democratic. I'm in

1:04:04.600 --> 1:04:06.840
<v Speaker 1>a state that always goals Republicans. So what do you

1:04:06.920 --> 1:04:09.400
<v Speaker 1>say to old people out there? Oh, even Georgia, you

1:04:09.480 --> 1:04:12.000
<v Speaker 1>can't count anybody out. So here are three things to know.

1:04:12.240 --> 1:04:16.440
<v Speaker 1>Number One, voting isn't magic, it's medicine. And so if

1:04:16.520 --> 1:04:18.280
<v Speaker 1>we want to cure the ills, if we want to

1:04:18.320 --> 1:04:20.640
<v Speaker 1>cure the diseases that we see in our country, racism

1:04:20.920 --> 1:04:26.200
<v Speaker 1>systemic inequality, police brutality, income, inequality, healthcare. All of those

1:04:26.280 --> 1:04:29.440
<v Speaker 1>things get changed by voting. In Georgia, in twenty eighteen,

1:04:29.560 --> 1:04:32.680
<v Speaker 1>we had a congressional person, a congressional candidate who lost

1:04:32.720 --> 1:04:36.920
<v Speaker 1>by four hundred and thirty three votes. So close races

1:04:37.120 --> 1:04:39.400
<v Speaker 1>change the future, and we know if we can take

1:04:39.440 --> 1:04:42.640
<v Speaker 1>the Senate and hold the House and win the presidency,

1:04:43.000 --> 1:04:45.400
<v Speaker 1>that's the game changer. That is something we haven't seen

1:04:45.680 --> 1:04:49.320
<v Speaker 1>since two thousand and eight. So Number One, think about

1:04:49.400 --> 1:04:51.280
<v Speaker 1>voting not as magic. You're not gonna get everything you

1:04:51.320 --> 1:04:53.320
<v Speaker 1>want by voting, but you get more of what you need,

1:04:53.400 --> 1:04:55.520
<v Speaker 1>and the more we do it, the healthier we get.

1:04:55.920 --> 1:04:59.520
<v Speaker 1>Number Two, your vote counts because if it didn't matter

1:04:59.600 --> 1:05:03.400
<v Speaker 1>so much, they would not be spending millions of dollars

1:05:03.480 --> 1:05:05.840
<v Speaker 1>to stop you. And they know they can count just

1:05:05.920 --> 1:05:08.520
<v Speaker 1>like we can. And for the first time in American history,

1:05:08.920 --> 1:05:11.000
<v Speaker 1>reef reached an inflection point where there are more of

1:05:11.120 --> 1:05:13.120
<v Speaker 1>us than there are of them. When I say more

1:05:13.120 --> 1:05:15.120
<v Speaker 1>of us, I mean more black and brown folks who

1:05:15.200 --> 1:05:18.080
<v Speaker 1>can actually change the outcome of elections. That hasn't always

1:05:18.120 --> 1:05:20.400
<v Speaker 1>been true. For most of my life, we have been

1:05:20.880 --> 1:05:24.000
<v Speaker 1>nice to have, but not necessary to have now we're necessary,

1:05:24.080 --> 1:05:25.960
<v Speaker 1>and if we show up and use our power, we

1:05:26.120 --> 1:05:29.480
<v Speaker 1>win number three. If this is a close race, which

1:05:29.520 --> 1:05:31.960
<v Speaker 1>we expect, it's going to be those marginal votes that

1:05:32.080 --> 1:05:35.919
<v Speaker 1>nobody expected that actually change the world. So your vote

1:05:35.960 --> 1:05:38.120
<v Speaker 1>could be the one that tips the difference one way

1:05:38.200 --> 1:05:40.640
<v Speaker 1>or the other. And whether you vote or not, you're

1:05:41.000 --> 1:05:43.360
<v Speaker 1>making a choice. If you don't show up, they're going

1:05:43.400 --> 1:05:45.560
<v Speaker 1>to decide. They're going to assume that you chose what

1:05:45.680 --> 1:05:48.800
<v Speaker 1>we've got. And if you're good with that, okay. But

1:05:48.920 --> 1:05:51.720
<v Speaker 1>if you want something different, if you want something better,

1:05:51.760 --> 1:05:53.800
<v Speaker 1>if you want a president who actually thinks that we

1:05:53.880 --> 1:05:57.880
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't die from COVID nineteen so that he can pretend,

1:05:57.960 --> 1:06:00.080
<v Speaker 1>if you want to make certain that we have a

1:06:00.160 --> 1:06:03.120
<v Speaker 1>plan to stop chokeholds from killing black folks and brown folks.

1:06:03.400 --> 1:06:05.840
<v Speaker 1>If you want there to be a difference, you not

1:06:05.960 --> 1:06:07.680
<v Speaker 1>only need to vote for the president, but you need

1:06:07.680 --> 1:06:10.080
<v Speaker 1>to vote all the way down the ballot. I heard

1:06:10.120 --> 1:06:11.680
<v Speaker 1>the Earth Gang. I was on an IG Live and

1:06:11.680 --> 1:06:13.200
<v Speaker 1>the Earth Gang set. The closer you get to the

1:06:13.240 --> 1:06:15.720
<v Speaker 1>bottom of the ballot, the closer you get to home.

1:06:15.960 --> 1:06:17.960
<v Speaker 1>So don't just think that the world is solved with

1:06:18.000 --> 1:06:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the presidency. If you got to vote for DA's judges, mayors,

1:06:22.520 --> 1:06:25.680
<v Speaker 1>state legislators. So make sure you vote the entire ballot.

1:06:26.120 --> 1:06:28.200
<v Speaker 1>That's like doing a scratch off ticket and only scratching

1:06:28.240 --> 1:06:29.880
<v Speaker 1>off a couple and number. Scratch off the whole thing,

1:06:30.040 --> 1:06:34.280
<v Speaker 1>so you can make sure you can win the political lottery. Now, Stacy,

1:06:34.320 --> 1:06:36.360
<v Speaker 1>what if you show up and they say you're not registered?

1:06:36.760 --> 1:06:39.000
<v Speaker 1>So again, go to I will vote dot com to

1:06:39.160 --> 1:06:41.480
<v Speaker 1>make sure that you're in a state where you can

1:06:41.520 --> 1:06:44.000
<v Speaker 1>do same day registration. But if you think you're registered,

1:06:44.200 --> 1:06:46.680
<v Speaker 1>go anyway. And what can happen is if you have

1:06:46.800 --> 1:06:50.520
<v Speaker 1>any problems, called eight to six six hour vote. Eight

1:06:50.680 --> 1:06:52.840
<v Speaker 1>six six hour vote. The only two things you need

1:06:52.880 --> 1:06:55.280
<v Speaker 1>to remember today besides going to vote I will vote

1:06:55.320 --> 1:06:58.880
<v Speaker 1>dot com at eight sixty six hour vote. Our vote

1:06:59.000 --> 1:07:02.760
<v Speaker 1>is populated by civil rights attorneys whose only job today

1:07:02.840 --> 1:07:04.760
<v Speaker 1>is to help you vote. So they can help you

1:07:04.880 --> 1:07:08.080
<v Speaker 1>understand if it's your issue or if it's their issue.

1:07:08.360 --> 1:07:10.640
<v Speaker 1>And one of the ways voter suppression works, it's by

1:07:10.720 --> 1:07:13.200
<v Speaker 1>taking people off the roles who should not have been removed.

1:07:13.600 --> 1:07:15.440
<v Speaker 1>If you call eight six six hour vote, they can

1:07:15.520 --> 1:07:18.920
<v Speaker 1>help you get your registration issues resolved if possible, and

1:07:19.040 --> 1:07:20.760
<v Speaker 1>they can tell you what you need to do, but

1:07:20.920 --> 1:07:23.360
<v Speaker 1>no matter what happens, do not get out of line.

1:07:24.200 --> 1:07:27.280
<v Speaker 1>Do you think fair Fight has done his job? You

1:07:27.360 --> 1:07:29.080
<v Speaker 1>know what role do you think fair Fight played in

1:07:29.240 --> 1:07:31.880
<v Speaker 1>ensuring at the voting process is fair all across the

1:07:31.960 --> 1:07:34.920
<v Speaker 1>country today? But stay well answer that when we come back.

1:07:34.960 --> 1:07:37.720
<v Speaker 1>All right, Stacy Abrams is here. Today's election day, so

1:07:37.880 --> 1:07:40.280
<v Speaker 1>don't move. We got more with Stacy Abrams when we

1:07:40.360 --> 1:07:43.160
<v Speaker 1>come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody

1:07:43.320 --> 1:07:46.880
<v Speaker 1>is DJ Envy Angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We are

1:07:46.960 --> 1:07:49.560
<v Speaker 1>the Breakfast Club. On election Day. We have a special

1:07:49.640 --> 1:07:54.840
<v Speaker 1>guest on the line, Stacy Abrams. Good morning, stay say morning,

1:07:55.160 --> 1:07:56.840
<v Speaker 1>thank you guys for having me man. I got so

1:07:56.960 --> 1:07:59.920
<v Speaker 1>many questions for you this morning. Number one, when day

1:08:00.040 --> 1:08:05.560
<v Speaker 1>George would become a battleground dates day. We were possibly

1:08:05.600 --> 1:08:08.320
<v Speaker 1>a battleground state in twenty sixteen, but we know in

1:08:08.360 --> 1:08:11.360
<v Speaker 1>twenty eighteen, when we were able to finally invest in

1:08:11.520 --> 1:08:15.240
<v Speaker 1>black and brown voters, in discouraged voters and low propensity voters,

1:08:15.600 --> 1:08:17.559
<v Speaker 1>we became a battleground state. It was a one point

1:08:17.640 --> 1:08:20.320
<v Speaker 1>four percent race. And so this year was the first

1:08:20.400 --> 1:08:22.760
<v Speaker 1>year we had a presidential nominee who was willing to

1:08:22.840 --> 1:08:24.560
<v Speaker 1>put the money in. It didn't hurt that we have

1:08:24.720 --> 1:08:28.040
<v Speaker 1>two US Senate races, John Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, who

1:08:28.160 --> 1:08:30.360
<v Speaker 1>spent a lot of money to make sure that voters

1:08:30.760 --> 1:08:33.519
<v Speaker 1>understand what's at staken, that their voice matters. We have

1:08:33.640 --> 1:08:36.680
<v Speaker 1>you to think George becoming a battleground state. Then I've

1:08:36.720 --> 1:08:38.400
<v Speaker 1>been doing a lot of work, but I can't take

1:08:38.439 --> 1:08:39.920
<v Speaker 1>all the credit. We've had a lot of folks who've

1:08:39.920 --> 1:08:43.479
<v Speaker 1>been trying to make this happen. Now, Stacy as the expert,

1:08:43.479 --> 1:08:45.880
<v Speaker 1>I got some questions for you of what's happening today.

1:08:46.240 --> 1:08:48.760
<v Speaker 1>So let's just say you're not registered to vote, and

1:08:48.880 --> 1:08:51.360
<v Speaker 1>so you think that you can't vote. Is there a

1:08:51.439 --> 1:08:54.960
<v Speaker 1>way that you can register to vote today? So depends

1:08:54.960 --> 1:08:56.200
<v Speaker 1>on the state you live in. If you go to

1:08:56.360 --> 1:08:58.920
<v Speaker 1>I will vote dot com, it will give you information

1:08:58.960 --> 1:09:00.920
<v Speaker 1>about whether you're in a state where they will allow

1:09:01.080 --> 1:09:04.360
<v Speaker 1>same day registration. We know, for example, in North Carolina

1:09:04.479 --> 1:09:06.760
<v Speaker 1>you can register the same day. I think the same

1:09:06.800 --> 1:09:09.400
<v Speaker 1>thing is true in Michigan. So go to iwill vote

1:09:09.439 --> 1:09:11.919
<v Speaker 1>dot com, put in your zip code, put in your information,

1:09:12.160 --> 1:09:14.360
<v Speaker 1>and it will tell you how you can register to vote.

1:09:14.360 --> 1:09:18.000
<v Speaker 1>If you can. Georgia unfortunately does not allow same day registration,

1:09:18.320 --> 1:09:19.679
<v Speaker 1>but there are a lot of states that are moving

1:09:19.680 --> 1:09:22.559
<v Speaker 1>in that direction, so make sure you take advantage of it. Now.

1:09:22.640 --> 1:09:25.040
<v Speaker 1>Today is the last day. Now, how important is voting

1:09:25.080 --> 1:09:26.800
<v Speaker 1>for black and brown voters because a lot of people

1:09:26.800 --> 1:09:28.479
<v Speaker 1>out there and say, oh, my vote doesn't matter, it's

1:09:28.520 --> 1:09:30.799
<v Speaker 1>just one vote. Or I'm in a state that always

1:09:30.840 --> 1:09:33.560
<v Speaker 1>goals democratic. I'm in a state that always goals Republicans.

1:09:33.640 --> 1:09:35.400
<v Speaker 1>So what do you say to old people out there?

1:09:35.720 --> 1:09:38.599
<v Speaker 1>Oheve in Georgia, you can't count anybody out. So here

1:09:38.640 --> 1:09:41.679
<v Speaker 1>are three things to know. Number one, voting isn't magic,

1:09:41.960 --> 1:09:45.080
<v Speaker 1>it's medicine. And so if we want to cure the ills,

1:09:45.160 --> 1:09:46.920
<v Speaker 1>if we want to cure the diseases that we see

1:09:46.920 --> 1:09:52.640
<v Speaker 1>in our country, racism, systemic inequality, police brutality, income, inequality, healthcare,

1:09:53.040 --> 1:09:56.000
<v Speaker 1>all of those things get changed by voting. In Georgia,

1:09:56.040 --> 1:09:59.280
<v Speaker 1>in twenty eighteen, we had a congressional person, a congressional

1:09:59.280 --> 1:10:01.960
<v Speaker 1>candidate who lost by four hundred and thirty three votes.

1:10:02.880 --> 1:10:06.320
<v Speaker 1>So close races change the future. And we know if

1:10:06.320 --> 1:10:08.960
<v Speaker 1>we can take the Senate and hold the House and

1:10:09.120 --> 1:10:12.040
<v Speaker 1>when the presidency, that's the game changer. That is something

1:10:12.120 --> 1:10:15.680
<v Speaker 1>we haven't seen since two thousand and eight. So Number one,

1:10:16.280 --> 1:10:18.160
<v Speaker 1>think about voting not as a magic You're not gonna

1:10:18.160 --> 1:10:20.000
<v Speaker 1>get everything you want by voting, but you get more

1:10:20.040 --> 1:10:21.640
<v Speaker 1>of what you need, and the more we do it,

1:10:21.920 --> 1:10:25.880
<v Speaker 1>the healthier we get. Number two, your vote counts because

1:10:26.000 --> 1:10:28.479
<v Speaker 1>if it didn't matter so much, they would not be

1:10:28.680 --> 1:10:32.360
<v Speaker 1>spending millions of dollars to stop you. And they know

1:10:32.560 --> 1:10:34.200
<v Speaker 1>they can count just like we can. And for the

1:10:34.280 --> 1:10:37.639
<v Speaker 1>first time in American history, reef reached an inflection point

1:10:37.640 --> 1:10:39.360
<v Speaker 1>where there are more of us than there are of them.

1:10:39.800 --> 1:10:41.439
<v Speaker 1>When I say more of us, I mean more black

1:10:41.479 --> 1:10:44.439
<v Speaker 1>and brown folks who can actually change the outcome of elections.

1:10:44.640 --> 1:10:47.160
<v Speaker 1>That hasn't always been true. For most of my life.

1:10:47.240 --> 1:10:49.840
<v Speaker 1>We have been nice to have, but not necessary to have.

1:10:50.320 --> 1:10:52.519
<v Speaker 1>Now we're necessary, and if we show up and use

1:10:52.560 --> 1:10:55.920
<v Speaker 1>our power, we win. Number Three. If this is a

1:10:56.040 --> 1:10:58.439
<v Speaker 1>close race, which we expect, it's going to be those

1:10:58.560 --> 1:11:02.200
<v Speaker 1>marginal votes that nobody expected that actually changed the world.

1:11:02.520 --> 1:11:04.720
<v Speaker 1>So your vote could be the one that tips the

1:11:04.800 --> 1:11:07.320
<v Speaker 1>difference one way or the other. And whether you vote

1:11:07.400 --> 1:11:10.400
<v Speaker 1>or not, you're making a choice. If you don't show up,

1:11:10.400 --> 1:11:12.400
<v Speaker 1>they're going to decide. They're going to assume that you

1:11:12.560 --> 1:11:15.839
<v Speaker 1>chose what we've got. And if you're good with that, okay,

1:11:16.120 --> 1:11:19.040
<v Speaker 1>But if you want something different, if you want something better,

1:11:19.120 --> 1:11:21.160
<v Speaker 1>if you want a president who actually thinks that we

1:11:21.200 --> 1:11:25.240
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't die from COVID nineteen so that he can pretend,

1:11:25.320 --> 1:11:27.360
<v Speaker 1>if you want to make certain that we have a

1:11:27.479 --> 1:11:30.479
<v Speaker 1>plan to stop chokeholds from killing black folks and brown folks.

1:11:30.760 --> 1:11:33.160
<v Speaker 1>If you want there to be a difference, you not

1:11:33.280 --> 1:11:35.040
<v Speaker 1>only need to vote for the president, but you need

1:11:35.040 --> 1:11:37.439
<v Speaker 1>to vote all the way down the ballot. I heard

1:11:37.479 --> 1:11:39.040
<v Speaker 1>the Earth Gang. I was on an IG Live and

1:11:39.040 --> 1:11:40.560
<v Speaker 1>the Earth Gang set. The closer you get to the

1:11:40.600 --> 1:11:43.040
<v Speaker 1>bottom of the ballot, the closer you get to home.

1:11:43.320 --> 1:11:45.320
<v Speaker 1>So don't just think that the world is solved with

1:11:45.360 --> 1:11:49.360
<v Speaker 1>the presidency. If you got to vote for DA's judges, mayors,

1:11:49.880 --> 1:11:53.040
<v Speaker 1>state legislators. So make sure you vote the entire ballot.

1:11:53.479 --> 1:11:55.559
<v Speaker 1>That's like doing a scratch off ticket and only scratching

1:11:55.560 --> 1:11:57.200
<v Speaker 1>off a couple and number. Scratch off the whole thing,

1:11:57.400 --> 1:12:01.200
<v Speaker 1>so you can make sure you win the political lottery. Now,

1:12:01.280 --> 1:12:02.720
<v Speaker 1>stay see what if you show up and they say

1:12:02.760 --> 1:12:05.439
<v Speaker 1>you're not registered? So again, go to I will vote

1:12:05.479 --> 1:12:07.719
<v Speaker 1>dot com to make sure that you're in a state

1:12:07.920 --> 1:12:10.360
<v Speaker 1>where you can do same day registration. But if you

1:12:10.520 --> 1:12:13.640
<v Speaker 1>think you're registered, go anyway. And what can happen is

1:12:13.680 --> 1:12:16.160
<v Speaker 1>if you have any problems, called eight to six six

1:12:16.560 --> 1:12:19.960
<v Speaker 1>hour vote eight six six hour vote. Only two things

1:12:20.000 --> 1:12:22.120
<v Speaker 1>you need to remember today besides going to vote, I

1:12:22.240 --> 1:12:25.080
<v Speaker 1>will vote dot com at eight six six hour vote.

1:12:25.640 --> 1:12:29.519
<v Speaker 1>Our vote is populated by civil rights attorneys whose only

1:12:29.600 --> 1:12:31.760
<v Speaker 1>job today is to help you vote. So they can

1:12:31.840 --> 1:12:34.840
<v Speaker 1>help you understand if it's your issue or if it's

1:12:34.920 --> 1:12:37.559
<v Speaker 1>their issue. And one of the ways voter suppression works,

1:12:37.720 --> 1:12:39.720
<v Speaker 1>it's by taking people off the rolls who should not

1:12:39.840 --> 1:12:42.559
<v Speaker 1>have been removed. If you call eight six six hour vote,

1:12:42.600 --> 1:12:46.000
<v Speaker 1>they can help you get your registration issues resolved if possible,

1:12:46.240 --> 1:12:47.680
<v Speaker 1>and they can tell you what you need to do.

1:12:48.080 --> 1:12:50.759
<v Speaker 1>But no matter what happens, do not get out of line.

1:12:51.520 --> 1:12:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Do you think fair Fight has done his job? You

1:12:54.680 --> 1:12:56.439
<v Speaker 1>know what role do you think fair Fight played and

1:12:56.600 --> 1:12:59.240
<v Speaker 1>ensuring at the voting process is fair all across the

1:12:59.280 --> 1:13:02.280
<v Speaker 1>country today. But stay, we'll answer that when we come back.

1:13:02.320 --> 1:13:05.080
<v Speaker 1>All right, Stacy Abrams is here. Today's election day, so

1:13:05.200 --> 1:13:07.600
<v Speaker 1>don't move. We got more with Stacy Abrams. When we

1:13:07.720 --> 1:13:11.080
<v Speaker 1>come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, wanting everybody

1:13:11.200 --> 1:13:14.439
<v Speaker 1>is DJ Envy and lu Ye Shalomagne the guy we

1:13:14.520 --> 1:13:17.320
<v Speaker 1>are the Breakfast Club would be enjoined by Stacy Abrams

1:13:17.400 --> 1:13:19.200
<v Speaker 1>this morning. Now, Shaloman, you had a question. Yeah, I

1:13:19.280 --> 1:13:21.640
<v Speaker 1>was talking about Stacey's initiative Fair Fight, and I was

1:13:21.680 --> 1:13:23.920
<v Speaker 1>just wondering, you know, what role has fair Fight played

1:13:23.960 --> 1:13:26.000
<v Speaker 1>and is sharing at the voting process? Is fair all

1:13:26.040 --> 1:13:28.639
<v Speaker 1>across the country today? So when I wanted fair Fight

1:13:28.720 --> 1:13:32.000
<v Speaker 1>in twenty eighteen, my first mission was to lift up

1:13:32.160 --> 1:13:34.880
<v Speaker 1>the issue of voter suppression, to talk about it out loud,

1:13:34.920 --> 1:13:37.360
<v Speaker 1>because we've known about it for years, but no one

1:13:37.439 --> 1:13:39.360
<v Speaker 1>really was willing to say it aloud because we were

1:13:39.400 --> 1:13:41.519
<v Speaker 1>afraid it would scare people. What I wanted people to

1:13:41.600 --> 1:13:43.200
<v Speaker 1>understand is whether we said it or not, it was

1:13:43.200 --> 1:13:44.680
<v Speaker 1>going to affect us, so we might as well talk

1:13:44.680 --> 1:13:46.519
<v Speaker 1>about it. So Number one, I think we have had

1:13:46.560 --> 1:13:50.200
<v Speaker 1>a robust conversation over the last two years about voter suppression.

1:13:50.520 --> 1:13:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Number two, in the state of Georgia, we were able

1:13:52.840 --> 1:13:56.160
<v Speaker 1>to change some of the worst laws related to voter suppression,

1:13:56.240 --> 1:13:58.920
<v Speaker 1>making sure that exact match no longer holds black and

1:13:58.960 --> 1:14:01.600
<v Speaker 1>Brown voters hostage, but also making sure that if you

1:14:01.720 --> 1:14:04.160
<v Speaker 1>make a mistake on your absentee ballot, you now have

1:14:04.320 --> 1:14:06.280
<v Speaker 1>time to fix it. They have to tell you there

1:14:06.360 --> 1:14:07.840
<v Speaker 1>was a mistake, and they've got to let you fix it.

1:14:08.240 --> 1:14:11.120
<v Speaker 1>But across the country, starting in August of twenty nineteen,

1:14:11.560 --> 1:14:14.560
<v Speaker 1>we have been in twenty battleground states. Were there to

1:14:14.640 --> 1:14:16.800
<v Speaker 1>help make sure that voters got restored to the roles

1:14:16.960 --> 1:14:19.439
<v Speaker 1>and Andy Basher became the governor of Kentucky when the

1:14:19.479 --> 1:14:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Republican governor tried to purge one hundred and forty five thousand.

1:14:22.320 --> 1:14:24.920
<v Speaker 1>We were down in Louisiana when John Bell Edwards needed

1:14:25.000 --> 1:14:27.599
<v Speaker 1>black voters who were facing voter suppression, when were able

1:14:27.640 --> 1:14:29.280
<v Speaker 1>to make sure they could make it through those lines

1:14:29.520 --> 1:14:31.720
<v Speaker 1>and get to vote, and he was restored. We were

1:14:31.760 --> 1:14:34.600
<v Speaker 1>in Wisconsin in April making sure that voters got the

1:14:34.720 --> 1:14:36.960
<v Speaker 1>right to vote even in the midst of COVID, and

1:14:37.120 --> 1:14:39.880
<v Speaker 1>we have been working across the country helping shore up

1:14:39.920 --> 1:14:43.439
<v Speaker 1>through litigation, legislation, and advocacy and the one number I

1:14:43.439 --> 1:14:47.759
<v Speaker 1>all uses this. In January of twenty twenty, only thirty

1:14:47.840 --> 1:14:50.719
<v Speaker 1>four states allowed you to vote by mail with no excuse.

1:14:51.120 --> 1:14:54.519
<v Speaker 1>As of today, it's forty five states. That means that

1:14:54.600 --> 1:14:57.160
<v Speaker 1>in forty five states out of fifty people have the

1:14:57.280 --> 1:14:59.680
<v Speaker 1>right and have had the right to vote absentee. That

1:15:00.280 --> 1:15:02.479
<v Speaker 1>huge because in the midst of a pandemic, it was

1:15:02.520 --> 1:15:04.360
<v Speaker 1>the safest way to vote. And I want to remind

1:15:04.400 --> 1:15:06.640
<v Speaker 1>everyone if you have an abstine t ballot, take it

1:15:06.760 --> 1:15:09.479
<v Speaker 1>directly to your elections office, to your drop box, get

1:15:09.520 --> 1:15:11.360
<v Speaker 1>it in. Do not hand it to the post office.

1:15:11.800 --> 1:15:14.559
<v Speaker 1>Today's last call. Drop it in yourself and make sure

1:15:14.600 --> 1:15:16.360
<v Speaker 1>that you get your ballot turned in. Do you think

1:15:16.360 --> 1:15:18.719
<v Speaker 1>we will know a winner for tonight because some people

1:15:18.760 --> 1:15:21.040
<v Speaker 1>say we might possibly know. What are your thoughts on that?

1:15:21.520 --> 1:15:24.080
<v Speaker 1>So what we use, what we're used to our predictions.

1:15:24.240 --> 1:15:27.040
<v Speaker 1>We don't ever know the actual answer on election night

1:15:27.400 --> 1:15:32.200
<v Speaker 1>because states take time to count. We will likely have predictions,

1:15:32.560 --> 1:15:35.559
<v Speaker 1>but hopefully the predictions will be based on the best information.

1:15:35.640 --> 1:15:37.760
<v Speaker 1>And my hope is that we won't hear anything until

1:15:37.760 --> 1:15:40.360
<v Speaker 1>people know something. It is better for us to get

1:15:40.400 --> 1:15:43.240
<v Speaker 1>an answer that is slow and right than fast and wrong.

1:15:43.840 --> 1:15:46.360
<v Speaker 1>And if we take the time to count all of

1:15:46.400 --> 1:15:48.599
<v Speaker 1>these apps and tea ballots. More than one hundred million

1:15:48.680 --> 1:15:51.840
<v Speaker 1>people voted early, and it takes more time to count

1:15:51.920 --> 1:15:55.200
<v Speaker 1>paper ballots. We need to be patient. We don't need

1:15:55.240 --> 1:15:56.479
<v Speaker 1>to know the answer when we go to bed. What

1:15:56.560 --> 1:15:58.120
<v Speaker 1>we need to know when we go to bed tonight

1:15:58.439 --> 1:16:00.600
<v Speaker 1>is that every American who wanted to vote got a

1:16:00.720 --> 1:16:03.320
<v Speaker 1>chance to vote. We'll get the answer, but I'd rather

1:16:03.400 --> 1:16:05.800
<v Speaker 1>have the answer to be right than have an answer

1:16:05.880 --> 1:16:08.960
<v Speaker 1>that's unclear and that leads to chaos. Stacy, do you

1:16:09.080 --> 1:16:12.880
<v Speaker 1>think the Democratic model as currently constructed a sustainable meaning?

1:16:12.960 --> 1:16:15.479
<v Speaker 1>Black men and black women are the largest group of

1:16:15.560 --> 1:16:18.200
<v Speaker 1>voters for Democrats, but it's always show up for them,

1:16:18.240 --> 1:16:19.599
<v Speaker 1>but a lot of black people feel like they don't

1:16:19.640 --> 1:16:22.760
<v Speaker 1>show up for us. How much longer can that work

1:16:22.840 --> 1:16:26.160
<v Speaker 1>for Democrats if it works today? Well, I frame it

1:16:26.320 --> 1:16:30.040
<v Speaker 1>slightly differently. Yes, Black voters have been the most loyal

1:16:30.200 --> 1:16:33.920
<v Speaker 1>contingency of the Democratic Party, and we are being joined

1:16:34.000 --> 1:16:35.760
<v Speaker 1>by more and more young people, by more and more

1:16:35.800 --> 1:16:39.080
<v Speaker 1>people of color, Latino, Asian, American, Pacific Islander, Native American.

1:16:39.240 --> 1:16:41.960
<v Speaker 1>We're being joined by white voters who realize that the

1:16:42.040 --> 1:16:45.360
<v Speaker 1>Republican model does not help them progress. But we also

1:16:45.400 --> 1:16:48.559
<v Speaker 1>have to remember our numbers are different. For so long,

1:16:48.720 --> 1:16:50.720
<v Speaker 1>we voted in a party where we were not only

1:16:50.800 --> 1:16:53.280
<v Speaker 1>the minority in the population. We're the minority in the party.

1:16:53.600 --> 1:16:57.240
<v Speaker 1>But when you add together all of the rising American electorate,

1:16:57.640 --> 1:17:00.519
<v Speaker 1>we now have the ability to actually set the if

1:17:00.560 --> 1:17:02.880
<v Speaker 1>we show up. And that's the big piece I think

1:17:02.880 --> 1:17:05.920
<v Speaker 1>it's missing in this conversation. Twenty years ago, there weren't

1:17:06.000 --> 1:17:09.120
<v Speaker 1>enough of us to absolutely guarantee outcomes. Now there are.

1:17:09.240 --> 1:17:12.439
<v Speaker 1>If we actually voted our power, we have the ability

1:17:12.479 --> 1:17:14.960
<v Speaker 1>to not only change the direction of the Democratic Party,

1:17:14.960 --> 1:17:17.280
<v Speaker 1>we can change the direction of the nation. But we've

1:17:17.320 --> 1:17:20.120
<v Speaker 1>got to recognize that it's a dual responsibility. We need

1:17:20.200 --> 1:17:22.360
<v Speaker 1>those we need folks to pour into us, but we've

1:17:22.400 --> 1:17:24.640
<v Speaker 1>got to pour into ourselves and make sure that we

1:17:24.920 --> 1:17:27.479
<v Speaker 1>vote our power up and down the ballot, because it's

1:17:27.520 --> 1:17:29.680
<v Speaker 1>not just about who wins the presidency, it's about who

1:17:29.720 --> 1:17:33.200
<v Speaker 1>wins every single seat and makes every single law. So

1:17:33.360 --> 1:17:35.840
<v Speaker 1>after we do that, how do we make clear I

1:17:36.360 --> 1:17:37.960
<v Speaker 1>guess what do we do next? Like, do we make

1:17:38.040 --> 1:17:41.920
<v Speaker 1>clear demands and to tell them what we want? Absolutely?

1:17:42.040 --> 1:17:44.400
<v Speaker 1>So I talked about it this way. We protest in

1:17:44.479 --> 1:17:47.400
<v Speaker 1>the streets to demand what we want. We protest at

1:17:47.439 --> 1:17:49.559
<v Speaker 1>the ballot box to get who we need, and then

1:17:49.600 --> 1:17:51.840
<v Speaker 1>we protest in the halls of power to hold them accountable.

1:17:52.200 --> 1:17:54.320
<v Speaker 1>Politics the only job where you get hired and then

1:17:54.360 --> 1:17:56.080
<v Speaker 1>people leave for two to four years and expect you

1:17:56.160 --> 1:17:58.080
<v Speaker 1>to just do what you're supposed to do. If we

1:17:58.240 --> 1:18:00.519
<v Speaker 1>don't hold people accountable, why would we think they're going

1:18:00.600 --> 1:18:03.160
<v Speaker 1>to do what we need them to do. Yes, well, Stacy,

1:18:03.240 --> 1:18:04.760
<v Speaker 1>thank you so much for joining us. I know it's

1:18:04.800 --> 1:18:07.200
<v Speaker 1>a super busy day you have all these live TV hits,

1:18:07.240 --> 1:18:09.040
<v Speaker 1>but we do always appreciate you for checking in and

1:18:09.120 --> 1:18:12.519
<v Speaker 1>keeping us informed. Already, she has a live hit in

1:18:12.680 --> 1:18:16.919
<v Speaker 1>five minutes. Let me get one. I got one morning, Stacy.

1:18:17.439 --> 1:18:20.879
<v Speaker 1>You are a VP hopeful. People say Stacey was campaigning

1:18:20.920 --> 1:18:23.120
<v Speaker 1>for the job. Was that over the case, and if so,

1:18:23.479 --> 1:18:26.040
<v Speaker 1>how do you feel today? I never campaigned for the job.

1:18:26.040 --> 1:18:29.839
<v Speaker 1>I answered questions, and apparently being honest is not supposed

1:18:29.840 --> 1:18:34.280
<v Speaker 1>to happen. I don't believe in denying my ambition because

1:18:34.360 --> 1:18:36.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm not just speaking for myself. I'm speaking for every

1:18:36.200 --> 1:18:39.360
<v Speaker 1>black and brown girl who's ever wanted more and people.

1:18:39.600 --> 1:18:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I can't assume people will give me the benefits of

1:18:41.560 --> 1:18:45.160
<v Speaker 1>the doubt. I've got to give myself the platform, and

1:18:45.160 --> 1:18:46.599
<v Speaker 1>if you ask me a question, I'm going to give

1:18:46.640 --> 1:18:48.799
<v Speaker 1>you an answer, and I've always tried to be candid,

1:18:49.080 --> 1:18:50.960
<v Speaker 1>and I was candid. Then let's remember I got the

1:18:51.040 --> 1:18:54.200
<v Speaker 1>same question starting in March of twenty nineteen, the only

1:18:54.320 --> 1:18:56.920
<v Speaker 1>person who was asked that question over and over again

1:18:56.960 --> 1:18:59.680
<v Speaker 1>for eighteen months, and my answer never changed. It's just

1:19:00.120 --> 1:19:02.800
<v Speaker 1>started paying attention. All right, Well, Stacey, we appreciate you

1:19:02.880 --> 1:19:05.400
<v Speaker 1>for checking in. Thank you so much. Thank you you guys,

1:19:05.600 --> 1:19:09.599
<v Speaker 1>eight to six hour vote, Get it done. All right? Now,

1:19:09.800 --> 1:19:12.120
<v Speaker 1>we got rumors on the way, yes, and bad news

1:19:12.200 --> 1:19:15.000
<v Speaker 1>for Genie May. She has been hospitalized and has to

1:19:15.120 --> 1:19:17.360
<v Speaker 1>leave Dancing with the Stars. We'll tell you what you

1:19:17.439 --> 1:19:19.439
<v Speaker 1>had to say, all right, we'll get to that next.

1:19:19.520 --> 1:19:25.320
<v Speaker 1>It's the Breakfast Club. Go Morning, the Breakfast Club. This

1:19:25.720 --> 1:19:34.560
<v Speaker 1>is the rumor report with Angela Yeast Club. Well. Timberland

1:19:34.640 --> 1:19:37.040
<v Speaker 1>posted a picture of Joda see on the cover of

1:19:37.160 --> 1:19:39.320
<v Speaker 1>Vibe magazine and said this group changed R and B.

1:19:39.520 --> 1:19:42.960
<v Speaker 1>Y'all will soon see hashtag versus who would you like

1:19:43.080 --> 1:19:46.439
<v Speaker 1>to see Joda see battle? I love Joda see I

1:19:46.479 --> 1:19:48.320
<v Speaker 1>mean Joda see could battle any of the groups I

1:19:48.400 --> 1:19:50.960
<v Speaker 1>mean the drew Hills of the World, the Jagged Edges,

1:19:51.280 --> 1:19:54.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the Jaggets, did one twelve? Did one twelve?

1:19:54.960 --> 1:19:56.479
<v Speaker 1>So I guess the only who did I just say,

1:19:56.520 --> 1:19:58.400
<v Speaker 1>other than one twelve? Jacket Edge, Who'd I say? You

1:19:58.439 --> 1:20:01.000
<v Speaker 1>said Drew Hill? But yeah, Jodi and Drew Hill would

1:20:01.000 --> 1:20:04.040
<v Speaker 1>be a good one. No one, Why not? DA has

1:20:04.080 --> 1:20:07.200
<v Speaker 1>so many Rember. I'm a Joda see guy all day.

1:20:07.240 --> 1:20:09.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm you know, Joda ce plays in my crib on

1:20:09.160 --> 1:20:12.519
<v Speaker 1>a regular daily, weekly whatever. But I think Jodi Drew

1:20:12.600 --> 1:20:15.240
<v Speaker 1>Hill wouldn't be bad. I saw people saying boys to men.

1:20:15.400 --> 1:20:17.720
<v Speaker 1>I saw a lot of that. Nah boys, the men

1:20:17.840 --> 1:20:21.080
<v Speaker 1>didn't have those Um, I don't think boysman had those

1:20:21.120 --> 1:20:25.200
<v Speaker 1>cultural anthems like Jodac had boys. Men had big commercial records.

1:20:25.720 --> 1:20:28.080
<v Speaker 1>Well yeah, well they had End of the Road. That's

1:20:28.080 --> 1:20:31.439
<v Speaker 1>a big commercial record. Yeah, and you know, you know

1:20:31.520 --> 1:20:33.519
<v Speaker 1>your mighty right. I don't know who could really battle

1:20:33.600 --> 1:20:36.280
<v Speaker 1>Joda see around the end of the Road. Now it's

1:20:36.280 --> 1:20:38.160
<v Speaker 1>like riding with the windshield wife was going and it

1:20:38.200 --> 1:20:40.120
<v Speaker 1>ain't even raining, you know what I mean? Like Yan,

1:20:40.800 --> 1:20:43.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there's nobody the northern groups of Blackstreet or

1:20:43.120 --> 1:20:46.680
<v Speaker 1>New Edition, and you know I mean that one Drew

1:20:46.760 --> 1:20:48.720
<v Speaker 1>Hill would be the only thing that makes sense to

1:20:48.800 --> 1:20:52.480
<v Speaker 1>me against Joda. See all right, Well, Genie May was hospitalized.

1:20:52.520 --> 1:20:54.960
<v Speaker 1>She has a thrill condition, and she was forced to

1:20:55.040 --> 1:21:01.480
<v Speaker 1>leave Dancing with the Stars. She said, this absolutely devastated

1:21:01.720 --> 1:21:07.360
<v Speaker 1>that my journey on Detimate starsend this way. I found

1:21:07.400 --> 1:21:12.760
<v Speaker 1>out that I have a throat abscess where my tonsils

1:21:12.880 --> 1:21:15.759
<v Speaker 1>and my throat had gotten so infected that it started

1:21:15.800 --> 1:21:18.400
<v Speaker 1>permeating to the rest of the areas behind my neck

1:21:18.439 --> 1:21:21.920
<v Speaker 1>and my ears. That I had to get emergency surve

1:21:21.960 --> 1:21:24.720
<v Speaker 1>for you, which is why I'm here now. Everything went gray.

1:21:25.640 --> 1:21:28.120
<v Speaker 1>One more day, your throat would have closed up now.

1:21:28.160 --> 1:21:30.760
<v Speaker 1>Her dance partner also put out a video message to

1:21:30.920 --> 1:21:33.519
<v Speaker 1>saying that they were devastated by the news. So she

1:21:33.560 --> 1:21:35.840
<v Speaker 1>won't be able to compete this season because of these

1:21:35.920 --> 1:21:38.960
<v Speaker 1>health concerns. Fortunately, it seems like she'll be okay. So

1:21:39.080 --> 1:21:41.599
<v Speaker 1>lout to Genie. I'm glad she caught that throat condition,

1:21:41.800 --> 1:21:44.080
<v Speaker 1>and I wonder what causes that, and I hope we

1:21:44.160 --> 1:21:45.960
<v Speaker 1>don't find out. Genie. Now you mean you're glad you

1:21:46.040 --> 1:21:52.799
<v Speaker 1>caught it early. I'm glad she caught her throat condition

1:21:52.920 --> 1:21:55.920
<v Speaker 1>early so she could do something about it. Um, And

1:21:56.080 --> 1:21:57.920
<v Speaker 1>I just wonder what causes that. I hope we don't

1:21:57.960 --> 1:21:59.920
<v Speaker 1>find out Genie Ma was walking around the house doing

1:22:00.080 --> 1:22:02.920
<v Speaker 1>Jeez's ad libs. And you know that that russho something

1:22:03.000 --> 1:22:06.479
<v Speaker 1>in her throat. All right, now, Chrissy Teagan has gotten

1:22:06.479 --> 1:22:09.160
<v Speaker 1>a tattoo and that's honoring her late son Jack. So

1:22:10.000 --> 1:22:12.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, unfortunately for her would have been the third baby.

1:22:12.960 --> 1:22:16.000
<v Speaker 1>The baby died in just twenty weeks. She now has

1:22:16.040 --> 1:22:18.880
<v Speaker 1>made sure he'll always be remembered with the tattoo of

1:22:19.040 --> 1:22:21.960
<v Speaker 1>his name on her wrist. So a lot of people, actually,

1:22:22.040 --> 1:22:24.360
<v Speaker 1>after she posted that, a lot of her fans started

1:22:24.400 --> 1:22:26.719
<v Speaker 1>posting photos of tattoos they got to honor loved ones

1:22:26.760 --> 1:22:31.400
<v Speaker 1>that they lost as well. Wow, yes, and the legends

1:22:31.960 --> 1:22:35.120
<v Speaker 1>all right. Monique said that Whoopie Goldberg told her to

1:22:35.240 --> 1:22:37.920
<v Speaker 1>get rid of her husband. And here's what she had

1:22:37.960 --> 1:22:39.680
<v Speaker 1>to say. As she was talking on out Loud with

1:22:39.760 --> 1:22:42.479
<v Speaker 1>Claudia Jordan on Fox Soul, and she said to me,

1:22:42.960 --> 1:22:45.000
<v Speaker 1>it's your husband. You gotta get rid of your husband.

1:22:45.040 --> 1:22:48.000
<v Speaker 1>And I said, Whoopie, my husband negotiated the biggest deals

1:22:48.000 --> 1:22:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I've had in my career, along with our attorney, Ricky Anderson,

1:22:51.240 --> 1:22:54.200
<v Speaker 1>two black men. And she went dead silent, and then

1:22:54.320 --> 1:22:57.080
<v Speaker 1>she said, you better stop worrying about that little girl

1:22:57.160 --> 1:23:00.120
<v Speaker 1>coming behind you, and you better worry about you. At

1:23:00.120 --> 1:23:02.479
<v Speaker 1>that moment, I knew Whoopi Goldberg wasn't worried about me

1:23:02.720 --> 1:23:05.720
<v Speaker 1>because I'm the little girl coming behind her. So you

1:23:05.840 --> 1:23:08.960
<v Speaker 1>can't go againsist machine. And because your husband is a

1:23:09.080 --> 1:23:12.519
<v Speaker 1>proud black man and he wants answers that they cannot give,

1:23:12.880 --> 1:23:15.040
<v Speaker 1>you need to let him go. That's what that black

1:23:15.120 --> 1:23:17.519
<v Speaker 1>woman was saying to me. In addition to that, she

1:23:17.680 --> 1:23:19.880
<v Speaker 1>says that she does not regret the drama that she

1:23:20.040 --> 1:23:23.519
<v Speaker 1>had with Lee Daniels, Tyler Perry, and Oprah. She said

1:23:23.560 --> 1:23:26.760
<v Speaker 1>she keep on speaking her truth and fighting for her

1:23:26.800 --> 1:23:28.760
<v Speaker 1>family as long as she has breath in her body.

1:23:28.840 --> 1:23:30.680
<v Speaker 1>And she said that whole ordeal did cost her and

1:23:30.720 --> 1:23:33.880
<v Speaker 1>her family millions of dollars and generational money, but she

1:23:33.960 --> 1:23:35.880
<v Speaker 1>wants to make sure the matter does get resolved. She's

1:23:35.920 --> 1:23:38.000
<v Speaker 1>not going to stop until it does. You know, I

1:23:38.080 --> 1:23:41.480
<v Speaker 1>had a friend tell me yesterday that Monique is absolutely

1:23:41.640 --> 1:23:45.439
<v Speaker 1>right in regards that everything she says about Oprah, Tyler Ferry,

1:23:45.479 --> 1:23:48.680
<v Speaker 1>and Lee Daniels liked. They said, Monique told them from

1:23:48.720 --> 1:23:52.320
<v Speaker 1>the beginning she wouldn't be able to travel for that movie,

1:23:52.360 --> 1:23:54.439
<v Speaker 1>and they knew that. I don't know what's true or

1:23:54.520 --> 1:23:56.320
<v Speaker 1>was that. I'm just saying, I'm just giving a different perspective.

1:23:56.360 --> 1:23:58.720
<v Speaker 1>That's what somebody said to me yesterday. All right, Well

1:23:58.760 --> 1:24:02.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right, Well,

1:24:02.080 --> 1:24:04.840
<v Speaker 1>let me ask you guys a question. Jody see, what

1:24:04.880 --> 1:24:08.559
<v Speaker 1>about TLC or s w V. What what about them?

1:24:08.960 --> 1:24:12.360
<v Speaker 1>A bad versus battle? That'd be dope? No? Well, no,

1:24:12.840 --> 1:24:14.600
<v Speaker 1>I would like to see them against s w V.

1:24:14.760 --> 1:24:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I think that's a good matchup. Maybe they had a

1:24:16.600 --> 1:24:20.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of s w V. Wouldn't be bad. That actually

1:24:20.160 --> 1:24:23.160
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't be bad. Joda C versus I would like that, Yeah,

1:24:23.240 --> 1:24:24.800
<v Speaker 1>because I'm a big fans of both of them. I

1:24:24.840 --> 1:24:27.719
<v Speaker 1>don't know who I would pick, Tony Tony Tony TLC

1:24:29.479 --> 1:24:34.800
<v Speaker 1>us versus. I'm here for that. I'm here for Joda

<v Speaker 1>C versus Tony, Tony Tony versus s w V. I like.

1:24:40.880 --> 1:24:42.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I like that. Who do you have?

1:24:42.720 --> 1:24:44.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna tell you why. I like that because they

1:24:44.439 --> 1:24:47.320
<v Speaker 1>both had freaky songs, you know what I'm saying, And

1:24:47.360 --> 1:24:50.240
<v Speaker 1>it'd be like a dope at home date night type

1:24:50.280 --> 1:24:53.200
<v Speaker 1>of versus battle. I like that I like Joda ce

1:29:01.479 --> 1:29:03.479
<v Speaker 1>have got to talk to Stacy a little longer. Had

1:29:03.479 --> 1:29:06.920
<v Speaker 1>a couple more questions for Stacey a super busy day

1:29:06.960 --> 1:29:08.560
<v Speaker 1>for her, I guess because of what she does and

1:29:08.760 --> 1:29:11.320
<v Speaker 1>vote to suppression and fair fight. I know it's been

1:29:11.400 --> 1:29:15.000
<v Speaker 1>a crazy time. And also from South Carolina, Jamie Harrison

1:29:15.080 --> 1:29:17.679
<v Speaker 1>checked it as well. Jamie Harrison, he's running for senator

1:29:17.760 --> 1:29:20.240
<v Speaker 1>in South Carolina. Man, please make sure y'all going vote

1:29:20.280 --> 1:29:22.600
<v Speaker 1>for Jimmy Harrison. Let's get Lindsay Lady bud Graham up

1:29:22.600 --> 1:29:25.400
<v Speaker 1>out of there. All right, Well you got a positive note. Well,

1:29:25.520 --> 1:29:27.479
<v Speaker 1>I don't really have a positive note. It's just more

1:29:27.520 --> 1:29:30.160
<v Speaker 1>of a statement. I said it early in the show,

1:29:30.320 --> 1:29:32.240
<v Speaker 1>and I want to expound on it just a little bit,

1:29:32.360 --> 1:29:34.120
<v Speaker 1>like we have no idea what the world is going

1:29:34.200 --> 1:29:36.960
<v Speaker 1>to look like after the day, but just know, whatever happens,

1:29:37.000 --> 1:29:40.240
<v Speaker 1>it's all God's will. As my late great friend Jasmine

1:29:40.320 --> 1:29:43.320
<v Speaker 1>Jazz Fly Waters used to say, trust God to God. Okay,

1:29:43.320 --> 1:29:45.920
<v Speaker 1>if Republicans win black people, we got work to do.

1:29:46.200 --> 1:29:48.280
<v Speaker 1>If Democrats win black people, we got work to do.

1:29:48.360 --> 1:29:51.200
<v Speaker 1>The illusion of America has been revealed to everybody this year,

1:29:51.479 --> 1:29:54.160
<v Speaker 1>and this system was considered normal has never worked for

1:29:54.240 --> 1:29:57.120
<v Speaker 1>all of us. So tonight, regardless of who wins, it's

1:29:57.160 --> 1:30:01.320
<v Speaker 1>really nothing to celebrate. Trump administration wins, gonna keep community building,

1:30:01.439 --> 1:30:04.439
<v Speaker 1>job creating and dealing with politics on a local level

1:30:04.520 --> 1:30:06.880
<v Speaker 1>and supporting those who choose to engage, you know, with

1:30:06.960 --> 1:30:09.920
<v Speaker 1>that administration on our behalf, and you know, vice versa.

1:30:10.040 --> 1:30:12.519
<v Speaker 1>If Democrats win, you know, nearly one hundred million people

1:30:12.560 --> 1:30:15.400
<v Speaker 1>have voted already. Who knows what that walk up is

1:30:15.400 --> 1:30:17.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna be like today, But once again, regardless of what

1:30:18.200 --> 1:30:21.760
<v Speaker 1>happens tonight, it's nothing to celebrate. So I guess the

1:30:21.880 --> 1:30:25.000
<v Speaker 1>moral of the story is simply, Black people, we got

1:30:25.080 --> 1:30:27.880
<v Speaker 1>work to do. Preface club pitches, you know, finish a

1:30:28.000 --> 1:30:28.400
<v Speaker 1>y'all done,
