It was a brunch. It was a Was 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:16.200 it a brunch? Yeah, it was a little bunch of that. Yeah. 0:02:16.280 --> 0:02:19.440 For they were honoring black actresses of Hollywood and then 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:23.400 the main two words Nissy Nash, Bets and Shirley Ralf. 0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:27.000 It was at the Rich Carlton and lag Lagona Hills. 0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:32.120 It was actually a nice eving Marina del Ray. You 0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:34.679 don't know where it is, so you know nothing but 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:36.560 long bees. That's all I know. If it wasn't for 0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:40.760 ways and GPS, I'd be lost for real. Uh. And 0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:43.200 it was nice. We had look, we had tomatoes with 0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:46.280 salad dressing. They call it bruschetta, but it was tomatoes 0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:52.440 with salad dress. I'm just talking about. It was actually 0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:54.800 really nice event. It was a bunch of celebs. They 0:02:55.080 --> 0:02:58.280 posted some pictures on social media. I met the murder 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:02.280 h I met my Gail Bean so that's jail funds 0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:06.280 uh Nicolson. I met Gail Bean. I took a picture. 0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:09.320 I'm telling the highlight of the entire event for me, Lauren. 0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:13.240 The highlight of the entire event was meeting the living 0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:15.280 legend and taking a picture with her, which is the 0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:18.640 lady Marla Gibbs. She was so nice and so kind 0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:24.799 and still funny at one years young. Yeah, I'm actually 0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:27.480 really glad that I got to meet her as well. Um, 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:31.560 she was quite the sweet individual. So mmm, I say 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:34.520 we were taking a picture. She said, what happy new year? Baby? 0:03:34.560 --> 0:03:36.320 I said, what happy new year? And smiley wee getting 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:38.680 up there? And what were we now? Ninety? She says, baby, 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:40.520 I'm thirty years old. I said, well, you still got 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:44.360 your time. And she was the cardinal sin and asked 0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:45.960 the black woman her age. You know, people get in 0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:49.520 trouble for that child as long as I asked long 0:03:49.560 --> 0:03:51.880 as she asked me my name, because I would really confused. 0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:53.480 I think she thought I was a girl. I wasn't 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:54.920 gonna tell her no different I was. I was in 0:03:55.000 --> 0:03:59.680 my lady like oh Beverly Hills Housewives, the Beverly Hills 0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:02.560 meets house Husbands of Hollywood. I was a combo owner. 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:07.440 It was nice and your auntie was so eloquent. Um, Auntie, 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:10.880 it's Vnessa bell Callaway and she was between the nessa 0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:14.320 Belle Callaway on the microphone and Nisi Nash Bett's mother. 0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:16.240 That was the life of the party for me. Both 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:18.360 of them were horiot to me on the mic they 0:04:18.360 --> 0:04:20.880 were the best. Yeah, they were funny and I didn't 0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:24.479 know that. Um, Jessica Betts could sing so well. She 0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:27.800 has a beautiful voice. Um, you know, that's very my 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:30.120 type of I had as much money as this Nisy 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:32.919 and more, a little bit more titties. Hey you be 0:04:32.960 --> 0:04:38.120 in trouble girl. She was very Jessica remember me from Chicago, 0:04:38.560 --> 0:04:41.479 And Uh, the only reason I probably didn't try to 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:44.080 Matt two in Chicago because in Chicago she was a 0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:49.080 lot more girly. She was a lot more feminine. I 0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:51.960 just love the fact that they truly do love each other. 0:04:52.000 --> 0:04:55.599 The way that Jessica serenaded miss Nias nash Best was beautiful. 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:59.039 So um And I know they didn't win necessarily their 0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:03.159 category on Tuesday, but just to talk about their careers 0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:05.240 and all their contributions and how they've helped all these 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:07.920 young black women in Hollywood was really beautiful. So I'm 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.240 glad they were celebrated on Sunday. It was It was 0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:13.839 really beautiful for them. Shout out to um, to William 0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:16.359 for putting the function together for them. He said he 0:05:16.400 --> 0:05:20.680 did that in what four days? It was and everybody 0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:24.120 was so pleasant. Sharon Leo was nice. You know, they 0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:25.680 came around to the table. We had some nice people 0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:27.359 at our table. So it was a nice function. So 0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:30.440 kudos to them. Surely did not win the award, but 0:05:30.480 --> 0:05:34.240 abde element you did snatch, so kudos and so that 0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:38.080 Um James is it James Willie Tyler what's his name? 0:05:38.160 --> 0:05:44.680 James Tyler Tyler, James and uh um quinck girl, I'm 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:47.479 seeing the dress, but not her idea of her dress. 0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:50.240 Let me just say that I love Quinta Brunchon's dress 0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:54.320 because it was so such a cute dress. My favorite 0:05:54.400 --> 0:05:57.040 dress of all the award show last night was M 0:05:57.200 --> 0:06:00.040 M J. Rodriguez. I love that blue bowl and that 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:03.640 worked because she is real thin. My wad ass that 0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:07.240 my hips would have been watter than that boat. I 0:06:07.279 --> 0:06:10.200 think there was actually, I would say among us, like 0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:13.560 the black folks with the golden gloves. I pretty much 0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:16.440 loved everybody's outfits. I think Angela Bassett looked very regal 0:06:16.480 --> 0:06:21.080 and beautiful. Um Jay Ellis's wife her um and I'm 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:24.040 sorry to remember her name. But her dress was gorgeous 0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:27.400 as well. Quintin looked beautiful, Verne Cox look beautiful in 0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:30.640 her dress. Um, I don't really love the Vernie's hair 0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:33.599 though the dress. I liked the Verni's dress because it 0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:35.800 was it wasn't showing enough really no skin. I know 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:38.840 sometimes she goes forward. But I loved that wig on her. 0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:42.080 I loved her hair. Yeah, I think she looked beautiful too. 0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:45.640 So um, but I know you gotta talk about it. 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:47.520 Go ahead, what do you think of the host? You know, 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:50.920 because you're the biggest critic, So who was the host? 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:53.960 Did they have one show? Did they have a home? 0:06:55.839 --> 0:06:57.680 That's what I think about it. Did they have a host? 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:03.120 That's what I think about I thought that as a 0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:05.800 responsible comedian that you're supposed to read the room for 0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:09.080 whatever arena you're working. And I thought that Gerard Comc 0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:11.760 was quite irresponsible as a comedian by not reading the room. 0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:14.440 I thought some of his stuff was cringe e uh, 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:17.120 so many people in the audience and even at home 0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:20.160 what seemed to be uncomfable. I was very uncomfortable with 0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:22.320 some of his lingo and his language and the direction 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:24.960 that he took at what I thought Lauren as a comedian, 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:27.600 not more so than the host. When he started off 0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:30.320 with his material, even though some of them may have 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:34.400 been factual. When he saw that it wasn't landing, Robert 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:36.880 Frost says, the road not taken. He should have taken 0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:40.320 the other road as a responsible comedian. But the Twitter 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.840 has told him, and he has gotten mixed reviews, but 0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:45.560 a lot more negative than positive. Some stuff just was 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:48.000 not funny. It was that windy Houston joke was as 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:51.000 bad as Kathy Griffin and the Donald Trump joke to meet. 0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:57.440 That was my opinion. But and then you were the 0:07:57.480 --> 0:07:59.920 one who reminded me that that's not even where when 0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:02.800 Houston past, that was a whole different venue. But it 0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:05.680 just it was the moment, and it just some of 0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:08.800 the people's faces in the audience were mortified. But another 0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.160 thing with the Golden Globes, they can actually drink wine, 0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:16.120 so a lot of them probably was bent. Well. I 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:18.560 just feel like, um, well, a lot of people didn't 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:20.440 even know who Gerard Carmichael was because I was looking 0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:22.320 at some of the comments. A lot of people didn't 0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:25.240 even know who he was. And the people that money 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:29.800 and you know, he just for his special but still 0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:32.199 people still didn't know who he was in the comments though, 0:08:32.200 --> 0:08:34.720 which was interesting. But I just feel like some people 0:08:34.760 --> 0:08:38.880 had different expectations for him, like satirical comedy is like 0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:41.760 his thing, like he's he does comedic satire, so I 0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:46.440 feel like people expected something different from him, but I didn't. 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:48.760 So when I saw what he was doing, I was like, Okay, 0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:52.280 I expected this based on watching his special. So I 0:08:52.320 --> 0:08:56.000 will say that though the winning Houston joke was absolutely terrible, 0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:59.280 and I will give him kudos on this front, is 0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:01.520 that he did bring attention to the fact of how 0:09:01.679 --> 0:09:04.600 just racist the Golden Globe was, and it's interesting how 0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:09.000 they pivoted or did degree choice to make sure that 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:11.160 they seemed inclusive this year because they didn't get any 0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:13.760 airtime last year. So I will give him kudos for that. 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:15.559 But this might be the first and the last time 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:18.040 he gets the host and award show, so we'll see. 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:20.599 I thought think his mood was a little monotone. I 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:22.560 thought he was a little flat and dry. And I 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:24.880 think as the host and me and you have discussed 0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:26.839 this before, even when you first met me and hired me, 0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:30.640 I think the host has a great responsibility as far 0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:32.920 as carrying the weight of a show, especially if the 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:35.680 show seems a little lack luster. Now, the show wasn't 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:37.800 lack at all to me. I thought the Golden Globes 0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:41.040 is pretty good. Uh. I love some of the guests 0:09:41.040 --> 0:09:44.160 and some of the presenter's favorite out of everybody, of course, 0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:48.760 was Jennifer Coolish. Jennifer Coolise is just hilarious without even trying. 0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:52.360 That is funny to be. But it was over, you 0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:54.880 know about dry carmache because people saying like he was 0:09:54.960 --> 0:09:57.200 drying everything. I'm like, that's who he is, so like, 0:09:57.360 --> 0:10:00.480 I don't know what other people what people expected, you 0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:02.520 know what I mean. I think it was the length 0:10:02.760 --> 0:10:05.720 that he used, and I just don't think it's like, 0:10:05.760 --> 0:10:08.080 you know, how they tried to take politics when when 0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:10.480 when Trump was the president and they didn't want people 0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:13.800 to speak politically at at other award shows. I think 0:10:13.800 --> 0:10:16.600 what he was doing with the pointing out the racism 0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:19.839 and point was just um may have been too much. 0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:21.920 But then I was informed by else that they may 0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:24.040 have scripted that for him. They may have wanted him 0:10:24.040 --> 0:10:25.920 to do that if the check was good, and it 0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:28.760 could have been self sabotaged. I don't know. Have been 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:30.880 what they wanted. I wasn't there on the other on 0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:32.960 the side of it, as a participant or as an 0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:36.480 audience member or as watching the show. I didn't enjoy it, 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:39.040 but I wasn't oulso didn't get to check. So I 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:41.679 don't know what they paid him to do. But I 0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:47.920 was happy to MJ that that UM was Ryan m J. 0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:50.440 Rodriguez because they did not have the show last year, 0:10:50.480 --> 0:10:53.080 and she did win, the first trans woman ever to 0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:55.640 win Best Actress in the category. So I love that 0:10:55.679 --> 0:10:57.920 he had everyone stand up for her and acknowledge her. 0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:00.920 I thought that was powerful. I thought that spoke volumes 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:04.640 about inclusion and acceptance in this arena. That was greatful. 0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:09.720 That was that was another And you know that's my girl. 0:11:09.880 --> 0:11:12.080 You know that's my baby. You know I know, And 0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:14.480 I just think, UM. I love that Ryan Murphy was 0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:17.760 acknowledged because he truly is. UM. He's almost like a 0:11:17.800 --> 0:11:20.160 genius level for me. He's just a brilliant mind and 0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:24.440 creates and tells so many really good stories. UM. And 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:28.319 I also love that Eddie Murphy was on her too. Yes, Edie, 0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:32.240 Andie looks good and his wife is lovely too, But 0:11:32.600 --> 0:11:34.600 Eddie got his flowers. You know, you know, I love 0:11:34.679 --> 0:11:38.600 me some Beverly Hills cop Trading places forty eight hours, 0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:40.920 another forty eight hours. So I love that he was 0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:44.920 acknowledged last night too, And it was very funny respustion 0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:46.679 to to come on back, and I just need me 0:11:46.760 --> 0:11:53.800 some ore rescpution Likerbit. He talks about that movie, and 0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:56.000 he said he really had to take a seatback and 0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:58.240 reflecting his career, like what the hell he was doing 0:11:58.280 --> 0:12:00.880 when he after he made Dorbit because he thought it 0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:03.720 was just so terrible. Oh, he had a great time 0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:07.040 making uh nowhere behind he got his life. I gut 0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:08.959 he was having a good time with the costos and 0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:11.280 all on outfit. That was. That was a fun movie 0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:13.120 to me. I can do the nutting professor again too. 0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:15.520 I love the Grandmama bringing Grandmama. I don't need nobody 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:18.440 about the Grandmama and the daddy argued at the dental table. 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:21.720 That was funny to me. But yes, he kudos to Eddie, 0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:24.040 and Eddie broke his Eddie broke it up, and and 0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:27.040 so Eddie made a reference about the three things that 0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:32.440 would keep you in the business longevity and professoralism, your taxes, mind, 0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:37.319 your business and keep will with what at your m 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:39.400 F and mouth. I thought that was hilarious and I 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.360 love the way he did it because after he did 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:43.079 it was a joke and he left off. He didn't 0:12:43.120 --> 0:12:45.079 embark on it and carry it on. It was it was, 0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:48.240 It was fun. It was great. Overall. I enjoyed the show. 0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:50.760 I just did not enjoy the host, not not not 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:54.000 him last night. But I do mind you. I loved 0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:56.120 his stand up. I made a laugh about his time, 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:58.559 but I did not enjoy him last night. Because hosting 0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:02.480 is one thing. End up, it's a whole another entity. Yeah, 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:05.800 so that that's that's That's all I'm saying. Stand up 0:13:05.880 --> 0:13:08.079 the host thing. You should be fun moved the room. 0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:10.439 You are. You are the driver of the bus or 0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:13.839 train when you when you're the host, you control the 0:13:13.960 --> 0:13:17.040 narrative of the energy, You control the fun in the room, 0:13:17.120 --> 0:13:20.000 You control all everything. But I don't know. I think 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:22.800 he got away from him and I think he pushed 0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:25.480 it away from more than anybody else. But it was 0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:27.880 still a great show. Kudos to all the wines's, kudos 0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:30.640 to all the nominees. It was a good shot. You know, 0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:33.000 I'd like to see people dressed up and Brad Pitt 0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:37.520 was there, honey boo, and so was Quentin Tarantino. Quentin 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:40.120 Tarantino called me, I want to be trained. Go ha ha, 0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:45.640 I thought you said, Gerin said. When I said, I tell, 0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:47.079 I'm saying for him to call me I want to 0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:49.080 be trained. Go. He had janego, I want to be trained. 0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:55.400 Gone the wild Wold whist You know they had trains 0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:58.120 women in the wild wild wis trains them everywhere. What 0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:01.920 do you mean? Mm? So yeah, that was that was 0:14:01.960 --> 0:14:04.840 a good show, good clothes all, Okay, where are we going? 0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:08.920 Log Um to a positive note, Um, I just I'm 0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:12.520 happy to see that smar Hamlin is doing much better. Um, 0:14:12.559 --> 0:14:16.439 which out of the hospital. He's back in New York. Um, 0:14:17.000 --> 0:14:19.120 and he's breathing on his own. And it doesn't it 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:22.840 doesn't seem as if now that his um injury has 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:26.920 been any serious, you know, detriment to his his neurological system. 0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:29.880 So if I'm glad to see that he's back, UM, 0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:34.000 prayer world and everybody was praying for that young man. 0:14:34.160 --> 0:14:36.480 Prayer works. I appreciate that. I'm glad he's back. I 0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:38.640 hope he makes a full recovery and get back to 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:41.040 that football field and get his super Bowl ring. That's 0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:44.160 what he wants, that's what he deserved. Yeah, I hope 0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:47.560 that this doesn't. You know, trauma is real, So whatever 0:14:47.640 --> 0:14:52.000 he decides to do, you know, understandably, Um I did 0:14:52.120 --> 0:14:55.960 see that. The Pittsburgh Steelers, though this weekend, received a 0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:58.280 lot of backlash they I don't know if you saw this. 0:14:58.360 --> 0:15:02.040 They have a celebration dance. It's a CPR simulation that 0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:04.280 they do every time, you know, they make a good 0:15:04.320 --> 0:15:07.240 player a touchdown. So they received a lot of backlash 0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:10.320 from being insensitive considering tomorrow Hamlond was just you know, 0:15:10.400 --> 0:15:13.320 basically had to be resustated on the field. So which, okay, 0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:17.280 so we're they doing this dance prior to him, Okay, 0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:20.080 get over it. Get over people. Well, you know, you 0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:22.960 gotta be culturally sensitive to things, considering you know, he 0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:26.520 almost had a near death, you know, injury happened to him. 0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:29.200 So I can understand people saying, you know, maybe this 0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:30.520 is just not the time to do that and be 0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:35.400 sensitive to your football brethren. Makes sense. I get that part, lord, 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:37.400 But if they were doing it prior to and it 0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:40.840 wasn't directed at him, people just making way more out 0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:43.400 of other things. I e. Since we're talking about the 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:45.760 cancel culture and the WoT culture doing all their food. 0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:51.160 Is Ron the Santis, your governor of Florida. My governor 0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:53.640 is Gavin Newsom. I don't know you're talking about. I'm 0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:55.560 not talking about you. I'm talking to all the floor 0:15:55.680 --> 0:16:01.400 Ridians that listen. You. Governor will not have any say 0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:08.160 so or any part in um in Florida. Well, as 0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:11.200 Simone Sanders said the night of the mid terms, you know, 0:16:11.360 --> 0:16:14.200 Florida is a real special so they can have it. 0:16:14.800 --> 0:16:18.400 Florida's real special and not any way. You know, I 0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:22.040 call him the many patent baby orders, real special and 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:24.240 not in a good way. So they can have it. 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:31.440 But if we're gonna just slide into the politics arena UM, 0:16:31.640 --> 0:16:34.680 we can start with good old George Santos, who just 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:38.760 seems to be the popular Republican in the GOP right now. 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:42.040 And not forbid? Is that is that the one is 0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:43.720 let me let me be clear. Is that the part 0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:46.560 from New York who said that he was Jewish, who 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:50.720 said that his family survived survived the Holocaust, and he 0:16:50.920 --> 0:16:53.680 came over on the Nina, the Pinta and the Santa Maria, 0:16:55.800 --> 0:16:58.280 I'm just making up last because he did it. I'm 0:16:58.360 --> 0:17:01.000 just confused as to how he was able to get 0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:03.920 some many lies out. Nobody did any research and he 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:07.879 got elected because he has now admitted that he didn't 0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:10.960 graduate college, he didn't work on Wall Street or in 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:14.840 private equity, he doesn't own property, and isn't Jewish, and 0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:17.560 all of these things he asserted in order to get 0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:21.760 voters and queens and Nasaw County to vote for him. Now, 0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:25.800 is that the irresponsibility of the person he was running 0:17:25.840 --> 0:17:28.880 against or the irresponsibility of the voters who didn't even 0:17:28.920 --> 0:17:33.880 take the time google both? Because say what you want 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:35.520 I do. I'm not gonna sit up here and say 0:17:35.560 --> 0:17:38.879 I research every single candidate that I vote for. In 0:17:39.080 --> 0:17:41.680 those you know, smaller areas where we talk about, you know, 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:45.520 you know somebody in Congressional District three or something like that. 0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:49.200 Sometimes I will just vote, you know, democratically, I will 0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:53.480 admit that, But for the things that I feel directly 0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:56.560 affect me, I'm gonna pay attention to who I'm voting for. 0:17:57.000 --> 0:17:58.720 So or do you just do some research and do 0:17:58.760 --> 0:18:00.919 a little bit of due diligence and who my candidates? 0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:02.880 If I don't know them. I may make a phone 0:18:02.920 --> 0:18:04.879 call and you know, you know, phone a friend or 0:18:04.920 --> 0:18:07.240 from phone a family member be like, hey, what do 0:18:07.320 --> 0:18:09.879 you know about this person? So just the fact that 0:18:09.960 --> 0:18:12.119 all of these lives were able to get in is 0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:15.200 just very baffling to me that nobody knew this until 0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:20.639 after now that he's gotten elected. So that is I 0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:23.160 would say it's white privilege, but he ain't even white. 0:18:25.480 --> 0:18:27.320 I think I think he's Latino. I don't know how 0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:30.040 he identifies, but his name indicates that he is of 0:18:30.160 --> 0:18:35.239 Latino descent. U that he indicates the exact same thing, 0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:37.879 because he is a little toasty, and that's not the 0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:43.320 well the Democrats are basically requesting. Um. The Ethics Panel 0:18:43.359 --> 0:18:48.320 investigates santos is now financial disclosures for possible violation of 0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:51.720 the Ethics and Government the Government Act, which requires officials 0:18:51.760 --> 0:18:55.159 to timely, accurately and completely submit reports. So basically, the 0:18:55.280 --> 0:18:58.280 report is saying that Mr santos Is financial disclosure reports 0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:03.560 in two are sparts are sparse and perplexing. UM. It says, 0:19:03.560 --> 0:19:05.440 at a minimum, it is apparent that he did not 0:19:05.600 --> 0:19:10.240 file timely disclosure reports for his most recent campaign, and moreover, 0:19:10.440 --> 0:19:13.879 he's his own public statements have contradicted some information included 0:19:13.880 --> 0:19:18.720 in financial disclosure and confirmed that the financial disclosure failed 0:19:18.720 --> 0:19:23.800 to disclose other required information. So supposedly what had happened. 0:19:23.840 --> 0:19:27.040 What this is saying is that he campaigned on behalf 0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:32.840 of another GOP person and he took said campaign funds 0:19:32.880 --> 0:19:37.200 to fund his own campaign, which is absolutely illegal. So um, 0:19:37.920 --> 0:19:40.679 now there's this whole ethics complaint that has been filed 0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:43.840 against him, So I guess we'll see what happens. But 0:19:44.320 --> 0:19:46.680 it seems that some of his fellow Republicans are asking 0:19:46.720 --> 0:19:49.440 him to resign. Yeah. I need the Democrats and the 0:19:49.520 --> 0:19:52.320 Republicans not to drag their feet on this, because if 0:19:52.359 --> 0:19:54.680 they don't make a plan example out of him publicly 0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:57.160 and fast, do you know how many other people will 0:19:57.240 --> 0:19:59.439 come up with bullcrap and last to run for all 0:19:59.440 --> 0:20:01.960 of his possibly getting all you have to do is 0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:04.480 a certain way we gotta Well, how about we start 0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:07.600 with the man who really set this emotion? Donald Trump? 0:20:08.960 --> 0:20:11.040 Donald Trump? You want to do it? If we don't 0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:15.040 really talk about it, well, he's still laying ain't no 0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:18.600 taxes being paid and they ain't nothing. So the catalyst, 0:20:18.720 --> 0:20:23.119 that's why you've got people like George Santos now. But 0:20:23.240 --> 0:20:25.719 because they drugged their feet with Donald Trump and they 0:20:25.760 --> 0:20:28.919 are still dragging their feet with ex President Donald Trump, 0:20:29.400 --> 0:20:31.200 it makes it look like it's okay for people to 0:20:31.240 --> 0:20:33.239 do it because they will get away with and they 0:20:33.280 --> 0:20:35.800 won't be vilified. For they may be realified, but they 0:20:35.840 --> 0:20:37.760 won't do no jail time because he ain't went to jail, 0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:41.800 he ain't lost anything. Yeah, he had lost anything. So 0:20:41.920 --> 0:20:43.920 that's what I'm saying. They need to make an example. 0:20:44.080 --> 0:20:45.919 They want to make an example out of us if 0:20:46.000 --> 0:20:48.439 we do something wrong immediately. They need to make an 0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:51.480 example out of him quickly and immediately. And I think 0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:54.720 I think, don't quote me, I'm just saying allegedly. I 0:20:54.800 --> 0:20:56.440 think I read somewhere, but they said that he was 0:20:56.720 --> 0:21:00.720 George Santis was part of the LGBT commim m hmm. 0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:04.040 That would be an interesting development. I'm like, well, that 0:21:04.119 --> 0:21:07.040 ain't gonna be a nice picture for that, because you 0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:09.479 know they label everything. If one do what they all 0:21:09.560 --> 0:21:14.520 do it speaking of interesting comparisons, because you just made 0:21:14.560 --> 0:21:18.280 me think of something. Um. Today it came down that 0:21:18.359 --> 0:21:23.000 Trump's former CFO and friend, dear friend, UM, Alan Weiselberg 0:21:23.520 --> 0:21:26.680 was convicted of tax fraud. Um, he will be going 0:21:26.800 --> 0:21:30.480 to prison for five months, and the hundreds of those 0:21:30.560 --> 0:21:35.880 first days will be spent in records Island, a whole 0:21:36.000 --> 0:21:38.840 five months. We'll see. And this is what I find 0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:42.400 so interesting because now I'm gonna do a comparison between 0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:47.160 Alan Weiselberg and let's just talk about the Chris LEAs. Okay, Now, 0:21:48.600 --> 0:21:52.879 supposedly Alan Weislberg's crimes are much more grave than what 0:21:53.359 --> 0:21:57.200 Todd and Julie Cristley did. But he's getting five months 0:21:57.320 --> 0:22:01.359 compared to the what is it in seven years that 0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:03.600 they're doing between the two, So it's nineteen years between 0:22:03.600 --> 0:22:05.040 the two of them that they have to serve in 0:22:05.119 --> 0:22:12.720 federal jail. So make it makes sense. I'm not a judge, lord, 0:22:12.800 --> 0:22:16.480 I'm not even on the jewelry. I don't know this. 0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:20.000 This is America, and America, this America does what she 0:22:20.119 --> 0:22:23.159 wants to do. Yeah, but it's just like, you commit 0:22:23.320 --> 0:22:27.600
