1
00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 1: What's good, straight shooters. This is Tesla figure Girl checking

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: in to discuss the week ahead. Today is Monday, February

3
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 1: two thousand twenty one. Well, I told you that Republicans

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: will stand firm for Donald Trump. I know many of

5
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: you wanted to feel optimistic, but I'm hoping that you

6
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: start to see things as they are and not how

7
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,479
Speaker 1: they should be. On the day that the terrorists attacked

8
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: the Capitol, Lindsey Graham said that Trump was wrong and

9
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: that he was over it. Well, now he's flipped like

10
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,639
Speaker 1: a mattress because over the weekend he said that he

11
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 1: spoke to President Trump directly and he knows that Republicans

12
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: cannot win without Trump supporting them. This is why I

13
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 1: repeat that we must stop wasting time wearing about if

14
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: Republicans are going to unify with us. The only thing

15
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: that we control are those that we elect. So we

16
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: must put pressure on President Biden to push the line.

17
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: No more hoping for unity. Yes, okay, if he wants

18
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: to restore the soul of America. But I'm not worried

19
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: about the soul because that's God's business and President Joe

20
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: Biden is not God. But when it comes to politics,

21
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,040
Speaker 1: the only thing that we can control is the substance.

22
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: So now that the impeachment trial is over, Republicans are

23
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: already organizing right now for two thousand, twenty two midterms.

24
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: So we must get busy. I'm gonna do everything I

25
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: can on my part, and I hope that you do

26
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 1: the same. The New York Times reports that this week

27
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: President Joe Biden will push for his one point nine

28
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 1: trillion dollar stimless bill, and then he'll move on to infrastructure, immigration,

29
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: climate change, and other major priorities. Well that's all good,

30
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: but when I saw the article said that he will

31
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: be moving on to other priorities. I hope that that

32
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: other includes directly affecting the black community. And yes, I

33
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 1: understand that black people will benefit from a stimulus package

34
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: and all the things that I named, So miss me

35
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: with getting in the comments saying Biden's gonna help us all.

36
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: I get that. But when Joe Biden was running in

37
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: the primary, he said quote that he knew black people

38
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: would have his back in South Carolina. So the same

39
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: way he quoted and called at our community by its name,

40
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,399
Speaker 1: I want to see the same thing in policy this Wednesday.

41
