Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to WIKA f Daily with
Speaker 1: me your girl, Danielle Moody, recording once again from the
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Bunker. Folks. This week, my god, the second week
Speaker 1: of January twenty twenty two. You know, I think that
Speaker 1: this week maybe the end of the Biden administration. And
Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you for the duration of this
Speaker 1: show that I found myself today really thinking about what
Speaker 1: we voted for. You know, I have been replaying, as
Speaker 1: I'm certain many of you have been doing over the
Speaker 1: past year, replaying the last several years in your head,
Speaker 1: particularly our push and our fight on this show, on
Speaker 1: other places, on other shows, in writing that I did
Speaker 1: to get people out to vote, to get people to
Speaker 1: recognize the urgency of the times that we were living in,
Speaker 1: and that Donald Trump and the Republican Party or a
Speaker 1: dangerous cult. They are a dangerous cult that every day
Speaker 1: has worked to weaponize health pandemic, work to weaponize fear,
Speaker 1: have done everything within their power and outside of their
Speaker 1: power to destroy America. You know, for the last couple
Speaker 1: of years, the picture has been so clearly painted as
Speaker 1: to who these people are and what they want, and
Speaker 1: yet the mainstream media continues to act utterly surprised, like
Speaker 1: they are completely caught off guard by what it is
Speaker 1: that Republicans are aiming for, and they are telling you
Speaker 1: every day out loud. You're at Kevin McCarthy, that's spineless,
Speaker 1: translucent jellyfish. Get up in a pressor yesterday where he
Speaker 1: lambasted once again their favorite pinata. Nancy Pelosi talked about
Speaker 1: playing politics where I'm like, bitch, where are you like?
Speaker 1: I can't stand the fucking term playing politics. Politics is
Speaker 1: a fucking game like everything else. And that's what you're doing,
Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy, when you came out on the floor scared
Speaker 1: shitless right following the one six insurrections, talking about how
Speaker 1: this lands squarely on the shoulders of Donald Trump, only
Speaker 1: to run sniveling to kiss his rain down in Mara Lago.
Speaker 1: But a few weeks later, you are playing politics when
Speaker 1: you decide right that the Marjorie Taylor Greens and the
Speaker 1: Lauren Baubert's are going to be the anointed ones of
Speaker 1: your caucus of your party, right, that you are not
Speaker 1: going to condemn any actions that promote violence or xenophobia
Speaker 1: or racism, or in fact spread lies about a deadly
Speaker 1: health pandemic where our hospitals are once again at their
Speaker 1: breaking point, which I will talk about the Biden administration
Speaker 1: deciding to deploy medical army personnel to six states in
Speaker 1: order to battle against the search. But you are a
Speaker 1: part of a caucus, Dear sir, you are the leader.
Speaker 1: And I put that in fucking air quotes because I
Speaker 1: don't know where he's leading anybody except to a buffet
Speaker 1: at Mara Lago, A leader of a caucus that has
Speaker 1: been perpetuating lies. Right, we keep talking about how these
Speaker 1: people are going to be remember it in history books
Speaker 1: that will most likely be burned because that's the environment
Speaker 1: that we are living in. It is so dark where
Speaker 1: we are right now that I don't know which way
Speaker 1: we walk in or run in in order to get out.
Speaker 1: But I can tell you that the end of this
Speaker 1: week had me thinking to myself self, what the fuck
Speaker 1: did I waste so much energy for? Why did I
Speaker 1: tell people, my family, friends, you all listeners out there,
Speaker 1: go vote? Register people. This is important. Your life depends
Speaker 1: on it. Only to have this administration cut short a
Speaker 1: year into its four year term, not by Republicans, no
Speaker 1: by members of their own party, by traders. You know
Speaker 1: who those traders are, the ones that are outspoken. Kirsten
Speaker 1: Cinema and Joe Mansion. Kirsten Cinema found it appropriate to
Speaker 1: give a press conference ahead of the President's arrival to
Speaker 1: Capital Hill, which, let me just tell you, I know
Speaker 1: that we are so far away from normal times, but
Speaker 1: let me tell you that in no space and time
Speaker 1: is that ever appropriate. You have often heard of people
Speaker 1: after they meet with the president, after the President addresses them,
Speaker 1: to then speak out on what it is that was
Speaker 1: said and how they feel about it, but never before
Speaker 1: unless you were a member of the other party. So
Speaker 1: I want people to get a big picture as to
Speaker 1: who Kursten Cinema and Joe Mansion are. Let's stop referring
Speaker 1: to them as moderates because they or not. They are obstructionists.
Speaker 1: They are political insurrectionist. Right. They may not have stormed
Speaker 1: the Capital, right, they may not have gotten zip ties
Speaker 1: and build gallows, but they absolutely with their actions and
Speaker 1: with their words, are doing so every single day. As
Speaker 1: we lead into midterms with Democrats having nothing to fucking
Speaker 1: show for it, the President's agenda is finished. There will
Speaker 1: be no build back better And when progressives said, do
Speaker 1: not decouple the Infrastructure building bill from Build Back Better,
Speaker 1: because we're never going to get them past that. They
Speaker 1: need to stay together. But no, the President wanted a
Speaker 1: quick win. Oh, Joe Mansion is operating in good faith.
Speaker 1: I said this this week on Woke Wednesday. How many
Speaker 1: times does somebody have to spit in your face to
Speaker 1: call you everything but a son of God for you
Speaker 1: to recognize that that person is not your friend, that
Speaker 1: they are your enemy. How many times is Joe Mansion
Speaker 1: gonna have a gaggle of reporters around him spewing some
Speaker 1: bullshit about tax credit, spewing some bullshit about process before
Speaker 1: people call him what he is, a fucking liar and
Speaker 1: a treasonous piece of shit. I want Joe Mansion and
Speaker 1: Kirsten Cinema shunned. I want them stripped of their committee assignments.
Speaker 1: I want people to go after their biggest donors and
Speaker 1: start to refer to those individual donors or those corporations
Speaker 1: as racist as Bill Connor two point zero. I tweeted
Speaker 1: this yesterday. My three step plan, I said, if I
Speaker 1: were in power, I would be running an all out
Speaker 1: media onslaught against Joe Man in Kursten cinema. They would
Speaker 1: not be able to walk into a fucking store, They
Speaker 1: would not be able to walk into a bathroom stall,
Speaker 1: They would not be able to go anywhere without hearing
Speaker 1: the cries and the screams of people telling them that
Speaker 1: they are racist, telling them that they are killing our democracy,
Speaker 1: telling them that they are both putting the nail in
Speaker 1: the coffin of America. Then I would go after Like
Speaker 1: I said, they're donors and the donor class, and much
Speaker 1: in the same way that Color have changed. A couple
Speaker 1: of years ago, uncovered the right wing secret weapon of
Speaker 1: alec Right that was doing all of putting together the
Speaker 1: backdoor policies that then were magically appearing in state and
Speaker 1: local levels, voter suppression laws right thinking that they are
Speaker 1: going to buy people off right by day and then
Speaker 1: come and steal their vote by night. That is a
Speaker 1: quote from the president of Color of Changer, Sean Robinson.
Speaker 1: And I say this because it is not enough to
Speaker 1: just go after these people. It's not enough to just
Speaker 1: send off some hot tweets. You have got to hit
Speaker 1: them where they hurt. And the only place that they
Speaker 1: care about is their bank accounts. They don't give a fuck.
Speaker 1: This is why I said, and I'll say it again,
Speaker 1: Joe Mansion and Carson Cinema are political prostitutes. And then
Speaker 1: people wanted to come from me, oh, don't talk about
Speaker 1: sex workers. Shut the fuck up, because you know, good
Speaker 1: god damn well, that ain't nobody trying to degrade anybody's
Speaker 1: sex work, which is why I said political prostitutes. They
Speaker 1: are turning tricks for those that are giving them the
Speaker 1: most money. What do you call that if not a whore.
Speaker 1: So I'm hired right of the whole carrot approach of
Speaker 1: this administration and other Democrats in leadership referring to these
Speaker 1: people as your friend. They are not. You are literally
Speaker 1: sleeping with the enemy right now, and it's about time
Speaker 1: that everybody take the fucking kid gloves off, Everybody throw
Speaker 1: out their rose colored glasses and pay attention to what
Speaker 1: is happening. This administration is dead in the fucking water.
Speaker 1: They might as well be fucking hall monitors right now.
Speaker 1: In democracy, they're just there to have the illusion that
Speaker 1: there is some type of order and protection, but they
Speaker 1: really have no fucking authority. When the President of the
Speaker 1: free fucking World comes out after a meeting and says,
Speaker 1: will I don't know if we're going to be able
Speaker 1: to get this done. Tell me more about executive power,
Speaker 1: because it seems to me that the executive branch only
Speaker 1: has power, unlimited, unwielding power when it is a Republican president,
Speaker 1: it's a democrat. Ah well, I don't know what we
Speaker 1: can do about that. So I'll just go back to
Speaker 1: the White House, right and play with my dogs, or
Speaker 1: put together a really heartfelt speech and slam my hand
Speaker 1: down on the desk and add some affect to it
Speaker 1: so people think that I mean business, but I do nothing.
Speaker 1: I'm done with the fucking pageantry. Yesterday, the Department of
Speaker 1: Justice finally did something right with regard to the insurrectionists
Speaker 1: for the first time, right in this year long fucking
Speaker 1: journey that we have been on right to hold those
Speaker 1: that try to overthrow our government. And and you know,
Speaker 1: here's the other thing too, is that mainstream media continues
Speaker 1: to say, oh, they tried to overturn an election. They
Speaker 1: weren't just trying to overturn an election, right because once
Speaker 1: it in language matters, they were trying to overthrow the government, right,
Speaker 1: that's what they were doing. So for the first time,
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice, according to the New York Times
Speaker 1: and every other outlet that has been covering it, has
Speaker 1: charged the leader of the oath Keepers right. His name
Speaker 1: is Stuart Rhodes. They charge Stuart Rhodes and other members
Speaker 1: of the Oath Keepers with seditious conspiracy right seditious conspiracy.
Speaker 1: I want to tell you, and this is why I'm
Speaker 1: sitting in a new location today so that i have
Speaker 1: access to my computer. But I want to read for
Speaker 1: you the definition right of seditious conspiracy. Seditious conspiracy if
Speaker 1: two or more persons in any state or territory, or
Speaker 1: in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United
Speaker 1: States conspire to overthrow, put down, or destroy by force
Speaker 1: the government of the United States, or to levy war
Speaker 1: against them, to oppose by force the authority thereof right,
Speaker 1: or to prevent to hinder right the operations of said government.
Speaker 1: Stewart Rhodes let me tell you a little bit about Stuart.
Speaker 1: And I think that this is important, not because I'm
Speaker 1: trying to do any sort of docuseries or any sort
Speaker 1: of drive of empathy, but I want us to understand
Speaker 1: who these people are, not in the way that the
Speaker 1: mainstream media wants you to understand. But here's the thing myself,
Speaker 1: including for years, have loved to say that the people
Speaker 1: that follow Donald Trump, the people that are far right right,
Speaker 1: are these under educated, right toothless buffoons who live in
Speaker 1: the rust belt, that are Bible, that lack education, lack
Speaker 1: any skills, and so it's easier for them to lop
Speaker 1: on to the lies that are spread by the Republican Party.
Speaker 1: With regard to who is responsible for their lat in life,
Speaker 1: it is immigrants coming to steal their jobs, it's black
Speaker 1: people in affirmative action, it is anything other than themselves,
Speaker 1: you know, because you can never have really white people
Speaker 1: be responsible for their own actions and their own life.
Speaker 1: It is always somebody else that needs to be at fault.
Speaker 1: And that is what Donald Trump has tapped into. That
Speaker 1: is what the Republican Party, by virtue of Donald Trump
Speaker 1: being their puppet, that is what they have tapped into.
Speaker 1: But this is a thing that we don't want to
Speaker 1: have a conversation about because we of course love to
Speaker 1: treat white people as individuals, as a part as opposed
Speaker 1: to a part of a community and or group. They
Speaker 1: get to be individual lone wolfs, They get to be
Speaker 1: individually pulling themselves up from their bootstraps, but they never
Speaker 1: get assessed as a collective. And that is the fucking problem.
Speaker 1: Stuart Rhodes is nobody's dummy. Stuart Rhodes is a former
Speaker 1: Army paratrooper who, according to The New York Times, went
Speaker 1: on after being in the Army, to earn a law
Speaker 1: degree from Yale. And why do I say that, because
Speaker 1: the actions that were put into play well ahead of
Speaker 1: January sixth, Because what the Department of Justice and what
Speaker 1: cable News is pushing out are the tweets not the tweets,
Speaker 1: excuse me, the signal thread, the encrypted signal threads of
Speaker 1: conversations between Stuart Rhodes and other members of the Oath Keepers.
Speaker 1: Because folks, what were they creating on said day? What
Speaker 1: were they leading up to? Oh, they were creating an
Speaker 1: entire military operation, you see, the Oath Keepers. While their membership,
Speaker 1: as they say, is open to everybody, who they are
Speaker 1: looking for are ex military or current military, law enforcement
Speaker 1: and first responders. From a text that was sent on
Speaker 1: December eleventh, weeks before January sixth, Stuart Rhodes essentially said
Speaker 1: that if Joe Biden was going to be certified as
Speaker 1: president of the United States. Then what would ensue would
Speaker 1: be bloody. Okay, what the New York Times has reported
Speaker 1: they have charged this is at quote it's members not
Speaker 1: only with forcing their way into the building and in
Speaker 1: a military style stack, which is a formation, right, but
Speaker 1: also with stationing an armed quick reaction force at a
Speaker 1: hotel in Virginia to be ready to rush into Washington
Speaker 1: if needed. So what reports are saying right now is
Speaker 1: that Stuart Rhodes, the head of the oath Keepers, was
Speaker 1: not in the Capitol building. But as Merritt Garland had
Speaker 1: said in his very tepid Milktoast speech, that he gave
Speaker 1: that regardless of whether you were in the Capitol Building
Speaker 1: on that day or not, or on the grounds at all,
Speaker 1: that you were still going to be charged because, as
Speaker 1: he said, right, they were laying the foundation. And to me,
Speaker 1: here's the thing. If I'm laying a foundation, I'm going
Speaker 1: after the heaviest sentences possible. Like I get it. He
Speaker 1: wants to move this as a Glenn Kirshner, as our
Speaker 1: friend says, as a Rico case, right, where you go
Speaker 1: after like the street hustlers, right, if you're looking at drugs,
Speaker 1: you go after the street hustlers, Right, you pin them
Speaker 1: and then you have them flip, and then that person flip,
Speaker 1: and that person flip, and that person flip, until you
Speaker 1: move your way up to the kingpins. Right, Except we
Speaker 1: already know who the fuck these kingpins are, right, We
Speaker 1: don't need anybody to be idd We know because they
Speaker 1: were all on the ellipses on January six and they
Speaker 1: were giving speeches, and then we already have the phone records.
Speaker 1: Are the members of Congress who are also coordinating with
Speaker 1: those that would attempt to overthrow the government. What I
Speaker 1: want folks to understand here is that this wasn't a
Speaker 1: wayward group of tourists, right. This wasn't MAGA tourists run wild.
Speaker 1: This was a strategic, planned out attack, weeks if not months,
Speaker 1: if not year in the making in order for us
Speaker 1: to get to January sixth. We all want to believe,
Speaker 1: and the media has allowed themselves to run with the
Speaker 1: lie that people got swept up in the moment, that
Speaker 1: they you know, they got caught up by domestic terrorism.
Speaker 1: That Karen and Chad, you know, your mailman, your police officer,
Speaker 1: your pastor, they just you know, got caught up with excitement. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: These people, the Oath Keepers, the Proud Boys, the Boogaloo Boys,
Speaker 1: all of these organized membership groups that are filled with
Speaker 1: current and active, current active and retired right law enforcement
Speaker 1: military first responders. They created a strategic plan. They had
Speaker 1: waukie talkies and earpieces. They had stashed weapons around Washington,
Speaker 1: d C. And Virginia and I'm certain in Maryland as well.
Speaker 1: They had coordination, they had surveillance and eyes. They had plans.
Speaker 1: So while Donald Trump's war room, led by Steve Bannon
Speaker 1: and Juliani, were looking at all of the legal machinations
Speaker 1: and all of the ways to thwart the counting, to
Speaker 1: thwart the certification on January sixth, and how they were
Speaker 1: going to right not certify the election, get Mike Pence,
Speaker 1: and if Mike Pence fails, then we're going to move
Speaker 1: down the line. They also had their foot soldiers, like
Speaker 1: these organizations that Donald Trump, him fucking South told on
Speaker 1: national television to stand back and to stand by, ready
Speaker 1: and armed and waiting to attack. What do you call
Speaker 1: that if not a fucking coup? What do you call that?
Speaker 1: If not seditious conspiracy? What do you refer to that?
Speaker 1: If not treason? How is it that we do not
Speaker 1: have these lawyers at the Department of Justice just running
Speaker 1: back Donald Trump's own words, Oh, we don't know what
Speaker 1: he meant. He fucking told you what he meant. Let's
Speaker 1: stop trying to pretend that we don't know. I said
Speaker 1: this too on Twitter yesterday because I you know, there
Speaker 1: are just some days where I am utterly beside myself,
Speaker 1: honestly utterly beside myself, And yesterday was one of those
Speaker 1: days where I'm listening to cable news hosts say, well,
Speaker 1: what do you think that they were going to do
Speaker 1: with that heavy artillery? Why do you think that they
Speaker 1: were dressed in the way that they were. I always
Speaker 1: love the soft balling and performance of neutrality and ignorance
Speaker 1: around white people's violent actions. I'm gonna keep saying white
Speaker 1: folks because I wanted to be beat into everybody's head
Speaker 1: that if this was any other fucking group, there would
Speaker 1: have been a drone strike on that fucking house. They
Speaker 1: wouldn't have casually brought out the leaders of any black
Speaker 1: Muslim Latin X organization who is literally preparing for war
Speaker 1: and just you know, say, casually read them their rights
Speaker 1: and then you know, make sure that they've dotted all
Speaker 1: of their eyes and tees and then you know, indict them.
Speaker 1: They would have killed them, they would have blown them up,
Speaker 1: and America would have celebrated. That's the reality, you see,
Speaker 1: because when these agencies in the nineteen sixties were wire
Speaker 1: tapping Martin Luther King and Malcolm Axe and doing coordinated
Speaker 1: efforts and attacks against the Black Panther Party, and mind you,
Speaker 1: there is no equivalency here. I just want you to
Speaker 1: see what America has done to those leaders and activists
Speaker 1: that have been at the forefront of fighting for justice
Speaker 1: and dignity and jobs and respect. They have beaten them,
Speaker 1: they have raped them, they have murdered them, they have
Speaker 1: hung them, they have bombed them. And then the mainstream news,
Speaker 1: which is complicit in all of it, just chooses not
Speaker 1: to cover it so that the larger white American public
Speaker 1: can claim ignorance right and the black community. Black Americans
Speaker 1: can feel fucking gasolate on a regular basis because you see,
Speaker 1: we know the truth, because not knowing the truth puts
Speaker 1: us in danger. White America, not knowing the truth allows
Speaker 1: them to exist in some type of moral Disneyland where
Speaker 1: they get to believe that they are so good and
Speaker 1: so righteous and so pure, and it's everybody else that
Speaker 1: is violent and criminal and heathens, because that's all you
Speaker 1: are fucking fed. Right. You don't know about the bombs
Speaker 1: that were dropped in recently as nineteen eighty six in Philadelphia,
Speaker 1: You just learn about that now. You don't know about
Speaker 1: the tanks that we're rolling through communities right in LA
Speaker 1: on the drug war, right, and what they've been doing,
Speaker 1: what they have been doing since the beginning of time.
Speaker 1: But when it comes to white America's patterns and foundation
Speaker 1: of violence, right and hate and anti government sentiments, they're
Speaker 1: treated like upstanding citizens who still have rights. They have
Speaker 1: more rights under indictment and being charged with seditious conspiracy
Speaker 1: than any innocent black person walking the street today. That
Speaker 1: should make us all sick, regardless of your hue. It
Speaker 1: should make us all sick that we see blatantly now
Speaker 1: how this country operates. It's all about the rule of
Speaker 1: law when we're talking about white people. Oh you know this,
Speaker 1: and this sentence, by the way, if actually going to
Speaker 1: trial and convicted, only holds up to twenty years. Right,
Speaker 1: But you will find any maneuver, any undercover law to
Speaker 1: sentence Let's say a truck driver who made an accident, right,
Speaker 1: it was an accident that occurred, but you'll sentence him
Speaker 1: to one hundred and ten years. So it's always like, well,
Speaker 1: the law says that we can only do acc and
Speaker 1: I said, m that's funny because you always seem to
Speaker 1: be able to find maneuvers and loopholes around the law
Speaker 1: when you decide to throw the book at black and
Speaker 1: brown people and then get fucking celebrated for it. Miss
Speaker 1: me with the bullshit. The more that I read about
Speaker 1: Stewart Rhodes and the Oath Keepers, the more I'm confused
Speaker 1: about how these people have not been broken up and
Speaker 1: thrown in jail from the get go. How were these
Speaker 1: groups just allowed to operate and organize in broad daylight.
Speaker 1: Their whole premise is to create small militias in order
Speaker 1: to overtake states and essentially secede from the United States
Speaker 1: of America by force if necessary. They are saying everything
Speaker 1: out loud, and yet we still find White America scratching
Speaker 1: its head, going I wonder what they were planning to
Speaker 1: do to fucking kill the Vice President, to find whatever
Speaker 1: members of Congress that they wanted to execute them and
Speaker 1: then to reinstate Donald Trump and then get pardoned and
Speaker 1: probably get Congressional Medals of Freedom as patriots. That's what
Speaker 1: the fuck they were doing. You know, America is not
Speaker 1: just in trouble. America is done. And that's the thing
Speaker 1: that I realize every single day. And I was having
Speaker 1: this conversation with my producer Andrew, and you know, we
Speaker 1: go back and forth on a regular basis, like what
Speaker 1: are we doing, what are we offering? And I said,
Speaker 1: you know, the question that we're asking is it is
Speaker 1: America over right? Is democracy done? And deep down I
Speaker 1: will tell you yes, yes it is. Twenty twenty was
Speaker 1: our last free and fair election. America as a democracy,
Speaker 1: one that you grew up in, is finished. But the
Speaker 1: reality is we have to keep fighting. We have to
Speaker 1: fight for the scraps that are left, and we have
Speaker 1: to fight for future generations. This is our fight, right,
Speaker 1: this is what we are tasked with doing. And we
Speaker 1: do not have the luxury to throw up our hands
Speaker 1: and say that we are done, and to say that
Speaker 1: it's done. So I'm not going to do anything anymore
Speaker 1: because that is what they want. Create chaos, create mayhem,
Speaker 1: exhaust the public. Then they'll turn away from government altogether,
Speaker 1: because they'll see that there's no difference but from one
Speaker 1: party to the next, and then you can run rough
Speaker 1: shot over the country. Republicans are already telling you what
Speaker 1: they are doing when they take back power. Right, They're
Speaker 1: going to impeach Joe Biden. They're going to impeach Nancy Pelosi.
Speaker 1: They're going to take away committee chairs. They're going to
Speaker 1: do whatever they can to censure and fire and kick
Speaker 1: out and create one party rule. They're not offering how
Speaker 1: they're going to get us out of this global health pandemic.
Speaker 1: They're not offering how they're going to turn the economy around.
Speaker 1: They're not offering how they're going to secure safety nets. No,
Speaker 1: that shit is out the window. This is about retribution. Right.
Speaker 1: They want you to be terrified. They want you living
Speaker 1: in fear. They want to be able to do and
Speaker 1: harm whomever they want, whenever they want, however they want.
Speaker 1: Because they have the courts, they have the cops, they
Speaker 1: have the Congress, they have everything. But they don't have
Speaker 1: our fight and they don't have our will. And let
Speaker 1: me tell you something, it is not our elected officials
Speaker 1: that are going to get us out of this, Right,
Speaker 1: America is headed for more increasingly dark and I mean
Speaker 1: midnight dark times. We may be in this space for
Speaker 1: years to come, decades even, but the pendulum will swing back,
Speaker 1: and we will do so violently. I have said many
Speaker 1: a times that things will get bloodier before they get better.
Speaker 1: This shit that the oath keepers and the Buggaloo Boys
Speaker 1: and the Proud Boys have been up to over the
Speaker 1: past five years, this shit is real. When Dissantis in
Speaker 1: Florida holds a pressor and tells you that he wants
Speaker 1: to create his own army of Florida right that will
Speaker 1: only listen to him, won't be dictated to or funded
Speaker 1: by the federal government. This is who the fuck he
Speaker 1: is talking about. These are the people that he wants.
Speaker 1: When you have members of Congress at say we have
Speaker 1: more bullets on our side, when they are putting up crosshairs,
Speaker 1: when they are asking why can't I carry my nine
Speaker 1: millimeter on the floor of the house, it's my American right.
Speaker 1: Violence is their oath they are telling you, They are
Speaker 1: telling us. You know Aimin Mohadeen, who has been a
Speaker 1: guest on WOKF a couple of times over the years
Speaker 1: and is an MSNBC host and host of the podcast
Speaker 1: I Think American Radical, which is incredible. Tweet it this week.
Speaker 1: Who is in charge of America? Right now? Who is it?
Speaker 1: Who is in charge? Because you can't tell me it's
Speaker 1: Joe Biden. You can't tell me it's Kamala Harris, you
Speaker 1: can't tell me it's Democrats. Who the fuck is in charge?
Speaker 1: Who is running things? Right? It's like the parents left town,
Speaker 1: never to be heard from again. The house has been
Speaker 1: tossed over, right, things have been stolen. There's crap everywhere, drugs, liquors,
Speaker 1: fucking you know, shit on the walls. Who the fuck
Speaker 1: is in charge of this place? Right now? We are
Speaker 1: in embarrassment, an embarrassment. America used to be the place
Speaker 1: that folks pointed to for better or for worse, right
Speaker 1: because we had the biggest mouse and the best pr
Speaker 1: This is who we want to be, This is what democracy.
Speaker 1: He looks like they are looking at us right now
Speaker 1: and saying, whoa Well, that was a good two hundred
Speaker 1: and seventy year run. But this shit is over. Bad
Speaker 1: news begets bad news because not only did Joe Biden
Speaker 1: and his administration gets shown up by the likes of
Speaker 1: that denim vest wearing Kursten cinema. But the Supreme Court
Speaker 1: also smacked them down this week as well. Right, the
Speaker 1: Supreme Court pets blocked the Biden administrations vaccine mandate for
Speaker 1: private companies, large companies that have over a hundred employees
Speaker 1: one hundred plus, which would have mandated vaccinations for eighty
Speaker 1: million Americans. Well, the conservative bought Supreme Court has said,
Speaker 1: oh well, osha, Right, the Office of Safety and Health
Speaker 1: doesn't have that level of authority to be able to
Speaker 1: demand that private employers with a hundred plus employees mandate vaccinations. Now,
Speaker 1: they can choose to do so on their own, but
Speaker 1: it can't be mandated by the federal government because they say, oh,
Speaker 1: that would take an active congress. Well, we know how
Speaker 1: dysfunctional congresses and we also know that on this six
Speaker 1: to three conservative court. Where did we think that this
Speaker 1: was going so interesting to me? All of the things
Speaker 1: that the president can't do when you have a conservative
Speaker 1: six to three court. But you can lock children in cages, right,
Speaker 1: You can decide not to provide them with sanitary conditions. Right.
Speaker 1: You can block certain countries into coming in here because
Speaker 1: you don't like their racial makeup. And their religion. You
Speaker 1: can ban people from being able to vote, but no,
Speaker 1: when it comes to this conservative court, the president apparently
Speaker 1: has no authority. Now, they did uphold the mandate on
Speaker 1: healthcare workers and so my thing because they said right
Speaker 1: in the decision that this was too broad of a stroke.
Speaker 1: Will then tell me, Biden administration, why you didn't come
Speaker 1: up with right a rebuttal that was about at least
Speaker 1: service facing businesses right, your Delta's right, your airlines, your restaurants,
Speaker 1: your big box stores like Walmart and Target. Why did
Speaker 1: you not make it about public facing employees, customer service
Speaker 1: based professions and industry that you are mandating because they
Speaker 1: are interfacing on a regular basis with the public. Why
Speaker 1: it was necessary for these people to be vaccinated instead
Speaker 1: of this broad stroke? Who the fuck is not paying
Speaker 1: attention to this court right now and the decisions that
Speaker 1: they are making, and who is making them? Who still
Speaker 1: has faith and justice? John Roberts to quote unquote do
Speaker 1: the right thing? Get the fuck out of here again.
Speaker 1: How many times do people have to do wrong by
Speaker 1: you for us to realize they are evil people? We
Speaker 1: got a Supreme Court right now that is made up
Speaker 1: of sexual predators, liars, and thieves. That's who's dictating the
Speaker 1: law of the land to the people. Give me a
Speaker 1: fucking break. So this administration this week is batten zero right, right,
Speaker 1: is batten fucking zero. Right Now, you have broadcasters asking, well,
Speaker 1: if build back Better is out, if voting rights ain't
Speaker 1: getting done, So what is it that Democrats are running on?
Speaker 1: Will maybe there'll be these small procedural policies that they
Speaker 1: can put forth. If you are not running on the insurrection,
Speaker 1: on intimidation, on lies, on fascism, if you can't even
Speaker 1: put together the pr campaign that is going to paint
Speaker 1: the other guy as essentially Hitler in a red tie,
Speaker 1: Hitler in a red hat, then you really have lost it,
Speaker 1: and you have lost my faith. Right, we are not
Speaker 1: doing great. Let me say that again. We as a country,
Speaker 1: right on in this January fourteen, this fourteen days, two
Speaker 1: whole weeks into twenty twenty two, we are not doing great.
Speaker 1: We are losing. And I hate to, you know, lay
Speaker 1: it out like that. But if they're building if the
Speaker 1: radical right is building militias right, which they've been doing
Speaker 1: in the open for decades, If they're building militias, if
Speaker 1: they are training people on military strategy. If they are
Speaker 1: getting ready and January sixth was just a training exercise,
Speaker 1: think about it like this. If January sixth was just
Speaker 1: a training exercise, what do you think they're coming with next?
Speaker 1: And what is it that Democrats are doing in response,
Speaker 1: waving their finger, talking about history, slamming their hands on
Speaker 1: a desk. What are they doing to stop the assault?
Speaker 1: Because first is the Cold War, which is really what
Speaker 1: happened during the Obama years. Right, I'm going to make
Speaker 1: him a one term president, said Duck Bill Platypus. He
Speaker 1: said it again with the Abiden administration called himself the
Speaker 1: grim reaper. Republicans lined up behind Mitch McConnell, Donald Trump
Speaker 1: up the ante, stand back and stand by. Go take
Speaker 1: your capital back, Go take your country back. What are
Speaker 1: you a bunch of whimps? Real men? Take up guns.
Speaker 1: This is not a loose group of knuckleheads. These are
Speaker 1: elite trained militias that are willing to do whatever whenever
Speaker 1: they get the call. So are we going to sit
Speaker 1: around and wait for that not to come to our door?
Speaker 1: Are we going to sit around and pretend that elections
Speaker 1: alone matter anymore in this climate? Or are we going
Speaker 1: to have finally a come to Jesus fucking moment and
Speaker 1: recognize that we are under threat, that we are at war,
Speaker 1: and that the battle lines have clearly been drawn. Whether
Speaker 1: or not we choose to believe it or not, it
Speaker 1: is happening. We are in the midst of a civil war, folks,
Speaker 1: and they are knuckling up right now, and our Department
Speaker 1: of Justice and this administration has taken their sweet ass time.
Speaker 1: If we do not lock these people up in mass
Speaker 1: at this moment, if this administration does not own this
Speaker 1: as victories for democracy and use that because they ain't
Speaker 1: got nothing else to campaign on, we are toast. The
Speaker 1: question that I'm asking is who is paying attention, who
Speaker 1: is in charge? That is it for me today, folks,
Speaker 1: on this Friday, as always, Power to the people and
Speaker 1: to all the people. Power, Get woke and stay woke
Speaker 1: as fuck.
