1
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to wok F Daily with

2
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:20,279
Speaker 1: Meet Your Girl Daniel Moody recording from an unknown bunker

3
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: because I am on the road, folks, I want to

4
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:29,479
Speaker 1: start off today with Donald Trump over the weekend on

5
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: Meet the Press and him talking about the fact that

6
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 1: he is going to end birthright citizenship. And I have

7
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: to be honest with you. I've said this before, but

8
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: a lot of what this administration is about is shock

9
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: and awe is, you know, disrupting nervous systems and creating

10
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: fear and anxiety and anger. It's like a consistently being

11
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: on air with a shock like that is what they

12
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: want because they get off on the level of fear

13
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: and anxiety that they're able to produce. And the fact

14
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 1: of the matter is that Donald Trump, as President of

15
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: the United States, does not have the power to end

16
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: birthright citizenship. That is outlined in the Constitution. And even

17
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: though we know that there have been a number of

18
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: federal judges that were appointed to do Donald Trump's bidding,

19
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: we also have to remember that judges are actual people

20
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: who want their legacies to remain intact, who actually believe

21
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: in the rule of law. And so while they may

22
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: have been appointed by Donald Trump. The fact is is

23
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: that they took an oath to the Constitution as well.

24
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: And when pressed on a lot of topics, what does

25
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: Donald Trump continue to say, Oh, we have concepts of

26
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: a plan. I have to remind myself when I get

27
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: into a place of deep anxiety and fear about what

28
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: is to come, and folks, this is not me trying

29
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: to minimize the fear or concerned that people have, because

30
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,359
Speaker 1: I know that it is very real and we do

31
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: know what happened in the first administration. But I think

32
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: that it is important to be reminded that these people

33
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 1: are fucking idiots and that they actually don't know how

34
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: government works. They don't care to know how government works,

35
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: and the things that they think that they're just going

36
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 1: to be able to do at the snap of the

37
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: finger is not going to happen. That there are going

38
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: to be a mountains of court cases and blockades that

39
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: are put in their place in order to stop or

40
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: slow down a lot of the actions that they want

41
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: to take that go against the constitution of these United States.

42
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: And you know, while we are watching as governments around

43
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 1: the world crumble, as in Syria, that are becoming non

44
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 1: functional as in France and that are teetering on authoritarianism

45
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: as is happening here. We are witnessing that the people

46
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: right have more power than we are being led to believe.

47
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 1: And it's why I end my shows with power to

48
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,399
Speaker 1: the people and to all the people power because if

49
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: we as people actually recognize that these autocrats, that these

50
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: want to be autocrats, are actually afraid of the people

51
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: that they are supposedly here to represent, then we recognize

52
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: that they can't oppress us without our consent. We have

53
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: to go along with the get along of their bullshit

54
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: in order for their way to happen. Right like, we

55
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: have to believe that while there is no rule of law,

56
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: while the people have no power and they can do

57
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: whatever they want, and if that is what they allow

58
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: us to believe, what they make us believe, then yeah,

59
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: they are going to get their way. But at the

60
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: end of the day, no one can oppress you without

61
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: your consent. And so collectively we have to understand the

62
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: power that we have in this moment to slow this administration,

63
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:24,720
Speaker 1: this regime down and recognize that while they're talking about

64
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: starting things on day one, that there are also right,

65
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 1: whether it be the deport mass deportation. There are whole

66
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 1: industries that will crumble if, in fact that happens. And

67
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: there are also protocols, checks and balances that have to

68
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: happen in order for this mass deportation plan to take place.

69
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: There are laws that have to be put in place,

70
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: there are policy measures that have to be passed. Again,

71
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 1: none of this happens because Donald Trump thinks that he

72
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 1: is fucking bewitched and can wiggle his nose and then

73
00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you know, everything just goes all one.

74
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: That's not how it works. And I think that we

75
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: need to be reminded consistently of that fact. I have

76
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: a bone two pick, and it is one that I

77
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: am just. I am so fucking outdone. And I tell

78
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: you that every time that I think that Democrats have

79
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,919
Speaker 1: reached a new low, right like, every time that I

80
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: think that they can't show their spinelessness, they can't show

81
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: an even more that they are not built for this moment. Boy,

82
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: do they like go above and beyond to prove to

83
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: people that they are not built for this moment? But

84
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: can somebody fucking explain to me why Jim Clyburn had

85
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: the audacity to say that Joe Biden should pardon Donald

86
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: Trump so that we can have a clean slate. And

87
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 1: who is the we that he is talking about, because

88
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 1: I can tell you that there are people black people

89
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: sitting inside of federal prisons that deserve to be pardoned

90
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: for trumped up charges that they have been held on.

91
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is a fucking criminal. And so I am

92
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: so confused about why Jim Clyburn, a man that has

93
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 1: been in Congress for as long as he has been,

94
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 1: that has worked with many of the administrations, would stare

95
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 1: down the American people and say that Joe Biden should

96
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 1: go ahead and pardon Donald Trump because somehow that would

97
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: excuse the stealing of documents, the inciding of an insurrection.

98
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: I have to tell you that this is why, this

99
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: is why seven million people sat home. This is why

100
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 1: people look at the Democratic Party and they say that

101
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 1: you are no better, and why you have these Democrats

102
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,359
Speaker 1: that are so busy trying to either chase Republicans or

103
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: chase the center that no longer exists, rather than rooting

104
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: themselves in progressive policies and ideas that the people actually

105
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 1: want that are actually popular. To pardon Donald Trump would

106
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: just to be just to state fully and unapologetically that

107
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: we are not a nation of laws. Because how is

108
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: it that Brazil is able to hold their former president

109
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: accountable and guess what, their entire country doesn't collapse, right,

110
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 1: How is it that other nations who have had criminal

111
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: presidents are able to hold them accountable? But here in

112
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 1: the United States that is supposed to be somebody's beacon

113
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: of democracy. That we're saying to you, no, no, no,

114
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: overlook all of it. And in order to give America

115
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: a clean slate, we must deny the truth about who

116
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is, right, because that's how the rule of

117
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: law works. It is beyond disappointing. It is at the

118
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: point of absolute disas gust that I find myself with

119
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party in this moment. And this is why

120
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: I continue to say, these people are not built for

121
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: this moment and it is time for them to retire.

122
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: There is no center when you have one party that

123
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: is built of extremists. Democrats are proving that they are

124
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: not extreme enough in their progressive ideas, that they are

125
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,679
Speaker 1: not pushing enough for the people. And that's why seven

126
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: million people stayed home, because they say, I see no

127
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,319
Speaker 1: difference between you all and frankly, I want to opt

128
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: out of this system. Unfortunately, the fact of the matter

129
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: is is that if you don't have a voice in

130
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: this system, your non vote was a vote for Donald Trump.

131
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: So we all know who pay attention that his win

132
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: was nobody's landslide and nobody's mandate. But the fact of

133
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: the matter is is that those seven million votes they

134
00:08:53,559 --> 00:09:00,120
Speaker 1: were absolutely fucking needed. But instead of going after the

135
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 1: American people and saying that we need you to understand

136
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: not what is that danger, but what we are doing

137
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: to make your day to day life better. What we

138
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: are offering, what this economy that was turned around after

139
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: Donald Trump bottomed it out because of his response to COVID.

140
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: This is what Democrats are doing, and this is what

141
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 1: we will push on so that we can be the

142
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: model in the world and not the laughing stock. I

143
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: want to switch gears for a moment and talk about

144
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: the ways in which America is a laughing stock, and

145
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 1: that is around our healthcare system. So we see right now,

146
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 1: as allegedly the man who committed the murder and killed

147
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: the CEO of United Healthcare, we see the reaction that

148
00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 1: people have had right I've talked about it. It is wild.

149
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: It shows you how dark of times we are living

150
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: in one where jokes are made about the murder of

151
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: a CEO. But it also shows you how fucking harmful

152
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: our healthcare system is towards millions of Americans. That man

153
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: Brian Thompson, as president, overseeing an over three hundred billion

154
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: dollars over three hundred and fifty billion dollar budget, was

155
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:41,239
Speaker 1: responsible for denying claims of thirty one point five million Americans,

156
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 1: sick Americans who are paying into what I can only

157
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 1: refer to as one of the biggest fucking Ponzi schemes,

158
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: which is our healthcare system. Why do I call it

159
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 1: a Ponzi scheme because you either pay out of pocket

160
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: every single month or your employees pays out of pocket,

161
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: only to have insurance companies take your fucking money and

162
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: then deny you coverage and have the ability to say,

163
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: oh no, we're going to cover this but not this,

164
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: which is why millions of people go bankrupt when an

165
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: unexpected illness befalls them or their family. Why in this

166
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 1: country of supposed abundance are people being forced to do

167
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 1: go fundmes in order to pay for necessary surgeries, in

168
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 1: order to pay for medication most industrialized countries have universal

169
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: health care, but in America we make it as complicated

170
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: as possible so that the CEOs of these companies that

171
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 1: have the ability to deny your claims to decline them,

172
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 1: can make as much money as possible. That is why

173
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 1: people reacted the way that they did, because if you

174
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: kill one person, as I saw stated, you're a murderer.

175
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: But you kill hundreds of thousands of people, oh well,

176
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: you're providing quality for your shareholders. It's sick and it's twisted,

177
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 1: and the darkness in people's response to this act of

178
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 1: violence shows you that healthcare is actually something that we

179
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 1: can all unite around because there isn't a person that

180
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: does not have a story that is heartbreaking or terrifying

181
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 1: or anger inducing that involves chasing down your insurer in

182
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 1: order to get coverage of basic shit. So you know,

183
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 1: I do not unlike corporate mainstream media, I am not

184
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: wronging people for their reactions and their responses to this

185
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:57,319
Speaker 1: murder because what it illuminates is a much bigger problem

186
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: And maybe instead of these CEOs now looking for security,

187
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: maybe you should actually think about your fucking practices that

188
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: are harming people as opposed to helping them. It's wild

189
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 1: to me that you would get into an industry that

190
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: is supposed to be about providing healthcare to people and

191
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 1: you're getting high fived and celebrated for denying millions. It's

192
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 1: disgusting and it is it is deplorable, but we have

193
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,959
Speaker 1: just lapped it up in this country as well. That's

194
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: the way. No, it is not. It's the way until

195
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: it isn't. And maybe this is the eye opening moment

196
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: where people, you know, across party lines recognize that, yeah,

197
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 1: you know what, why don't we have universal health care

198
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: in the United States? Why am I supposedly needing to

199
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: be woken up in the middle of a fucking surgery

200
00:13:55,240 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: because oh, Blue Cross, Blue Shield didn't want to extend

201
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: the anesthesia that you had because your surgery was running along.

202
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: You see how they quickly reverse that decision. But they

203
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: try and find these insurance companies try and find any

204
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: way to screw people who are spending hundreds, if not

205
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,479
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars if you're in a family on healthcare.

206
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: It makes absolutely no sense. And I'll tell you that

207
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: when I was covering this on the Daniel Moody Show

208
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: and on others, that people who listen from around the world,

209
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: from Australia, from the UK, from Canada, where like, we

210
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: don't get it. We don't get it, and it's disgusting

211
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 1: and we are so sorry for you all. And I'm like,

212
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: until Americans begin to demand better and also let go

213
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: of the illusion that somehow America is better than other nations,

214
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: when what is coming into our site is that we've

215
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 1: been lied to, we have been bamboozled, we have been

216
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: fed this line that America is exceptional, and it is not.

217
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 1: It is actually exceptional in its cruelty. It is exceptional

218
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: in its hate. It is exceptional in its low quality

219
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: public education. It is exceptional in its obesity problem and

220
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: its mental health crisis and its gun problems. Right, you

221
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: can list out the ways in which America is exceptional,

222
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 1: and a lot of them are fucking terrible. What I

223
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: have continued to say about America is that we have

224
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: the best pr of any country, because when you're actually

225
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: here and you visit someplace else and realize that, why

226
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: does our infrastructure look the way that it does. Whenever

227
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: I see these memes of high speed trains in Europe,

228
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 1: or in Japan or in other and they'll say, oh,

229
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 1: my god, such and such country is in the future. No,

230
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 1: they're not. America is just living in the nineteenth century.

231
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: Everyone else has created policies, infrastructure right in a way

232
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: that is forward thinking. America, however, in too many instances,

233
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: is living and existing in the past. And we are

234
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: at a moment, at a critical moment, when we have

235
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: a new administration coming in that has no imagination right,

236
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: that is not interested in innovation, that is not coming

237
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: from a place of abundance, that it's going to be

238
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: operating from a place of scarcity and pushing America to

239
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 1: fall further behind. We live inside of a global society,

240
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 1: and this idea that, oh, America first, when America is

241
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 1: literally last in global metrics of so many things, is embarrassing,

242
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 1: but it's also incredibly ignorant. So well, I don't wrong

243
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 1: people for the feelings that they have expressed on social media,

244
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 1: because it is again a symbolic of a much deeper

245
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: problem that we have in this country that we refuse

246
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 1: to address, and we are at a breaking point. And

247
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 1: what I believe is that look, this administration that is

248
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 1: coming in, they are coming in with a hammer to

249
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: damage as many things, as many agencies our spirit as

250
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,919
Speaker 1: much as they possibly can. But I will reiterate what

251
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: I said at the top. No one can oppress you

252
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: without your consent. And we still have the Constitution of

253
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: the United States, We still have the rule of law,

254
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 1: and we still have the will of the people, and

255
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: we need to exercise that and think about what does

256
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 1: our resistance look like moving forward. That is it for

257
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: me today, dear friends on WOKF as always, power to

258
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 1: the people and to all the people. Power, get woke

259
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 1: and stay woke as fun
