WEBVTT - State of Rage 0:00:11.840 --> 0:00:14.360 Good morning, peeps, and welcome to book a f daily 0:00:14.440 --> 0:00:18.160 with me your girl, Danielle Moody recording from the Bunker. 0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:24.200 You know, folks, last week I received a considerable amount 0:00:24.320 --> 0:00:29.200 of pushback on social media on a number of accounts, 0:00:29.720 --> 0:00:32.760 one of which being that I go way too hard 0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:36.919 on the Democratic Party and because of me, apparently solely, 0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:40.960 that Biden is going to lose in twenty twenty four 0:00:41.120 --> 0:00:43.920 and Democrats are going to lose in twenty twenty two, 0:00:44.040 --> 0:00:46.919 and that I need to be a better cheerleader for 0:00:46.960 --> 0:00:51.640 the administration as opposed to telling people the truth. And 0:00:51.880 --> 0:00:55.520 you know, here's the thing that I feel right now 0:00:55.680 --> 0:01:02.040 about blind cheerleading. No one is stupid. It's not helpful. 0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:06.640 What is helpful or clear steps and clear action. What 0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:10.959 is helpful is getting people into a state of rage that, frankly, 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:14.080 they should have been in in twenty fifteen when Donald 0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:18.399 Trump descended down the fucking escalators and into our lives 0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:22.760 and into the center of ruining our democracy. And here's 0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:27.240 the thing is that I listen to people on every 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.920 day social media, people out in the streets. You listen 0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:35.839 to all of you who DM me and comments, and 0:01:36.120 --> 0:01:39.240 I am not the only one who is outraged. I 0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:42.720 am not the only one who is beside themselves right 0:01:42.840 --> 0:01:46.679 with the inaction that this administration has been showing. And 0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:50.600 here's the thing. I understand that the steps that need 0:01:50.680 --> 0:01:53.760 to be taken, they're not easy. That the steps that 0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:57.280 need to be taken can be pushed back in court. 0:01:58.000 --> 0:02:01.840 The thing that people need more than ever right now, 0:02:02.160 --> 0:02:05.600 as they are losing faith, as they believe that they 0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:09.480 literally are being pushed up against a corner, is that 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:14.079 somebody is fighting for them. That even if it is 0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:19.600 that the Biden administration unleashes all of its top speakers, 0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:23.079 including the Vice President of the United States, puts out 0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:27.320 all of its spokespeople, and they start attacking the Republican Party, 0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:30.840 they start connecting the dots about why women and people 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:33.720 with uteruses in this country are now up against the 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:36.600 clock in terms of whether or not they're going to 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:39.200 be able to maintain their bodily autonomy if they live 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:41.680 in a blue state or how long they have in 0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:45.880 the red states. Right that they need to come out 0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:48.519 and say, you know, the reason why we have inflation 0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:51.320 is because of what Trump did when he was in office. 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:54.760 Do you know the reason why that you now if 0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:57.120 you were living in a state that was actually providing 0:02:57.200 --> 0:02:59.200 free COVID tests, that you are no longer going to 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:03.520 be able to act because the Republicans did not come 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.840 forward and support a COVID relief package. Do you know 0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:09.359 why more people in America are going to get sick 0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:11.520 in the coming weeks as we are learning more and 0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:15.160 more about BA four and BA five, the next iteration, 0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:20.200 the fourth wave of COVID nineteen oh, because Republicans told 0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:24.480 twenty five percent of the population that COVID is a hoax. 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:26.799 They don't need to wear a mask. Oh, it's their 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:29.680 body and their choice when there's a deadly virus that 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:32.520 they can spread to their community. But when I'm making 0:03:32.520 --> 0:03:35.560 a choice about my bodily autonomy and when and if 0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:37.440 and how I want to start a family, all of 0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:41.000 a sudden, that's the government's decision. And call out the 0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:46.480 fucking hypocrisy. I think that the Democratic Party underestimates quite 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:52.840 often how important telling the truth and hammering Republicans are. Instead, 0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.720 they want to compromise. Instead, they want to see what 0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:58.600 can we come to the table on. And I'm just like, 0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:01.640 what is it that you need to see that you 0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:04.960 haven't seen already? About Republicans. What is it that you 0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:08.840 need to hear that you haven't heard so far in 0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:12.240 the last six hearings of the one six House Commission, 0:04:12.600 --> 0:04:16.120 hearings that we have been privy to that have told 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:19.200 us that it wasn't just a handful of people in 0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:23.960 the Trump administration, that it was essentially every single Republican 0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:28.960 in the House right that was working overtime to overthrow 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:32.440 a free and fair election. That they were working in 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:36.880 coordination with white supremacist groups, the Oath Keepers and the 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:41.520 Proud Boys, and using white supremacist groups as their security. 0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:45.640 How much more information do you need because I haven't 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:50.440 heard not one Republican in leadership, either Mitch McConnell or 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:54.480 Kevin McCarthy come out strongly against the Proud Boys and 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:58.039 the Oathkeepers as so far as I know. When it 0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:02.440 was brought up to list this groups, these groups as 0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:07.240 white supremacist groups as terrorist organizations, they backed away from that, 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:10.680 Which leads me to this thought that I have been 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:15.360 having for a while. You know that the United States 0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:21.120 has no distinction for domestic terrorism. They never have because apparently, 0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:23.440 in the eyes of the United States, the only people 0:05:23.480 --> 0:05:27.440 that are terrorists are black and brown people that are foreign, right, 0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:30.200 it is not the homegrown terrorists that they have been 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:35.640 nurturing through their through Fox News, through public education system, 0:05:36.120 --> 0:05:40.000 through the Trump administration, through the Bush years, through Reaganism, 0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:47.520 like that we have in this country. We've just after 0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:51.320 one hundred years, recognized the Tulsa massacre. It took a 0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:56.440 century to do so. That was an rabid white mob 0:05:56.960 --> 0:06:00.919 that murdered three hundred black people and destroyed an entire town. 0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:04.360 And that's just one of the many that you will 0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:07.880 never learn about and hear about because our public education 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:10.760 system and history is not set up that way to 0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:14.600 actually educate the public. What we are learning right over 0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:17.880 this pushback with CRT among other things that has happened, 0:06:18.080 --> 0:06:21.040 By the way, just a reminder that critical race theory 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:23.799 is not something that is taught in K through twelve schools. 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:28.400 But I digress. What we are learning is what a 0:06:28.440 --> 0:06:32.719 tool the public education system has been for the sustainability 0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:36.120 of white supremacy. Because when you are only teaching history 0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:39.400 and civics through the eyes of white cis header own 0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:42.800 Christian men, you are only going to get their point 0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:44.840 of view. And do you think that they're going to 0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:47.760 showcase themselves in a negative light. Do you think that 0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:52.400 the white manufacturers of these textbooks, right, and curriculum are 0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:56.280 going to showcase themselves in the wrong light. No, You 0:06:56.320 --> 0:07:00.320 get bills that came out of Florida, like Descantis's White 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:04.120 Discomfort Bill. You get bills that come out of Texas 0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:07.839 and Alabama and Mississippi, right, all of it to protect 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:11.160 white people from the truth, because you see, the reality 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:14.880 is that black and brown people, bipoc people, black indigenous 0:07:14.920 --> 0:07:17.960 people of color across this nation have always had to 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:22.080 educate their own young because the public education system was 0:07:22.120 --> 0:07:26.440 not designed for us, right, It was designed for white 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:31.360 people and their preservation and their celebration of self. And 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:35.360 so when you know that, then you have to ensure 0:07:35.640 --> 0:07:39.120 that your own kin will understand that the world is 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:42.040 not safe for them, that this country is not safe 0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:45.400 for them, that there is rabbit anti blackness, that there 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:50.240 is rabbit anti immigrant, anti indigenous people. Right. I was 0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:55.320 watching a video the other day on TikTok and it 0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:59.640 was by a Native American man, and he was talking 0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:02.320 about out all of these bills that are coming into 0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:07.280 play in places like Arizona. Not bills, but actual laws 0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:10.520 that were overrun by the Supreme Court and this last 0:08:10.520 --> 0:08:14.960 session that would take away the rights again, right of 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:18.800 Native American people, who, as this video was proclaiming, have 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:23.760 only had rights for the last fifty years. So it 0:08:23.840 --> 0:08:27.280 isn't just black people that they are coming for. It's 0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:32.440 everyone who does not fit into the white supremacist ideology. 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:35.439 And you have that coming at you from the Supreme Court, 0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:38.480 you have that coming at you from Republican legislatures, you 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:41.680 have that coming out from the entirety of the Republican Party. 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:46.160 So my question then is if Democrats can't do anything legislatively, 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:50.040 if apparently the presidency is the weakest and the executive 0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:52.960 branch is the weakest branch of all of the three 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:56.720 co equal branches of government, then the very least that 0:08:56.840 --> 0:09:00.679 you can do is begin a media campaign and education 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:04.680 campaign that gets people riled up, that begins to start 0:09:04.720 --> 0:09:08.120 with connecting all of these dots instead of focusing on 0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:11.960 siloed issues. As the Republicans throw everything that they can 0:09:12.000 --> 0:09:15.000 at the wall because they're getting their wish list right, 0:09:15.160 --> 0:09:19.120 they're check in boxes. Right now, you have the Pennsylvania 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:22.640 legislature in both the House and the state Senate that 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:26.400 are about to amend their constitution in order to make 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:29.560 it certain that people with uteruss in that state will 0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:32.480 never be able to access an abortion. Now, all of 0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:35.640 the laws that they have been trying to push the 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:40.000 Democratic governor there has been vetoing, but they can't veto 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:44.360 a constitutional change, right. So now this is going out 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:47.719 to the people of Pennsylvania. But you combine that with 0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:52.880 voter suppression and maybe not, it's a motherfucking toss up, right. 0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:56.760 So what Republicans are letting us know is that it 0:09:56.800 --> 0:10:00.640 isn't just about their own states and states rights. It 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:03.760 is a national agenda and they are going to see 0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:07.000 that through regardless of whether or not they take back 0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:10.280 the White House. Because what we are seeing over the 0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:14.040 past year plus, right that Biden has been in office, 0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:17.000 so let's call it the last eighteen months, what we 0:10:17.080 --> 0:10:20.360 are seeing is that you don't need the White House, 0:10:20.720 --> 0:10:23.520 you don't need the majority in the House and the 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.800 Senate in order to be destructive. So how is it 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:30.600 that Republicans have always known this and Democrats have always 0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:33.640 told their voters that, oh, we need the White House, 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:35.959 And now the White House comes out and says, no, 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:40.440 we need you to give us two more senators. That 0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:44.760 is my frustration. It's my frustration because I'm like, are 0:10:44.800 --> 0:10:48.480 we learning from this moment right now? Because frankly, we're 0:10:48.520 --> 0:10:50.960 not getting another bide at the apple. We all know that. 0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:53.040 And I keep saying it, and I keep using the 0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:57.320 same phrase because I still believe that there is a 0:10:57.600 --> 0:11:01.680 large swath at the population on top of these old 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:05.920 school legislatures who are legislatures from another fucking time who 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:10.440 believe that, oh, we'll lose this election in mid terms 0:11:10.480 --> 0:11:13.240 because that's always the way, but we'll get them again. 0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:19.520 In twenty twenty four. There are multiple stories, multiple headline 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:24.359 stories in major papers that are talking about how disgruntled 0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:28.839 and disheartened Democrats are with this administration that is not 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:33.760 voting well for turnout. Now, we can hope and pray 0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:38.320 as we see numbers begin to shift that the Republican Party, 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:42.280 the cult that they are, have finally overreached right, that 0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:45.480 they've gone a step too far in their quest for 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:51.520 this crysto fascist, fundamentalist new world of America. That you 0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:54.760 can only push people so far before they begin to 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:58.600 push back and burn shit down. I mean, that's just facts. 0:11:58.679 --> 0:12:01.680 That's not me advocating for violence in any which way. 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:06.320 But I'm saying for a country who has been the 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:12.640 barometer for what human rights, civil rights, and democracy look 0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:15.320 like around the world, and the rest of the world 0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:20.000 is seeing us have our rights rolled back, one Supreme 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:23.720 Court decision at a time. There is only so much 0:12:23.760 --> 0:12:27.320 that the people are going to take before real action 0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:31.400 in the streets is taken. Because we've seen it over 0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:36.920 and over and over again. The Republican Party has been 0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:43.560 waging a silent civil war for over a decade. It 0:12:43.600 --> 0:12:48.000 began with the Tea Party. It began with Mitch McConnell 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:50.959 saying that Barack Obama was going to be made a 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:55.240 one term president. It began with the questioning the legitimacy 0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:59.880 and the birthright of our nation's first black president. All 0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:03.800 of this that we are experiencing right now is the 0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:08.560 white lash to the audacity of a black person to 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:12.520 ascend to the highest office in this country. Now, while 0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:16.040 we were all busy celebrating and turning the White House 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:20.920 rainbow in celebration of getting marriage equality, passing getting healthcare, 0:13:21.080 --> 0:13:23.839 and getting all of these big things done in those 0:13:23.880 --> 0:13:27.760 eight years, we were also never thinking, in our lives 0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:31.840 mean either that everything could be rolled back in just 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.240 a couple of years, and I mean everything, like every 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:38.800 rite that had been gained over nearly six fifty to 0:13:38.880 --> 0:13:43.960 sixty years would be done, and that the Supreme Court 0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:50.640 would come out by virtue of Clarence Thomas's concurrent opinion, 0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:54.880 where he would state in no unequivocal terms that every case, 0:13:55.240 --> 0:14:00.880 every landmark case, every case that had been precedent that 0:14:01.000 --> 0:14:07.400 had been about codifying our privacy as citizens of this 0:14:07.520 --> 0:14:12.800 free nation is up for graps. So the Republicans are 0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:16.600 telling you, oh, if we can overturn abortion, then we 0:14:16.640 --> 0:14:20.720 are absolutely going to come for birth control. We are 0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:23.640 absolutely going to come for same sex marriage. We are 0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:27.400 absolutely going to come for gay sex and once again 0:14:27.680 --> 0:14:32.160 criminalize the very existence of LGBTQ people in this country. 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:35.520 And if you think that they're going to stop there, 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:40.160 they are not. And So if this administration, if there 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:44.840 are no real concrete steps that can be taken, the 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:48.920 one step that they can take is alerting the American 0:14:49.000 --> 0:14:53.680 people to the evil that the Republican Party is. Is 0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:57.800 alerting the American people to point the finger at the 0:14:57.920 --> 0:15:01.960 reason why you are waking up every day not sure 0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:06.280 if you are dealing with anxiety depression, fear, what have you? 0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:09.480 That if there is no other issue right, if abortion 0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:14.240 is the issue that is just so you know, polarizing. 0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:20.680 How about this, how about you are no longer safe anywhere, 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:23.840 and that a majority of the country, just like a 0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:26.400 majority of the country that believes that people should have 0:15:26.440 --> 0:15:29.680 bodily autonomy, also believe that you should be able to 0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:33.360 leave your house with your family or on your own 0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:36.720 and not fear for your life and wonder whether or 0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:40.040 not this trip to the grocery store, this trip to church, 0:15:40.200 --> 0:15:43.000 this trip to the synagogue and the mosque, this trip 0:15:43.160 --> 0:15:45.760 to the park, to the parade, to your main street 0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:50.040 is going to be your last. That if I were 0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:53.680 running the communications for the Democratic Party and for this 0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:57.080 White House, you wouldn't be able to look away from 0:15:57.120 --> 0:16:00.800 your phone from the television because I would start running 0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:05.960 ads and running a fucking campaign outright that equates the 0:16:06.160 --> 0:16:09.560 violence that we are seeing in our streets with the 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:14.840 Republican Party. And I would begin to showcase, oh, you know, 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:18.480 so and so who voted against being able to have 0:16:18.760 --> 0:16:23.600 an actual, real bipartisan gun legislation with teeth that would 0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:27.560 also take off assault rifles from the streets. Here they 0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:32.120 are along with how much they take from the NRA right, like, 0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:36.320 if you can do nothing that is going to keep 0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:41.400 us safe, then educate the people, because education at this 0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:46.680 point is power, and we know repetition works. Why Because 0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:51.200 the Republicans have been repeating the same fucking lie since 0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:55.760 twenty twenty about the election being stolen from Donald Trump, 0:16:56.360 --> 0:17:00.200 and the numbers of Republicans who believe that lie are 0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:04.639 going up. It's no secret that the news is horsepill 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:08.520 hard to swallow.

And as 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:57.800 we get ready to prepare for yet a fourth wave right, 0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:02.280 we know that these new variants are once again worse 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:04.800 than the last set of variants. So if you are 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:11.400 not hammering in who is responsible for where we are 0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:14.720 right now, then all people are going to think is 0:19:14.760 --> 0:19:19.040 that I voted and my vote didn't matter. I voted, 0:19:19.200 --> 0:19:22.359 and honestly, my life is worse off now than it 0:19:22.440 --> 0:19:25.600 was a year ago. And there are way too many 0:19:25.640 --> 0:19:31.280 fucking people that are saying that right now, because take 0:19:31.320 --> 0:19:34.719 a look, we are starting to see, thank god, gas 0:19:34.760 --> 0:19:39.480 prices go down right gas in some places was that 0:19:40.160 --> 0:19:43.080 damn near six dollars a gallon? So who are they 0:19:43.080 --> 0:19:47.160 blaming for that? They're gonna blame Joe Biden. Why because 0:19:47.240 --> 0:19:50.200 Joe Biden ain't giving them somebody else to blame for it. 0:19:50.880 --> 0:19:54.200 This is a pr game as much as it is 0:19:54.720 --> 0:19:59.800 a real life game. Because if you are not talking 0:20:00.280 --> 0:20:03.400 and your opponent is doing all of the talking, and 0:20:03.480 --> 0:20:06.159 they got all of the lies and all of the 0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:08.800 gas light on their side, but you are armed with 0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:11.800 the truth, but you don't utilize, you don't weaponize that 0:20:11.880 --> 0:20:15.600 truth in a way that goes hard, then what the 0:20:15.640 --> 0:20:19.840 fuck are you doing? And this is what I continue 0:20:19.880 --> 0:20:22.200 to say, and people are coming from me from every 0:20:22.200 --> 0:20:25.479 fucking Engle talking about it. Don't come after Kamala, and 0:20:25.560 --> 0:20:27.959 don't come after Joe Biden, and don't do this and 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.719 don't do that. Well, bitch, I tell the fucking truth. 0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:33.960 That's who the fuck I am. I am somebody that 0:20:34.080 --> 0:20:36.600 is not going to mince words because, guess what, no 0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:41.160 organization and no administration fucking owns me. So that's why 0:20:41.320 --> 0:20:46.400 I say it like it is because again, setting up 0:20:46.440 --> 0:20:51.919 abortion clinics on federal lands really difficult. Right going after 0:20:52.400 --> 0:20:57.639 and declaring essentially a guess a public health emergency is 0:20:57.680 --> 0:21:01.120 also really difficult because they're should be a public health 0:21:01.119 --> 0:21:05.080 emergency and this administration said, oh, well, they've toyed with 0:21:05.119 --> 0:21:08.360 that idea, but they don't want it to go through 0:21:08.400 --> 0:21:13.719 the courts, right, because this Supreme Court, of course, is 0:21:13.880 --> 0:21:16.360 going to take away all of their rights the same 0:21:16.400 --> 0:21:19.399 way that they just did with the EPA. The EPA 0:21:19.720 --> 0:21:22.840 was gutted during the Trump administration, and now the Supreme 0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:27.800 Court took away their ability to regulate emissions. So everything 0:21:28.480 --> 0:21:33.040 from abortion to climate change to voting rights and coming 0:21:33.119 --> 0:21:36.720 up coming up in the next session, right, is another 0:21:36.800 --> 0:21:41.800 case that is going to essentially make it so states 0:21:42.880 --> 0:21:47.119 once again get to make the decision about a national election. 0:21:48.280 --> 0:21:51.000 So what the fuck do you think that people in 0:21:51.080 --> 0:21:55.600 the battleground states that are run by Republican governors going 0:21:55.640 --> 0:21:58.120 to do you think that they're going to let their 0:21:58.480 --> 0:22:04.000 constituents voices be heard? I don't fucking think so. So 0:22:04.359 --> 0:22:07.720 everything is on the table. We are literally moving to 0:22:07.840 --> 0:22:12.280 a situation where we got nothing else to lose, right 0:22:12.440 --> 0:22:15.440 that if we do not fight, and if you can 0:22:15.560 --> 0:22:19.359 only use words and fucking pull out charts and info 0:22:19.800 --> 0:22:24.679 like I want the Biden administration to get everybody. I 0:22:24.760 --> 0:22:27.720 want them to get the people who are the top 0:22:27.880 --> 0:22:30.879 fucking messengers who are not afraid to tell the truth. 0:22:31.040 --> 0:22:33.359 I want them to get the people at Facebook, the 0:22:33.400 --> 0:22:37.359 people at TikTok, the people at Twitter, blanket fucking social media, 0:22:37.640 --> 0:22:41.919 blanket the airwaves. Right call in the big guns, because 0:22:41.960 --> 0:22:45.520 we're not getting another shot. So if you are not 0:22:45.720 --> 0:22:48.199 at a place where you are ready to leave it 0:22:48.320 --> 0:22:52.080 all on the fucking floor, then again, what are you doing? 0:22:52.440 --> 0:22:56.560 And that's the question that people keep asking themselves, and 0:22:56.720 --> 0:23:00.439 while Republicans funny enough, because he was another a funny 0:23:00.440 --> 0:23:03.639 thing that I saw recently where people are like, you know, 0:23:03.680 --> 0:23:10.359 what's crazy is that you have Republicans right now literally 0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:14.879 getting their wish lists presented to them every single week. 0:23:15.080 --> 0:23:17.560 They're wish lists of things that they have always wanted 0:23:17.560 --> 0:23:21.360 to eliminate and put women back in shackles. Put damn sure, 0:23:21.480 --> 0:23:24.560 put black people back in shackles, right, put everybody back 0:23:24.560 --> 0:23:26.840 in their place so they can stay at the place 0:23:26.880 --> 0:23:29.480 that they believe which is at the top, that they 0:23:29.560 --> 0:23:36.080 believe that they are owed. Right, that they are getting angrier, 0:23:37.960 --> 0:23:43.600 so they're winning, but they're also getting crazier. Right. They 0:23:43.600 --> 0:23:48.959 are running ads, political ads in places where Republican candidates 0:23:49.280 --> 0:23:52.720 are using their opponents as target practice, the pictures of them, 0:23:53.760 --> 0:23:56.760 that they are advocating for violence. I mean, did you 0:23:56.920 --> 0:24:02.040 hear that Representative Les Goo who got on the floor 0:24:02.040 --> 0:24:05.600 of the House talking about if the only way to 0:24:05.680 --> 0:24:08.399 keep her grandchildren safe would be to shoot them, she 0:24:08.480 --> 0:24:12.600 would because that's how much she believes in the Second Amendment, 0:24:13.520 --> 0:24:16.320 that she would shoot her own grandkids. That literally came 0:24:16.359 --> 0:24:22.080 out of her fucking mouth. They are getting so wild, 0:24:22.760 --> 0:24:27.240 They are getting so wild and so dangerous, and so 0:24:27.440 --> 0:24:31.960 I'm like, if you were not calling that out, if 0:24:32.000 --> 0:24:34.800 you are just seeking to ignore it and you think 0:24:34.840 --> 0:24:38.080 that that is going to stop them, will folks, then 0:24:38.200 --> 0:24:45.000 no one is fucking paying attention. Things are getting worse, right, 0:24:45.640 --> 0:24:48.480 these people. This is what I find so fucking rich 0:24:48.560 --> 0:24:53.320 right now too. So last week Brett Kavanaugh found himself 0:24:53.840 --> 0:24:59.320 at Morton Steakhouse in DC, and while he was dining, 0:24:59.400 --> 0:25:02.679 apparently waiting on his soufflet or whatever the fuck he 0:25:02.720 --> 0:25:06.200 was going to get for dessert, over a hundred protesters 0:25:06.720 --> 0:25:10.000 showed up at the restaurant and he ran out the 0:25:10.040 --> 0:25:14.560 back door because he's a fucking punk, right, And you 0:25:14.640 --> 0:25:19.399 have Republicans talking about civility and how people should not 0:25:19.480 --> 0:25:22.399 be protesting. He has a right to eat, And I'm like, 0:25:22.720 --> 0:25:26.040 you don't have a right to do shit, because you see, 0:25:26.280 --> 0:25:30.280 your decisions have turned this country upside down. So if 0:25:30.320 --> 0:25:32.600 you think that you're going to be able to dine 0:25:32.720 --> 0:25:35.600 or exist in peace, you have another fucking thing coming. 0:25:35.880 --> 0:25:37.720 So when I say that people need to be as 0:25:37.760 --> 0:25:40.880 motherfucking disruptive as possible, that's the hot shit that I'm 0:25:40.920 --> 0:25:47.200 talking about. Like, why should Brett Cavanaugh and the Thomases 0:25:47.320 --> 0:25:50.760 be able to exist in their peace right? Why should 0:25:50.800 --> 0:25:53.800 they be able to go about their normal day to 0:25:53.880 --> 0:25:58.240 day behavior. They should feel just as uneasy and unwell 0:25:58.560 --> 0:26:01.119 as they have caused for the of the fucking nation. 0:26:02.240 --> 0:26:05.359 So I think that it's rich that Republicans are talking 0:26:05.359 --> 0:26:09.240 about somebody's decorum when their constituents are the ones that 0:26:09.320 --> 0:26:14.760 have murdered and bombed abortion clinics. What right? The ones 0:26:14.800 --> 0:26:18.560 that stand outside, the ones that target women and people 0:26:18.600 --> 0:26:22.280 with uterus is the ones that literally are targeting trans 0:26:22.400 --> 0:26:27.240 kids across this country and criminalizing queer people. Oh but 0:26:28.000 --> 0:26:30.640 we should allow Brett Kavanaugh to finish his fucking meal. 0:26:30.720 --> 0:26:36.480 That's sexual predator rapist. Yeah, I don't think so. If 0:26:36.560 --> 0:26:39.040 that is the least that we can do, then I 0:26:39.119 --> 0:26:41.760
