Here's the thing real quick. 45 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 1: If I can't, can I jump in this real quick? 46 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: We got time for this. Here's here's a cool thing 47 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: about I'm a religious person, right, I got a I 48 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: got a pretty strong faith. And uh, I'm always amazed 49 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: that the creator be a he or a she or 50 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: a bird or whatever. For you designed a planet, brought 51 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 1: a planet together, and you didn't have to use color, 52 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: everything would be dope even if there was no color, 53 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: Like I still eat the back if everything was just 54 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 1: on that great scale. But whoever was making the ship, 55 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: it was like, um, but then this is a blue jacko. Okay, 56 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: so it's trees, right, but not all all trees do 57 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: the same ship, like some of Christmas trees and some oranges. 58 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: You're like what, and like what about these are these oranges? 59 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,239 Speaker 1: I was working with yellow that day, so they limited. 60 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: So I'm like, you're getting high watching Planet Earth last 61 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: I was high on Planet Earth last night. Um, And 62 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: I'm always intrigued by birds because I'm like Jesus, whoever 63 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: is designing the planet, sure does have a lot of 64 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: extra paint left over for for something that doesn't really 65 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: have to come in the many colors. But does What 66 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: are the big sort of characteristics of a crane? It's 67 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: like super long legs, it's like a tall pigeon um, 68 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: and there's not a lot of cranes. And cranes get 69 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: confused with other types of birds, Like there's a million 70 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: kinds of hawks, but a hawk isn't the same thing 71 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: as a raptor, right sonsaur? Like the yeah, like a dinosaur. 72 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: They evolved into here this you see. What I'm trying 73 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: to tell you is that it's crazy out there if 74 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: you look up in these trees. Evolution of Beauty is 75 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: a good book for bird fanatics like birds. Also, State 76 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: Birds of California is a really good bird book. It 77 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: got like the drawings and stuff that identifies that'd be amazing. 78 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: A bird book with no illustrations, kind of an orange 79 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: ish yellow like his book is useless? Uh, what is 80 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: something you think is overrated? Um? Overrated? White People's conversation 81 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: on Kanye West's recent outbursts. You can keep that to yourself. Uh, 82 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: don't nobody want to hear what you got to say 83 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: back on that conversation, because I'm gonna break it down 84 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: right lately you you've been hearing the conversation has now 85 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: shifted to thank God for childish Campino, right at the 86 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 1: perfect time when Kanye was self destructing. What were we 87 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: gonna listen to in our party bus limo this weekend? Hush, 88 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: let us grieve, Let us grieve. Man, We're gonna go 89 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: get Kanye, bring him back. Y'all don't have ship to say, 90 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 1: because really, all Kanye was staying is the ship that 91 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: white people say all the goddamn time. So here's the deal. 92 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: If you participate in the destruction of a race and 93 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: then that person from that race chimes in with you, 94 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: stand down saying nothing because obviously the first thing on 95 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: that dude's mind when he loses his mind is how 96 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: much he feels disenfranchised. That's what you're here, what you 97 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: listen to. It's a black dude being so frustrated with 98 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: being black that he actually for a second entertained the 99 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: concepts of the other side. And when that happens to us, 100 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: as white people, men don't kick us when we down, 101 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: and certainly don't treat us like light bulbs and be like, 102 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: thank god, we ran out of cheeseburgers at the buffet 103 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: and somebody brought in new sliders. Don Grebers, not no 104 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: new slider. You don't get access to either one. To 105 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 1: be quite honest with you, that both of them belonged 106 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: to us. So to hear white people even have some 107 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: ship to say about a condition that they created and 108 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: continue to create, makes me a little frustrated. You keep 109 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: that now next year when he goes crazy and he 110 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: started saying, and he started saying, maybe then chime in, 111 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: but right now, the boy said, my wife got attacked. 112 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: It broke me down that she got attacked. I supplied security. 113 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: My album didn't do well the first time I got 114 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: beat by Drake. I don't like that. I don't like that. 115 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 1: He said, Jay ain't been around. My Ace Boom Cool 116 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: ain't been around. He said, I'm turning forty whatever. I'm 117 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,559 Speaker 1: a little stressed out about that. I made five million 118 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: dollars in debt. I'm a little stressed out about that. 119 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: And instead of people being like, well he got a 120 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: lot going on, he got a like going on, People 121 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: were like, huh, do you hear what Kanye said? Like, 122 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: do you know what your neighbor said? Do what your 123 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: president said? Be do you hear what the average shopkeeper 124 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: and a mall says to me every time I go 125 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: shopping Until you are outraged that that ship. You can 126 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: leave hip hop something that you never were listening to 127 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: in the first place. You can leave that ship alone 128 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: because hip hop to us a sacred It is the 129 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: call from plantation to plantation about when Harry is gonna 130 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: stop by and free us. Right, So we don't we 131 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: don't need an extra extra commentary, We don't need any 132 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: punditry on something that is so very intimate to us. 133 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: You can stand down. It would be like be shipping 134 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: on all the white women who voted for Trump. Do 135 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: you think women want to hear that ship? Women don't 136 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: want to hear that ship. They want to be like, 137 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: we we'll be over here trying to talk to these ladies, 138 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: but we don't need to hear.

But I'm just saying, like, damn, 170 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: you all get to decide who gets to be anointed 171 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: and you're not even in the community. That's not fair. 172 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: Like Kanye has been down for a long time. I 173 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: think I don't know. Part of me knows when I 174 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: see him talk like this now, part of me wonders 175 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: if he knew that that's what life was like, or 176 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: it just made sense to as a style to market 177 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: himself that that was like that, because especially when he 178 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: was railing against like this New Slave stuff and trying 179 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,679 Speaker 1: to do things differently, and like, you know, he was 180 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: talking about all the corporations, this and that, and I 181 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: was like, well, then why don't you not do your 182 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: tour with a g or something. Why don't you Why 183 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 1: can't you be a little more actually revolutionary rather than 184 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: just saying something like that. That's where it rang a 185 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: little hollow with me, especially on that album, where I 186 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: was just kind of like, you're talking about it, but 187 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: not a fucking thing you were doing is actually aside 188 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: from rapping about it, I don't see anything in your 189 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: life that really it doesn't seem like you were actually 190 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: fighting for anything aside from through your music, which is fine, 191 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I don't know if he 192 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: can just then annoy himself as some kind of like 193 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: revolutionary person and and pump himself up saying like I'm 194 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: a lot Disney and all this other ship. It's crazy 195 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 1: because when he came out and he was like, I'm 196 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: not getting the amount of respect I deserve in the 197 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 1: fashion world, and a bunch of people pointed out a 198 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: very very good fact, which was like, you build Fubou, 199 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 1: you make rock aware, you come up with that, you 200 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: don't go over to Louis vatm MOA and Hennessey and 201 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: ask them for a directorship because you don't know how 202 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: to sell bra But at the same time, Virgil A. 203 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: Blow is the head of Louis VA tott up right, 204 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: So there was something to what he was saying. No, 205 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 1: for sure, I'm not saying that there wasn't, but it's 206 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: it's the parts that were about, like his advocacy for 207 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: African American people, for trying to talk about the disenfranchise 208 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: from marginalized, that just seemed like it was rhetorical and 209 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: it didn't feel quite like, oh, you know what, I'm 210 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: actually only hiring, like you know, this union to work 211 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: specifically to do this tour, or I'm going to change 212 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: the structure of how the money generated from a tour 213 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: is distributed and it just doesn't come to a massive 214 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: company or whatever. Those are the kinds of But I 215 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: don't know. Maybe that's just my take because I have 216 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: the point of view to be able to see how 217 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: that works. And that's why I'm like, well, I don't 218 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: know how much. You know, the dude doesn't read either. 219 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: That that's another thing that really bothers me about him. 220 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: He doesn't read, and he's he's also like an anti academic. Also, look, 221 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: you know, we started the week talking about I don't 222 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: like the Kanye Donald Glover comparison because it's not about that, 223 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: it's not relevant, it doesn't the only comparison you can 224 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 1: make is that. Yes, they're both artists. Remember when Leo 225 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: was Leonardo DiCaprio. I call him Leo because we like that, 226 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: you know, which I know is man. Leo rent the 227 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: apartment above my house. It's crazy. He's on the down low. 228 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: He's like just so humble above me. But we knick 229 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: get And I was like, when I was watching people 230 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: go back and forth about the comparison, I was like, 231 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 1: it reminded me of Django Man when Lego's in the 232 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: living room and he's watching two black dudes fight and 233 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: he's like, kill him. That's kind of how Yeah, that's 234 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: not that's not productive. Yeah, and it's not don't We 235 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,839 Speaker 1: don't need to give people these like messy titles. I 236 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: can ordain them things like that, that's not what this 237 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: is about, you know. And so that's why I feel 238 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 1: like the conversation conversations are a little bit misguided when 239 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: they start creeping in that direction. But anyway, and I 240 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 1: feel like we're doing with Mangazi too, with like you know, guys, 241 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: is what we call the whole me too things, like 242 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: the whole me too thing, and it's like, Okay, this 243 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: guy's on our side, that guy's on their side and 244 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: every like it's being charged with like taking sides and 245 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: ship and you know, people are being used for the 246 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 1: purposes of this culture world and everybody wants to turn 247 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: everything into like different sides that monetize. You know what's 248 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: crazy about that movement is didn't nobody go get all 249 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: the people that got discriminated against and monetize them, because 250 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: it's really what it's about. They didn't empower his victims. 251 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:19,719 Speaker 1: I don't need to pick a side. If you really 252 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 1: want to show me change, show me. Motherfucker's that is 253 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 1: eaten when you talk about we don't like this injustice. 254 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 1: We don't like that injustice unless you go and lift 255 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: those people up that that got put down that I 256 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: don't really want to hear your punditry. You know, I 257 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: started doing these shows where we talk about issues, but 258 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 1: we donate the door to the issue that we talked 259 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: about because I was noticing that people sort of made 260 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: their money off of the issue. You've got all these 261 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: different hosts on TV right now that talk a great game. 262 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,319 Speaker 1: You know, John Steward made a ship ton of money 263 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: talking to all the problems in the world, but didn't 264 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 1: really get down with black folks. So how are you 265 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: going to represent your US? But you don't hire or none, 266 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: you're not monetizing the issue because at the end of 267 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: the day, you can talk a big game about the ship, 268 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: but unless something changes for the people you're talking about, 269 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: then you've just made money off of you know, I 270 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: like John Oliver buying people's debt. I find it strange 271 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: that the only people who are qualified to talk about 272 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: the state of America foreigners, right either Brandon, What's something 273 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: that's underrated being an ally? Being an ally? There's a 274 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: sweet sweet position when you hook people up who or 275 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 1: listened to, or respect or respond to people who are 276 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: who are downtrott who are maybe compromised. You know, um, 277 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: you don't really get to see what the planet looks 278 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: like until you lift up the very people that don't 279 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: get a fair shake on it. So I will say 280 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: that like handing a burrito to somebody who doesn't have 281 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: a burrito is way better than buying a burrito and 282 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: a great restaurant. But if you don't know how to 283 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: pry just this behavior over tip over tip is the 284 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: easiest way to get involved in terms of like what 285 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: does it look like when I when I use my 286 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: generosity in a typical way, you know, because true power 287 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: is when you're able to hook somebody else up. Yeah, 288 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: not just not just flex on everybody. Yeah, you want 289 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: to bring people up with you? Is your man's eating? 290 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: You know, we know you eat. But did you send 291 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: your niece to college? Did you hook somebody up with 292 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: the very Did you really throw it out there and say, 293 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: I got a million bucks, I'm gonna see if I 294 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: can make another million by giving this first million away, right, 295 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: just just to test myself. Now, a lot of people 296 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: can't make a million twice. So I feel you. I 297 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: feel you. But let's really crank it up and see 298 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: what it looks like. And one of the ways to 299 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: crank it up and see what it looks like is 300 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: by giving the ship away and being as general. And 301 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: it doesn't even have to be money. You know a 302 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: lot of people don't realize, especially as an ally, if 303 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: you are not, if you're white and you're you can 304 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: give opportunities to people to that are just as empowering. 305 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: Or you can you can, you can might be you 306 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: might interview somebody for a job you might not have otherwise. 307 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: But there are so many small ways. It doesn't have to. 308 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: I think people think that like you have changed the 309 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: world instantly, you know what I mean? If you can 310 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: just do incremental change a lot that will build up 311 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: over time. Also, it's flexing. It's flexing to stand up 312 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: for somebody, if you if you really I love that 313 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: people get hard and get get credit for being hard 314 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: by hurting somebody, by putting somebody else down. It's it's 315 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: incredible that we live in a society that like really 316 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: looks up to people who do damage versus your ability. 317 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: If you feel marginalized, if you're out there and you 318 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: feel like the world has given you an awful, awful 319 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: way to go, look over, pull somebody up and see 320 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: how much powerful you become. Yeah, because you at least 321 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: you're building an army at that point. Yeah. Look, we're 322 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: gonna just change the definition of baling to philanthrops. Yeah, 323 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: or not really give it away. But it improve the 324 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: situations of those around you in any way you can. 325 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: And that's why occasionally on the show, I would like 326 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 1: to say, you know, at least contribute to an atmosphere 327 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,719 Speaker 1: of positivity or generosity at the very least, if that 328 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 1: even means being kinder or whatever, It's just it's just 329 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: something we need to sort of ingrain in ourselves and 330 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: be greedy. Man. The reason I'm trying to hook people 331 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 1: up because I want to see what they really do. Like, 332 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what this planet looks like until it's 333 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: actually realized with people who have a quality. So, like 334 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: we talked about the Me Too movement is all these 335 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,880 Speaker 1: people losing their jobs, and I'm like, bro, how many 336 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 1: people are Harvey Wanston keep out the game? How many people? 337 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 1: How many women directors, producers, actors, writers did we miss 338 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: out on? And I mean, if you're not trying to 339 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: be kumbaya about the ship on a monetary which is 340 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: how we flow out here on just a purely fiscal level, 341 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: how much money did we miss out by oppressing women 342 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,719 Speaker 1: in the game? How much money do we miss out? 343 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: We don't miss out on black Money because black Money 344 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: sets up studios, Black Money launched his television networks. When 345 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 1: it comes to other minorities, I always have this theory 346 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 1: that everybody has something that they're really good at. Right, 347 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: And let's hypothetically say that lay oceans are the best 348 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: of comedy, and that there is a building a loose 349 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 1: where there's a comic and he's got ten people in 350 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,479 Speaker 1: front of him, and he's doing the best work in 351 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: the world. Like he's funnier than any comedian that we know, 352 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: because they Laotian people have a lock on that ship 353 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: and we don't know it. And the reason we don't 354 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: have good comedy is because we don't hire Laosian comedians. Right, 355 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 1: So my ship is like, what are you doing without? 356 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: What are you missing in the world because you're so stupid, 357 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: You're so primitive, you dragging your knuckles and trying to 358 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: keep people down. You know, maybe it's maybe it's con 359 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: from King of the Hill. I was just thinking him 360 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: my first you know what, who knows he would be 361 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 1: like had to give up that dream, give my family out. 362 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 1: But I honestly think prejudice and holding other people down 363 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: is the only time Hollywood says no to money. And 364 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: I don't think they meant necessarily know they're saying no 365 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: to money. But you know, all these like pieces of uh, 366 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: you know, accepted wisdom that existed with like producers in Hollywood, 367 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: Like a black doesn't Travel was a thing that we 368 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 1: saw in those email leaks, the Sony email leaks, when 369 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: they were talking about the Denzel Washington Equalizer sequel. They 370 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: were like, well, uh, as Denzel is my favorite actor. First, 371 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 1: let me let me let me preface this by saying, 372 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: Denzel is my favorite actor, but we cannot green light 373 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: Equalizer two because black doesn't travel. And also, I voted 374 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: for Obama nine times and I've seen that just because 375 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: there's like a slate, a slight break in that damn 376 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 1: of prejudice. And we're getting movies like get Out, and 377 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 1: we're getting movies like you know, Straight out of Compton, 378 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 1: which was like a huge monster out of nowhere hit, 379 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: Like they're actually getting some of the money that they've 380 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: just been turning down all these years. Because Yeah, I 381 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: think in general, just a point of like just a 382 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: philosophical thing is if you can just allow things to 383 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: flow and you are not abstru doing anything, that is 384 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: probably that's always the best way to do. Like when people, 385 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 1: you know, especially like in an entertainment, a lot of 386 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 1: people see other people doing really well and they get 387 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: fucking like man, even if it's not verbal and out loud, 388 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: it could just be internal. That's you cutting yourself off 389 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: from the energy that can flow, that can lift you up, 390 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:20,679 Speaker 1: that other people can or if you're just doing some 391 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: hater ship to try and make something difficult for someone else. 392 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: Now see, you're using your energy to not to block 393 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: shit and rather than it contributed like letting you flow, 394 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: look at it like by just being like, yeah, let's 395 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:32,959 Speaker 1: green like this movie. Yeah, let's try this, let's try this. 396 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 1: Ship's popping off. And you know you stand to you 397 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: stand to do more by opening yourself up. Yeah, be greedy, 398 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: be greedy for a quality, because yeah, it's going to 399 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: set you up. Yeah, speaking of greed for a quale. 400 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 1: I mean we've been talking about the war on poverty, 401 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: that Martin Luther King Jr. Was starting in on him 402 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 1: when he was assassinated, and that RFK was starting in 403 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,239 Speaker 1: on when he was assassinated. And how funny it is 404 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: that when they when leaders focus on poverty, they get killed. 405 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: But uh, that's you know of the problem. You know, 406 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: inequality is still a huge, huge problem. And uh there's 407 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: actually a profile in The New Yorker this week of 408 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: William Barber, who is a pastor who is like kind 409 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: of spearheading this revival of the war on poverty. Uh, 410 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: and he's you know, it's happening like he's got a 411 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: lot of support and a lot of momentum, and that's 412 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: something that, like you were saying, you know, all the 413 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 1: Trump news has drowned out the fact that there is 414 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: this big movement that is continuous with Martin Luther King Jr. 415 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: Is like the most radical thing that he was trying 416 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: to do at the end of his life. So William 417 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: Barber is definitely worth looking up. And you know, if 418 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: you're looking for ways that you can help equality, he's 419 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: a great person to kind of get behind. Let's move 420 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 1: on to myth. What is a myth? What's something people 421 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 1: think is true that you know to be false black 422 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: or black crime? All right, I was gonna say the 423 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: Compton gun train. What is the Compton gun Compton gun train? 424 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: Is this crazy myth that Californians have that there was 425 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: a train in the sixties that pulled up with a 426 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 1: bunch of guns on it in the Hood that people 427 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: just went and got guns from what there was like 428 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 1: a U n Aid distribution point where they're like, okay, 429 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: get your bags of guns, and there's like old everyone 430 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 1: was like an old black uge, like yeah, Compton gun train. 431 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: And I have looked and looked and looked to see 432 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: if there is any proof of it. And then every 433 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: once in a while, like I said, you'll come across 434 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: a person who's like, yeah, man, everybody knows about the 435 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: Compton gun train, But did you ask yourself? You do 436 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: kind of have to ask yourself, like how do you 437 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: get weapons into a community where there are no gun stores? 438 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 1: In such an insane right? Right? Um? Compton gun santasy. 439 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: So so people can look that up if you can 440 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: find out any information on that. I don't necessarily know 441 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: if it's true, m hm um, because I think it 442 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 1: would be a bigger story, right, But then again, you know, 443 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: I never thought that they were poisoned water flint, right 444 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 1: or like you know, or Rick Ross was out here 445 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: working with the government, who knows are indirectly like, how 446 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: do you want to look at freeway? Ricky Ross breaking 447 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: l a now with the crack. But there is no 448 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: such thing as black on black crime. I mean, you know, 449 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: like in your own insular family and you strike out, 450 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 1: you hit your sibling. Everybody who hits the person who's 451 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 1: closest to him. It's the same across the board, right, Yeah, yeah, 452 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: it is a huge myth. Yeah. Well, of course, the 453 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: narrative to be like an you see, yeah, that's the problem, 454 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 1: is this black on black crime. Crime is the problem. Really, 455 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: it's class more exactly lack of access to things that 456 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: put people's situations where they have to come at crimes 457 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: or whatever. But hey, look what, I'm not a sociologist. 458 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: We're just a couple of guys on second rate podcast, 459 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 1: my new attack. We moved up from third rate. All right, now, 460 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: I do not feeling let's get cocky, let's get second 461 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,360 Speaker 1: let us let you know right now if you don't 462 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: get us at the first rate, Compton gun train and 463 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: gonna make it stop. You don't hear that comes to 464 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: gun Santa coming through? All right, We are trying to 465 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 1: take a sample of the national share of consciousness, what 466 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: people are thinking and talking about right now in the world. Uh, 467 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: And we're going to do that after this break and 468 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 1: we're back. And there were some mid term prims, primaries, 469 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 1: some primaries running in Novemberry and no vmbre as they 470 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: say as they who will be in the Congress. So 471 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: the one election that we had kind of previewed was 472 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: the West Virginia Republican primary because Blanket Ship your your 473 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: boy who ran the coal mines and killed lots of 474 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 1: people with just being the worst. Yeah, well luck capital. 475 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 1: I think literally his probation ended last night at midnight. 476 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 1: So what a great day to be like, all right 477 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: to France. Uh so yeah, he lost. Uh. The winner 478 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 1: is actually Patrick Morrisey, who I think the Attorney General 479 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: of West Virginia. But he also has an uphill battle 480 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: because Joe Manchin, who is the Democratic Senator, he is 481 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 1: by far the most conservative Democrats senator in in the Senate. 482 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: But yeah, he's a huge figure in West Virginia. But 483 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 1: this guy who won, Patrick Morrisey, you know, he's got 484 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: some negatives to I think one thing that they'll probably 485 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: hit him on. His wife was a lobbyist who did 486 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: a lot of work with Cardinal Health, which is very 487 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: well known in West Virginia because they fucking flooded the 488 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: state with opioids, like between two thousand seven and two 489 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: thousand twelve, they shipped two forty one million doses of 490 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 1: hydrocodone and oxy codon into the state. It's interesting because 491 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 1: on one hand, you have the coal industry, which has 492 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: blood on his hand, and then you have cardinal Health, 493 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 1: which also does too. In the state that has been 494 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: just completely devastated by the opioid epidemics, So we'll see 495 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,719 Speaker 1: how that shapes up. Another interesting person who also won 496 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: last night is this guy, Richard Ajita, who was running 497 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: for I think the third district in Congress, and he's 498 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,919 Speaker 1: a pro gun rights, army veteran. He's a state senator 499 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 1: right now, but he like supports the teachers strike. He's 500 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: like a pro labor guy, like he's getting the backing 501 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 1: of the coal miners. He's like trying to reform marijuana laws. 502 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: But he also voted for Trump, and his whole thing 503 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, I'm running as a Democrat. He's like, 504 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,679 Speaker 1: I voted for Trump and sort of regional solidarity. But 505 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: he goes, but my god, this last year has been 506 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: a ship show. And he's like, this guy is not 507 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: a president. This guy is a mess. Like he's very 508 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: clear on what is wrong with the president. But you know, 509 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: he's a very interesting candidate and I think would do 510 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 1: quite well as exciting as he is as a candidate. 511 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: Guys don't vote out a regional solidarity. Yeah yeah, but 512 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: that's not good. But you know what that for for? 513 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: That just shows you how fluid, though, like the politics 514 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: are in that state because like, for I'm pretty sure 515 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 1: West Virginia still has more redstered Democrats, you know, because 516 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: I used to be a solid blue state. But it's 517 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: fluid there. Maybe it's like, yeah, you can be a 518 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: Democrat and vote for Trump, you can be a Republican 519 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 1: and be superlibered. Like It's just it's very different there. 520 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: So he's in a unique situation. Also, we have the 521 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: first incumbent to lose a primary in North Carolina because 522 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: his opponent was just hitting him on the one point 523 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: three trillion dollars spending bill. So that shows you a 524 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: lot of people they might still be fiscal conservative, some Republicans, 525 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: and they did not like that. So that's Trump's budget. 526 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 1: He put together one point three trillion dollars worth of 527 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: spending and that is like anti what you would expect 528 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 1: from uh, fiscally conservatives. Absolutely, And to the fact that 529 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: he was getting hit on that by his primary opponent 530 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: shows you that some people are probably starting to I 531 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: don't know, at least in that district, maybe the Trump 532 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: is um was wearing thin a bit. Also, a former 533 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:57,120 Speaker 1: NFL wide receiver Anthony Gonzalez, won his Republican primary bid 534 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: in Ohio against a tea Party want to be Chris Hagan. 535 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 1: So it seems like you know that the fiery rhetoric 536 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 1: of the tea Party is not working so much in 537 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,880 Speaker 1: the primaries. There. Uh, let's see what else. Also, sheriff's 538 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 1: a couple of sheriffs that were working with ICE to 539 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:15,160 Speaker 1: basically get to get detain undocumented immigrants in North Carolina. 540 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: They were voted out Tuesday, So fucking stay honest. Uh. 541 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,439 Speaker 1: And again gotta shout out to women because women won 542 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: nominations in nearly every Democratic race they contested in tuesday. Ohio, 543 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: West Virginia I think had the most, but basically eighteen 544 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: women won the nomination out of twenty three Democratic primaries 545 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: in which at least one woman ran. So I'm telling you, sorry, women, 546 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: you have to save us again. Thank you for doing it. 547 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: Though honestly, if some of us would be you know, 548 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: yeah I would, I would still be wearing bell crow shoes. Uh, wounds, 549 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 1: Like you're an adult, you need to get it together. 550 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: You will not get a job. And look at me now, 551 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: I have shoelaces. So yeah, I mean overall, you know, 552 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: not nothing crazy, but just a lot to a lot 553 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: to look at. That is a good point though. I 554 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 1: mean the amount of strength and courage and just persistence 555 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: it takes to just live a normal life as somebody 556 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: who's you know, held down by the system that's in 557 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: place is incredible. And then to be out here like 558 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: being like we got it from here is fucking amazing. 559 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: And also, one of Donald Trump's accusers also won her 560 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: primary bid for US but it was uncontested. But however, 561 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: you know, she won. She won, she wons, so maybe 562 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: she'll she'll do something. But yeah, sisters are doing it 563 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: on their own. All right. We want to talk about 564 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: some news that was big breaking news in the last 565 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 1: twenty four hours in half the country, and uh, we'll 566 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: talk about how the other half of the country is 567 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: greeting this news. But so Michael Abanati came out and 568 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: just dropped some a who's also very tan by the way, 569 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,959 Speaker 1: for somebody, yeah, very tan man.

That's what I was always 588 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: modulating in over the last few weeks. When he come 589 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: and goes, he'll be like, he'll be our Rachel, Rachel, Rachel, 590 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: the things that are gonna come out, Buckle your seat 591 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: belts and you're like, man, funk out of here, like 592 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 1: let me see something or shut the funk up. And 593 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: so yesterday he pulled showed up something showed us something 594 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: for sure. So he talks about this company, Essential Consultants, LLC, 595 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: which is the LLC that made the payment to Stormy Daniels. 596 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: Brill named yes, and according to their findings, they say 597 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 1: they exist as a real estate consulting company that collects 598 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 1: fees for investment consulting work. Yeah. Okay, so this company 599 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: was created in October seventeen sixteen, most likely for the 600 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 1: sole purpose of obscuring this payment to Stormy Daniels. As 601 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 1: they look into it, though, things got a little bit murkier. 602 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: So first of all, this thing is like the textbook 603 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: definition of a shell company. Like there's no employees other 604 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 1: than Michael Cohen. They have no front facing anything, no website, 605 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: nobody's heard of him. They don't you say they you 606 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: mean he essentially yeah? They Yeah, I'm sorry, I used 607 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: that pronound very uh loosely. Yes, he has nothing uh, 608 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 1: no public presence at all. Uh. And it's clear that, 609 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: based on this first transaction Stormy Daniels, that this company 610 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: is set up for the sole purpose of making transactions 611 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: that benefit the president. So clearly he would not do 612 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 1: the Stormy Daniels payment and then like go on to 613 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: do more shady ship with that same shell company. Right, 614 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: oh Jack, right now, that was a great set up 615 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: because of course he fucking did this. These guys are 616 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: so dumb. So first off, let's just get through the ship. 617 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: That would normally be a huge scandal. He received one 618 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 1: point two million dollars from no artists, the huge pharmaceutical company. 619 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: Uh and because you know, I don't know why, they 620 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: thought that he could advise the company as to how 621 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: the Trump administration might approach certain US healthcare policy matters, 622 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: including the Affordable Care Act. Yeah, okay, so from just 623 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 1: straight up lobbying, like well, if you're a lobbyist, like 624 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: you have to register as a lobbyist because you have 625 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: to let it know that money is a lobbying expenditure, 626 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 1: and there's a whole above board way of saying. Yeah. 627 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 1: The reason when we have that system in place, right 628 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: is because otherwise it's just like, Hey, I know this 629 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: guy and I'm gonna pay him some money and he's 630 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 1: gonna do this thing over here for me, and it's 631 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,440 Speaker 1: the mafia instead of the fucking US government or the 632 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 1: FEC or what to be able to basically monitor what's 633 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 1: going on. So yes, that's the first one. So yeah, 634 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: let's give him the benefit of doubt. Maybe Michael Cohen 635 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 1: knows a lot about the A C. A. And he's 636 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 1: you know, he knows about you know, just what these 637 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: how to stabilize these Obamacare Mark. Yeah, Okay, that he's 638 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: the guy for that, and let's just be generous to 639 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 1: say that. And so he also received two hundred thousand 640 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 1: dollars from A T and T, which is cool too. 641 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: What's weird though, is in that time all these payments 642 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: were received after the inauguration, mind your wants the president 643 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: of power. You know, around this time, A T and 644 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: T is in front of the d o j's Anti 645 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 1: Trust Commission to whether or not they're going to approve him. 646 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 1: A jer between A T and T and Time Warner. 647 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: So I don't know that. Maybe he's starting to stink 648 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: like a little bit. I don't know. He also received 649 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 1: money from a Korean aerospace company for like insights. I'm 650 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 1: sure that's what they will say to but so far, 651 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: at best, it looks like some kind of pay to 652 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: play scheme. Yeah, and the Korean aerospace company's incoming CEO 653 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,720 Speaker 1: had dinner with the President after they made that payment. 654 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 1: So there's evidence that there is pay to play ship 655 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:36,839 Speaker 1: going on, as this alone, just those what we've talked 656 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: about already is just straight up scandalous, scandal like corruption. 657 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 1: That's how a corrupt government work. Not dig him out. 658 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 1: You pay this dude's homie, the president's like buddy, and 659 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: he then gets you to have dinner with the president. 660 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 1: Like that's just that is straight up textbook corruption. And 661 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 1: it's even made worse when you look at certain factors 662 00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 1: like a T and T like doing a huge merger 663 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: right and then they're like especially when he blocks other merger. 664 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 1: This alone is just swamp bullshit to begin with, all 665 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: this ship obviously it was all empty bullshit Trump was 666 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,359 Speaker 1: running on. But this right here, I mean, they need 667 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 1: to answer this in a way that isn't just like, oh, 668 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. Because Michael Anati was also saying, well, 669 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 1: if you have anything that proves what I'm saying is wrong, 670 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 1: please show me those bank statements, because I have the motherfucking' receipts. 671 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: And now you're just gonna have to go figure out 672 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: how you're gonna lie. You're right out of this one. 673 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 1: So moving on that alone is a scandal. Now this 674 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 1: is where it gets. This will get to the holy 675 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 1: shit party. So we first, yeah, yeah, In January two 676 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: thousand seventeen to August seventeen, Coin received payments totally five 677 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: hundred thousand from Putin pal slash oligarch Victor Vexelberg through 678 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 1: the Russians US based company called Columbus Nova. But that's 679 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 1: impossible because didn't we have sanctions against that guy? Well, 680 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: hold on, now, this is a US based company. In 681 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,880 Speaker 1: their statement, they're like, no, this, this company is entirely 682 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,439 Speaker 1: US owned. This is a surd blah blah blah. We'll 683 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:05,280 Speaker 1: check this ship out. Vexelberg's cousin is technically an American 684 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: and he's the one who runs the company. So it 685 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 1: says his cousin's company that he's left with. Yes, and 686 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: also that company was listed as a subsidiary of a 687 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 1: much larger sanctioned Russian company, so again thinks like bullshit. 688 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: And now the thing that's very just kind of odd 689 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: is that the timing of it, This money came in 690 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: around January, you know, Michael Avenati, not that he was 691 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: saying directly, but it was offering like maybe we can 692 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: speculate was did the Russians actually fund this payment, because 693 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 1: Michael Avnati said he pulled out a like a home 694 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,720 Speaker 1: equity loan or whatever to pay to make pay Michael, 695 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 1: Michael said, that's how he got the hundred thirty Yeah, 696 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,439 Speaker 1: but he hasn't verified that. There's no there's no bank 697 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: record of that, or that he's presented that that verifies that. 698 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: But we do see that suddenly he makes hunt thirty 699 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,720 Speaker 1: thousand dollar payment and then boom, you get five hundred 700 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 1: thousand dollars for a Russian oligarch that they can't even 701 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,280 Speaker 1: explain what it is. My kids couch front, Yeah, whatever, 702 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 1: my kids couch front. I got a loan for a Corvette. 703 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: What's the big deal? I got a deal in four 704 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: taxim me down. I was going to build a pool, 705 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: so I got a loan. His dream car is definitely 706 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 1: a Corvette. And so yes, we don't know what is 707 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 1: going on, because if you just take the company stuff alone, 708 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 1: it's very hard to believe that of all the lobbyists 709 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 1: you could go to, of all the lawyers, if you're 710 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:32,280 Speaker 1: really trying to get that, Michael Cohen is the person. 711 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,399 Speaker 1: I mean, this is Michael Avanati yesterday on MSNBC talking 712 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,879 Speaker 1: about it where someone was like just trying to speculate, like, well, 713 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 1: what if maybe he is an expert? Right, are you 714 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: suggesting that Michael Cohen does not have a PhD in 715 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:47,360 Speaker 1: Aerospace technology and pharmaceutical policy. I'm not only going to 716 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: suggest that, but I'm gonna stay real questions. I don't 717 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 1: want to, but I don't want to. This guy's the 718 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 1: Da Vinci of our time. Okay, two questions, still taking shots. 719 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: Shout out to Michael Avonati, but to Yeah, it's just 720 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: a sure pay to play whatever could be. But this 721 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 1: other thing is now looking like, is this the scenario 722 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 1: in which the Russians were like bankrolling certain aspects of 723 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: the campaign, Whether that's like silencing people who we're gonna 724 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 1: bring up stories that could damn as a campaign or 725 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 1: what other ship, It just opens up a huge can 726 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 1: of disgusting worms. And the other thing to note is 727 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: that when this guy Vexelberg was in the States last 728 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 1: the FBI met him at the airport and straight up 729 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:31,320 Speaker 1: copied everything on his computers and film. So they've already 730 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 1: been having their eye on this guy. So I mean, 731 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 1: it's just, you know, this ship gets crazier and crazier 732 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 1: so then to cap that off, right, this thing just 733 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 1: sheds the light on the roaches and they go scattering. 734 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 1: Trump this morning is now basically like threatening the press 735 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: with their credentials, Like he was saying like, oh, all 736 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 1: this negative press, like I get it's fake news. Maybe 737 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 1: I should just stop giving them access, maybe take away 738 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 1: their credentials. I mean, that doesn't seem like a coincidence 739 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: that the day after this ship breaks, now he's talking 740 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 1: about how fucked up the press is. It's just that's 741 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 1: just a sign to everybody that yeah, this this is 742 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 1: as shitty is it? And they're also inquiring into allegations 743 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: that suspicious activity reports on Cohnes banking transactions were improperly disseminated. 744 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,719 Speaker 1: So basically, you know, instead of proving him wrong, and 745 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 1: I he keeps feeling like proving me wrong if if 746 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 1: if I'm wrong, you know too, where's the proof that 747 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:28,719 Speaker 1: you have to contradict this proof? Instead of providing that proof, 748 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: they are going with the wait, how do you find that? Right? 749 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,319 Speaker 1: Which is as you said, somebody is they're talking about 750 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: the leaks that that's being yeah, improperly disseminated. Is basically 751 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 1: them saying like, how do you find that these are 752 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:45,800 Speaker 1: being leaked, which it's not uncommon at all for journalist, lawyers, 753 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,880 Speaker 1: others in the public eye to receive unauthorized That how 754 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: people end up becoming accountable for ship because you find out, oh, 755 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: we know you're dirt, and that's that logic is so 756 00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:57,879 Speaker 1: fucking stupid and it betrays the actual point. And I'm 757 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,760 Speaker 1: saying this earlier. That's like a man getting caught cheating 758 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 1: on his wife and she's like, excuse me, why the 759 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 1: fund do I have this picture of you making out 760 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 1: with her at the fucking shakes Shack And he goes, 761 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: let me see that. How the fund did you get 762 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 1: who took this photo? How the fund did they get? 763 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: What the fund is going on? No, you are missing 764 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 1: the whole point. Maybe you don't read my diary, right, Yeah, 765 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 1: it's like you've been caught. Don't then go why did 766 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:26,320 Speaker 1: you catch me? Know the fun are you talking? Explain 767 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 1: your fucking actions? Are they talking about spit it right 768 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:34,799 Speaker 1: back at you? What are you doing here? And just 769 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:36,439 Speaker 1: I want to put this in the context of something 770 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,800 Speaker 1: we were talking about either earlier this week. Time is 771 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,319 Speaker 1: a flat circle and a complete BLURR at this point, 772 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: But we were talking about the fact that Trump was 773 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:49,239 Speaker 1: buying up all these golf courses with his own money, Uh, 774 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,800 Speaker 1: which is weird because quote unquote his quote quote unquote, 775 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: he's buying him with cash, and he had always been 776 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,279 Speaker 1: buying stuff with debt. That was the way. He was 777 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: known as the debt King because he is good at 778 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 1: nicknames and also because like he just needed to uh 779 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,280 Speaker 1: you know, that's how that's the smart way to finance 780 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 1: uh purchases like giant purchases, and suddenly starts buying all 781 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,359 Speaker 1: these golf courses with cash. That people are like, where 782 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 1: the fund is he getting this cash from. And it's 783 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 1: at a time we have Eric Trump, his uh, you know, 784 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:25,280 Speaker 1: less intelligent son bragging to a golf dot com reporter. Uh, 785 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 1: we have a bunch of guys in Russia who really 786 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: love golf courses. And Uh. Something that I didn't emphasize 787 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,800 Speaker 1: enough is that this is at a time when Russian 788 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: oligarchs and the people surrounding Putin are doing everything in 789 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,800 Speaker 1: their power just looking for ways to get their money 790 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: out of Russia. They're just looking for anyone who will 791 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: accept their money because we were freezing their money, freezing 792 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 1: Putin's money because he was like we were talking about 793 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,520 Speaker 1: becoming the richest man in the world unofficially by just 794 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 1: you know, acquiring everything illegally within Russia and then you know, 795 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 1: just giving it to cellists and like his friends, you know, 796 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 1: like just literally like I hold this three billion, essentially 797 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 1: embezzling like the entire nation's money. And now he is 798 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,840 Speaker 1: supposedly like almost twice as rich as Bezos, who is 799 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 1: supposedly the richest person to ever live. Putin is way 800 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 1: rich as So you imagine that conversation. Yeah, so we 801 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,480 Speaker 1: have a lot of smoke in the golf courses thing 802 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 1: to think something shady is going on there with oligarchs. Uh, 803 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 1: and now this comes out and it's like they're just 804 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 1: directly taking payments from oligarchs. Yeah. Well that's the thing 805 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 1: with the election was if you were if part of 806 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 1: being like African American or a minority in the United 807 00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 1: States was you knew that white people weren't really going 808 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: to do anything because other white people were in control. 809 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 1: So even though Hope and then that came out that 810 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 1: you heard people from the Republican Party being like in 811 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 1: the deep Deep South, we're like, you know, Putin's got ideas, 812 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,239 Speaker 1: because as long as it's not eaty, I mean, as 813 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 1: long as it's not somebody from Brazil taking over, then 814 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,680 Speaker 1: it's the same old management company, just has a Russian 815 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:07,959 Speaker 1: front now with a different accent. Yeah, so we're gonna 816 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 1: let these dudes walk all over us because it's the 817 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 1: They may be the only dudes that can save the race, 818 00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:17,959 Speaker 1: right right, Yeah, I mean I think there's a lot 819 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 1: of like implicit passive white supremacy going on just under 820 00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:26,799 Speaker 1: the cover, Like while the open ship is coming out 821 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 1: and people are like where is this coming from, there's 822 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 1: a lot of the undercover ship going um, all right, 823 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna take another quick break and then we'll come 824 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 1: back with uh some conversation about how this is being 825 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: received on the right at all, if at all, as 826 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,439 Speaker 1: well as some interesting lighter fair we'll be right back. 827 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 1: We're back. And uh So I've been tracking this story 828 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 1: because every time there's a story that seems to me like, okay, 829 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: this is irrefutable evidence that there's funery going on, I 830 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 1: start looking at right wing sites. This story was top 831 00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:11,760 Speaker 1: of the page on Drudge with like the spinning siren 832 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 1: light thing that yeah, yeah, like that's the Cohen allegedly 833 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:23,439 Speaker 1: received payments from Oligarch shock claim. He said, like this 834 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,880 Speaker 1: Drudge recognized what a huge story this is. Uh, but 835 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 1: presumably because people weren't clicking on it. It is just 836 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,799 Speaker 1: like fallen down the page. Uh. Fox News, the way 837 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:37,920 Speaker 1: they've covered this story is Trump lawyer Michael Cohen paid 838 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 1: by these companies. That's the that's the headline. So they 839 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,719 Speaker 1: just tell you a T and T here, like the 840 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 1: most just boring way to possibly cover that. Do they 841 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:54,600 Speaker 1: mention in that one that combos novas? They do, but 842 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 1: it's at the bottom of the whole article. It's like 843 00:44:57,920 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 1: a T and T did this that just make it 844 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,760 Speaker 1: seem as normal as possible. Spend a lot of words 845 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 1: on that, and then they get to the oligarch at 846 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 1: the very bottom of an article that couldn't be more 847 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 1: titled to make people just I'm looking at it right now. Yeah, 848 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: it's at the very bottom and the font sizes I 849 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 1: think one. And even National Interview, which the last time 850 00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,880 Speaker 1: I was really paying attention to National Review, it seemed 851 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:28,480 Speaker 1: like they were more kind of mainstream conservatives who are like, 852 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 1: this guy's crazy, but you know he's a Republican, So 853 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 1: who knows. Uh. Now they've just gone with this incredibly 854 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 1: strongly worded, uh just overblown, uh you know, thing about 855 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 1: how Trump is being railroaded and there's a conspiracy. Uh 856 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 1: and like to the point that it's almost like convincing 857 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 1: the way they lay it out. Uh. And they talk 858 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,959 Speaker 1: about his polls rising, and you know, just because they're 859 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 1: between forty five and fifty percent. They're like saying that, 860 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:01,919 Speaker 1: like he has a a lot of popular support. That's 861 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 1: really terrible for somebody who's having economic success. But you know, 862 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 1: it's just it's not an opinion piece either, Like I 863 00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:10,960 Speaker 1: was looking for the place where it said, like this 864 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 1: is just a opinion piece from our most right wing person. 865 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 1: It's just like a top article on National Review. Um. 866 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:21,919 Speaker 1: And they don't provide any motive for why there would 867 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 1: be a giant conspiracy against Trump to make all of 868 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,640 Speaker 1: this stuff happen. But it just makes me realize that 869 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 1: I don't think they're ever going to give in, Like 870 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 1: I don't know what the situation is where they're going 871 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 1: to believe, Okay, this guy is fucking corrupt, Like I 872 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 1: just they're not gonna because because he's the figurehead, it's 873 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 1: sessions it's the underlings that are doing actual things. Trump 874 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,400 Speaker 1: is a distraction. It's a beautiful thing that we've got 875 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: set up here where your president is making you watch 876 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 1: him on a daily basis. It's mandatory so you can 877 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 1: find out they're not. You're on the list of people 878 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:04,360 Speaker 1: he's attacking. But then his underbosses, and I use a 879 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 1: mafia term for a reason, that's right, his right, These 880 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,840 Speaker 1: guys down here, they're doing fake scams like cigarette sales 881 00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 1: and parking metersmon right, and deportations and the murders and 882 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 1: the militarization of the police force. That's my think, that 883 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:24,920 Speaker 1: is what's going on. So they're never gonna let this 884 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 1: this ship go away because they're like, oh, yeah, I 885 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 1: guess he's guilty of that. Yeah. Well because also you know, 886 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:32,680 Speaker 1: they got their wet dream of that tax scam and 887 00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 1: massive wealth redistribution, so like it's easy to be like, 888 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:37,880 Speaker 1: you know, that's the same way like Roy Blunt earlier 889 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 1: this week was like, well, I'd be mad if we 890 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,319 Speaker 1: weren't getting so much done, And that just shows you know, 891 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:44,680 Speaker 1: they're not really about governance. They're just about you know, 892 00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,360 Speaker 1: corporate profiteering. This is cleptocracy. But I mean, this is 893 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 1: something we talked about a long time ago. I think 894 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 1: it was uh, maybe even before we were releasing episodes 895 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:56,360 Speaker 1: of this idea that there could be a second civil 896 00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 1: war in the United States, because there was this article 897 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:02,120 Speaker 1: where they interviewed a guy who has spent his whole 898 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:06,360 Speaker 1: life just basically around civil wars on three different continents, 899 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:10,920 Speaker 1: and he cites five conditions that support his prediction of 900 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:15,279 Speaker 1: a coming civil war. It's entrenched national polarization with no 901 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:20,239 Speaker 1: obvious meeting place for resolution, increasingly divisive press coverage and 902 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 1: information flows, weakened institutions, notably Congress in the judiciary, and 903 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 1: a sellout or abandonment of responsibility by political leadership, and 904 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:33,200 Speaker 1: then finally the legitimization of violence as the quote in 905 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:36,960 Speaker 1: way to either conduct discourse or solve disputes. I think 906 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: we have literally everything except that last step. It's the 907 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:43,480 Speaker 1: political part that we don't have. What was the political thing? 908 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,840 Speaker 1: I think it's number four sell out or abandonment of 909 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 1: responsibility by political leadership. We're not quite there. I think 910 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:53,200 Speaker 1: there's a small group within the government that are there, 911 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,440 Speaker 1: but I think most people still, yeah, are just kind 912 00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 1: of like, what the fun is going on. I mean, 913 00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:00,719 Speaker 1: they're still leading. We just don't like what they're but 914 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:03,760 Speaker 1: they actually are full tilt leading, right. But what gives 915 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:08,759 Speaker 1: out first that or people like coming together and deciding 916 00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 1: like Fox News is going to give in on this 917 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 1: and say that Mueller was right to investigate the president. 918 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:16,440 Speaker 1: I think honestly, the only way at least these media 919 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 1: companies are gonna do it is if it actually affects 920 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 1: their profits, so that that will be the calculus for 921 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 1: maybe a news network. I think for the voter, it's 922 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:27,360 Speaker 1: going to be slightly harder because they have to you know, 923 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,359 Speaker 1: like we were saying, people don't like to admit they've 924 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 1: made a mistake and if and that's why a lot 925 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 1: of like, you know, we're talking like is it that 926 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 1: they don't care or that they just need to ignore 927 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 1: that news because they don't want to be confronted with 928 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 1: like any kind of reporting that, oh, dude, this guy 929 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 1: is fucked up. It's easy to be like it's fake 930 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,279 Speaker 1: news because you don't want to read that, you don't 931 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:46,719 Speaker 1: want to hear about that, you don't want to know 932 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:49,760 Speaker 1: that maybe your mom was a groupie with John Denver, 933 00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 1: you know, back in the seventies. Maybe she was. I 934 00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,080 Speaker 1: don't know. Look, I'm just I'm just talking out loud 935 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:58,840 Speaker 1: about my life. So but at the same time, you know, 936 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:00,880 Speaker 1: it's like it's about you just want to bare your 937 00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:02,840 Speaker 1: head in the stand. And I think those people really 938 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:06,320 Speaker 1: would care because obviously, when it's a Democrat, it's easy 939 00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:09,239 Speaker 1: to turn that outrage on because you're diametrically opposed to them. 940 00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 1: It's not that there for like fucking baby, Yeah, democrats 941 00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:14,040 Speaker 1: can do their thing too. I feel like, I don't know, 942 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:16,880 Speaker 1: I think it's just hard to come around to accept 943 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:20,160 Speaker 1: what is going on because that would, by association, be like, 944 00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:23,359 Speaker 1: oh well, am I completely like having normal scruples. Think 945 00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,560 Speaker 1: about how are we not in a civil war currently? Right? 946 00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,760 Speaker 1: I think about the two ways that the two sides 947 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:34,520 Speaker 1: react to somebody within their party being accused of sexual 948 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,920 Speaker 1: assault or having sexual assault proven. You know, people on 949 00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:39,839 Speaker 1: the left are like, all right, it looks like you 950 00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:43,440 Speaker 1: have the evidence, so we're going to accept that this 951 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,879 Speaker 1: person needs to step down. And on the right, he's 952 00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:49,840 Speaker 1: still president and they're just actively ignoring it. So, uh, 953 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think the left is not responding 954 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,440 Speaker 1: any better than the right. Now we have fall guys, 955 00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:58,799 Speaker 1: for sure, right, but it ain't. We're not giving up 956 00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:01,720 Speaker 1: the people that we know. I mean, they're talking about 957 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:06,799 Speaker 1: Louis coming back, so it's only been eight months, so 958 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 1: with a surface of the sun hot take. So I 959 00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 1: don't know that worry any better than they are when 960 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:15,760 Speaker 1: it comes to that. I mean, we started to decline 961 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:20,040 Speaker 1: when we had rich Democrats around the Kennedy era. You 962 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:23,400 Speaker 1: were allowing really bad behavior from a very wealthy Catholic 963 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:29,440 Speaker 1: Um Democratic family. And liberals got wealthy because of the 964 00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 1: Civil Rights movement. They got grants at universities, they got 965 00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 1: all sorts of perks. Property value is part of that, 966 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,400 Speaker 1: in that it became cool to live in certain areas 967 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:42,520 Speaker 1: we don't consider. The perfect example is we know that 968 00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:44,839 Speaker 1: the Republicans in the far right will do things like 969 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:47,719 Speaker 1: pull people out of their cars when they arrest him 970 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 1: um and when they pull them over for traffic stops. 971 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 1: We associate that with Republicans. But the other version of 972 00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:58,760 Speaker 1: a lynching is gentrification. It is incredibly violent, it costs lives. 973 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 1: Some would say it is brings police to neighborhoods. Is 974 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 1: new white neighbors who move into primarily POC neighborhoods. But 975 00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:09,400 Speaker 1: liberals don't self police. If somebody asked me, what's one 976 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:11,360 Speaker 1: of the things that I can do in stopping the 977 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:14,719 Speaker 1: Trump administration, and as always I say, don't try to 978 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:19,320 Speaker 1: go against, don't try to to march against, start marching for, 979 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:21,480 Speaker 1: try to come with. The one thing you could do 980 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 1: is slow the gentrification. If you slow the gentrification down 981 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 1: as a liberal, something that's within your hands, then we 982 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 1: wouldn't have to worry about what the right is doing. 983 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,640 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying about the power of using white 984 00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 1: privilege is to get people off of our backs. Not 985 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:38,799 Speaker 1: to fight your boy, because we're not. You ain't gonna 986 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:41,920 Speaker 1: be effective against your racist uncle. But you could sponsor 987 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,759 Speaker 1: one kid, right, Yeah, you can bring up other Yeah, 988 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,200 Speaker 1: you one person alone cannot take this thing on. But yeah, 989 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 1: if you're uplifting other things and creating a coalition of 990 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,399 Speaker 1: allies of people that are actually focused on the thing, 991 00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:57,160 Speaker 1: that isn't just to be opposed something, but to just 992 00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,799 Speaker 1: be like, well, funk that well that that time will come. 993 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,440 Speaker 1: We can figure out how to do that. Because ultimately, 994 00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:04,440 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter how many people are in the streets. 995 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:07,400 Speaker 1: Trump would probably not resign for any fucking So I 996 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:09,600 Speaker 1: think what you can do is focus on, yeah, getting 997 00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:13,919 Speaker 1: midterm candidates in there that literally go block to block, 998 00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:16,280 Speaker 1: hand to hand combat when it comes to kindness. Because 999 00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be real honest. People want to talk about 1000 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 1: this election and how it got stolen and that Bernie 1001 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 1: did this, the Democrats did this. But if y'all motherfucker's 1002 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:26,000 Speaker 1: had showed up when they were suppressing forty black votes 1003 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:29,799 Speaker 1: in Ohio, if people had gotten behind the Michigan suppression, 1004 00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,879 Speaker 1: then we wouldn't be here because we didn't lose by 1005 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:36,680 Speaker 1: that many votes. It's one of those issues where it's like, honestly, 1006 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 1: we've been in a civil war. We are already in 1007 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,360 Speaker 1: a civil war. If people would just put the fires 1008 00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:45,440 Speaker 1: out in their neighborhood, maybe go block to block to block, 1009 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:47,560 Speaker 1: then we would stand a better chance. We would have 1010 00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:49,640 Speaker 1: to keep trying to elect people. We all need to 1011 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 1: get no motherfucker a job where he goes to d C. 1012 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:55,040 Speaker 1: We need to talk to each other grass roots. You 1013 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,279 Speaker 1: get a farmer's market in your motherfucking neighborhood, but you 1014 00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,800 Speaker 1: can't figure out how to feed people. This is the 1015 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: craziest ship about this country is that we have these 1016 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 1: incredible incredible problems that we act as if we didn't 1017 00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 1: create them and we don't know how to solve them. 1018 00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:10,200 Speaker 1: Jeff Bezos, dumbass, came out talking about how we I'm 1019 00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:12,239 Speaker 1: rich and I'm brand new to the game of philanthropy, 1020 00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:13,759 Speaker 1: what can I do? He said this on Twitter, and 1021 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:17,120 Speaker 1: I was like, my man, logistics is your motherfucking game. 1022 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,439 Speaker 1: How are you gonna tell? And if you're not gonna 1023 00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:21,799 Speaker 1: just kick down a hundred, you got six billion. If 1024 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:23,719 Speaker 1: you're not gonna kick down twenty six billion, let's just 1025 00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 1: cap it at a hundred. Then the least you can 1026 00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:28,480 Speaker 1: do is not underpaying my grandma when she works on 1027 00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 1: one of your motherfucking warehouses. People act like the conversation 1028 00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 1: has to be so huge. It's not huge. You know, 1029 00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:38,000 Speaker 1: damn well, if you're looking at an item that should 1030 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,800 Speaker 1: cost thirty dollars and it only costs three, like, motherfucker, 1031 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 1: I got robbed twenty seven to make it for you. 1032 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:45,279 Speaker 1: That's what you know in your heart of hearts. You know, 1033 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:48,120 Speaker 1: damn well, Whole foods just corrupt, But you begging for 1034 00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:49,880 Speaker 1: him to come in your neighborhood. You know what the 1035 00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:52,360 Speaker 1: food desert is, but you're begging to see what the 1036 00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 1: hell you guys can get done through legislation. Legislation. Your 1037 00:54:56,640 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 1: dollar is your legislation, you know. So it's crazy to 1038 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,040 Speaker 1: me because we act like, oh man, what are we 1039 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:05,359 Speaker 1: gonna do? Yeah, you know what to do. Yeah, you've 1040 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:09,799 Speaker 1: been very simple. Sixth grade, sixth great talk. But also 1041 00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:12,920 Speaker 1: the thing too about those points of the with the 1042 00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:15,239 Speaker 1: conditions for civil war, I think the judiciary is held 1043 00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:18,160 Speaker 1: up for the most part too. They've definitely served as 1044 00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:19,880 Speaker 1: a check. I mean, not that you were saying that 1045 00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 1: we're close to that or anything, but yeah, it's interesting 1046 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:25,880 Speaker 1: when you look at those things. Those are definitely aspects 1047 00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:29,560 Speaker 1: of this government or our country that are starting to 1048 00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 1: to deteriorate a little bit. Yeah, especially now that when 1049 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,560 Speaker 1: you consider the amount of like judiciary appointees that the 1050 00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:36,759 Speaker 1: GOP is stacking in there, Like they're really trying to 1051 00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:39,279 Speaker 1: put just you know, fucking people who don't even know 1052 00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 1: the law in there, who are just like do their 1053 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 1: dirty work. So anyway, those are the forces at work. 1054 00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:46,520 Speaker 1: But let's get to some lighter fair I mean, the 1055 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:50,120 Speaker 1: judiciary is about to you know, come in and say 1056 00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:52,759 Speaker 1: that the travel ban is okay. And speaking of the 1057 00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:55,160 Speaker 1: travel ban. I think the travel ban is trying to 1058 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 1: cover up a conspiracy that we need to think about. 1059 00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 1: Now now, let me let now over. There was a 1060 00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:10,440 Speaker 1: Flat Earther's convention or conference in Birmingham, England, back in April. 1061 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:13,319 Speaker 1: Uh and man, there were a lot of takes coming 1062 00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:14,839 Speaker 1: out of this flat earther is. Now, if you don't 1063 00:56:14,840 --> 00:56:16,360 Speaker 1: know what the fun a flat earther is, that is 1064 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:19,239 Speaker 1: a dumb fucking person who denies sing hey, hey, hey, 1065 00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:23,440 Speaker 1: not that you are? How fucking arrogant are you that 1066 00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 1: you go? No, the Earth is flat? Despite have you 1067 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:30,279 Speaker 1: been across the Atlantic Ocean? Where in England? Where would 1068 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:32,239 Speaker 1: all the water go if the Earth was flat? That's 1069 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,000 Speaker 1: the first question I have, Like, don't you think it 1070 00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 1: would just run off the planet? Well, look, apparently, I 1071 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:39,840 Speaker 1: don't know. I can't begin to understand how this works anyway, 1072 00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:42,560 Speaker 1: So they're out here caping for the flat Earth. Now, 1073 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:44,359 Speaker 1: one of the hot takes that came out of there 1074 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 1: is one of my favorite things. Now, I know the 1075 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:49,279 Speaker 1: Zeit gang is international, and I know we've got people 1076 00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:53,000 Speaker 1: in the UK. We also have people in Australia. All right, now, 1077 00:56:53,640 --> 00:56:55,759 Speaker 1: if I can tell you now, I know I don't 1078 00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:57,920 Speaker 1: know if these Australian people are real, because according to 1079 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 1: this theory, Australa really is actually not real. According to 1080 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,239 Speaker 1: this one, it is a hoax made for us to 1081 00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,000 Speaker 1: believe that Britain moved and I'm now I'm quoting someone's 1082 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,520 Speaker 1: insane Facebook post. Uh, it was made for us to 1083 00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:13,760 Speaker 1: believe that Britain moved over their criminals to someplace. In reality, 1084 00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 1: all these criminals were loaded off the ships into the waters, 1085 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:19,040 Speaker 1: drowning before they could see land. Ever, again, it's a 1086 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:21,520 Speaker 1: cover up for one of the greatest mass murders in history, 1087 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 1: made by one of the most prominent empires. Australia does 1088 00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 1: not exist. All things you call quote unquote proof are 1089 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,520 Speaker 1: actually well fabricated lies and documents made by the leading 1090 00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:34,240 Speaker 1: governments of the world. Your Australian friends, they're all actors 1091 00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:37,760 Speaker 1: and computer generated personas part of the plot to trick 1092 00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 1: the world. If you think you've ever been to Australia, 1093 00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:43,560 Speaker 1: you are terribly wrong. The plane pilots are all in 1094 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:46,720 Speaker 1: on this and have actually uh fully flown you two 1095 00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 1: islands close nearby or in some cases parts of South America, 1096 00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:52,760 Speaker 1: where they have cleared space and hired actors to act 1097 00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:58,800 Speaker 1: out as real Australians. Oh wow, so yeah, this this 1098 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 1: is this is the level of discourse that we're dealing 1099 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:04,880 Speaker 1: with right now. Um, Australia's fake have been to Australia. 1100 00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:07,720 Speaker 1: First of all, I know actors, you can't get them 1101 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:10,120 Speaker 1: to be that good. Yeah, you might get out of 1102 00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:12,520 Speaker 1: two thousand, you might get like five good ones. Have 1103 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:16,840 Speaker 1: you made a fucking boggin? I mean, fucking hell, Mike, Yeah, 1104 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 1: the fucking I don't know. I mean maybe every Australian 1105 00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 1: person just has trained at WAPPA, the Western Australian arch 1106 00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:27,160 Speaker 1: Conservatory School or something, and that's where they're turning out 1107 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:29,600 Speaker 1: these acts. I mean. To be fair, though, Australians are 1108 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 1: taking over the acting game because they cheat. Yeah, everybody, man, 1109 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:35,760 Speaker 1: everybody always has this debate. Let me tell you how 1110 00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 1: this game works. Every time it gets expensive for American actors, 1111 00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:41,640 Speaker 1: we just go ahead and go abroad. That's what we do. Hey, 1112 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:43,520 Speaker 1: can you do an American accident? Right? We're like, oh, man, 1113 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,640 Speaker 1: go to Ireland, man, because Tom Cruise want too much money, 1114 00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:47,440 Speaker 1: So go get us a can fero real quick. So 1115 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:49,800 Speaker 1: all y'all Australians, man, welcome, man, come on over man, 1116 00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:53,840 Speaker 1: but we know who you are. Scabs scabs there? Yeah, 1117 00:58:54,680 --> 00:58:59,200 Speaker 1: what have I mean? Isn't that such an aggressive idea 1118 00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:02,720 Speaker 1: thought to have that you could imagine that an entire 1119 00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 1: country is a fabricated like Disneyland, where they're just like 1120 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,959 Speaker 1: actors to pretend they're living a life. Bro, it wasn't movies. 1121 00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:11,840 Speaker 1: And in Blockbuster movies. You know when you will go 1122 00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 1: to Blockbuster and you will look up at the shelf 1123 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:15,880 Speaker 1: and it it would be cases a movie and was really 1124 00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:20,000 Speaker 1: movies in there? Okay, No, you guys think about that. 1125 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:22,040 Speaker 1: They're like, you had to take it to the front. 1126 00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:24,800 Speaker 1: That's right. I got taken to the front. Especially want 1127 00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:26,360 Speaker 1: to get a Supernintendo game to rent.
