Speaker 1: Some donkey dings just sudd himself. Charlotte Man, I was
Speaker 1: ready for I never read the Donkey other Day.
Speaker 2: What is it again, Charla donc.
Speaker 1: La? That's true?
Speaker 3: Yes, uh donkey to Day for Tuesday, March twenty six,
Speaker 3: goes the congressman David Throne. Okay, he is a Maryland congressman,
Speaker 3: a Democrat running for Senate, and he recently apologized for
Speaker 3: his use of a racial slur during a budget hearing.
Speaker 1: Now, let me set this up for you.
Speaker 3: During the hearing, David Throne was discussing corporate tax rates
Speaker 3: and their impact on business, and somehow that led him
Speaker 3: to use a racial slur.
Speaker 1: Would you like to hear it?
Speaker 2: Here?
Speaker 4: Go? Could you do it better than the other competitor?
Speaker 4: And with that, could you create a P and L?
Speaker 4: Stay with it works? So this Republican jigaboo, that's you know,
Speaker 4: it's a tax rate that's stopping this investment. It's just
Speaker 4: completely faulty. My people have never run a business.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 3: Now I haven't heard this racial slur in a long time. Okay,
Speaker 3: this is a throwback. I don't think I've ever heard
Speaker 3: this racial slur I actually used in real life to
Speaker 3: be honest with you.
Speaker 1: David thrown at sixty eight years old, though born in nineteen.
Speaker 3: Hundred and fifty five, nine years before the civil rights
Speaker 3: back in nineteen sixty four was implemented, so he had
Speaker 3: nine years of segregation. By nine he was probably fully
Speaker 3: equipped with all the black slurs coune, monkey, colored, the
Speaker 3: N word, and jigaboo Jesus. Okay, you got to understand,
Speaker 3: if you grew up when discriminatory practices was still in
Speaker 3: place and there were segregation in public places, you definitely
Speaker 3: use some of those slurs as a white man in
Speaker 3: this country.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 3: There's actually a phrase called a phasia where you think
Speaker 3: one word would say another.
Speaker 1: You ever heard that avenue? Yes, you think one word,
Speaker 1: but you say another.
Speaker 3: So in this case, David thrones that he intended to
Speaker 3: use the word bugaboo. I don't understand the context of
Speaker 3: either in a budget hearing. Okay, I don't know why jigaboo, buggaboo,
Speaker 3: my boo, Acon's brother boo boo from a goods boo
Speaker 3: with you. I don't know why any boo would be
Speaker 3: used in the budgeteering, unless, of course, one of these
Speaker 3: elected officials is getting booed for using a racial slur.
Speaker 1: Now David Throne did apologize. Let's go to the news
Speaker 1: report to hear what he had to say and developing.
Speaker 2: Now, Maryland Congressman David Throne has apologized for making a
Speaker 2: racial slur he made jourin a House Budget committee hearing.
Speaker 5: In all honesty, I'm actually not surprised.
Speaker 6: Brandon Brooks of Prince George's County says Maryland sent to Kennedy,
Speaker 6: David Thron's use of a racist word in Congress Thursday
Speaker 6: is no big shock.
Speaker 5: I've observed other situations where derogatory languages such as that
Speaker 5: is used freely in a white household, Caucasian household. Is
Speaker 5: no accountability because he keeps happening.
Speaker 3: White feel comfortable using this type of terminology and thinking
Speaker 3: that it's okay because that's the playbook that Trump is using.
Speaker 6: Trone declined and interview requests, but in a statement he
Speaker 6: says that the attempted to use.
Speaker 1: The word boogaboo.
Speaker 6: But quote, I used a phrase that is offensive and
Speaker 6: that has a long, dark terror history and should have
Speaker 6: never been used in any conversation.
Speaker 3: Well, the Democrats are using a Trump's playbook of racial slurs,
Speaker 3: and I guess, I guess we're doomed. Listening to that
Speaker 3: news report, I'm even more confused. I still don't know
Speaker 3: why he would be quoting Beyonce, Kelly and Michelle in
Speaker 3: a Senate hearing. I don't see where there was room
Speaker 3: for bugaboo. Definitely wasn't no room for jigaboo. David also
Speaker 3: acknowledged his privilege as a white man and an elected official,
Speaker 3: recognizing his responsibility for the words he uses.
Speaker 1: Particularly in moments of intensity.
Speaker 3: Moments of intensity, that is an accurate phrase because I
Speaker 3: was always told to pay attention to what people say
Speaker 3: out of anger, because they've been dying to tell you that. Okay,
Speaker 3: David Throne been wanting to call someone at jigaboo for
Speaker 3: a long time now. I looked up the definition of jigaboo.
Speaker 3: All it means, from what I could find is it's
Speaker 3: just used as an insult and contemptuous term for a
Speaker 3: black person.
Speaker 1: That's it.
Speaker 3: So this isn't one of those times you can blame
Speaker 3: this on the Republicans, because this man, David Thrown, is
Speaker 3: a Democrat, and you know, y'all want to always show
Speaker 3: us the difference between Democrats and Republicans. But at the
Speaker 3: end of the day, the day gonna end with one
Speaker 3: of these white men, regardless of party, calling you something
Speaker 3: you don't want to be called. Please let Chelsea handle it.
Speaker 3: Give David Thrown the biggest he.
Speaker 1: Hee haw hee haw. That is way too much. Dan Maynes,
Speaker 1: Kathy Griffin get in on this. Please give this giant
Speaker 1: jar male the biggest he haw. I'm not fighting the urge.
Speaker 1: Do it go slur for slur? Do it no? Don't
Speaker 1: go s yes, you gotta grow up. If I can't
Speaker 1: say that's no, I'm not gonna go slow. I see
Speaker 1: Chris Rock, I'm not gonna.
Speaker 3: Go slur for slur. I'm not gonna see Chris macis Mac?
Speaker 1: What's up Mac? How you guys doing? Big macis hell?

Speaker 7: But I heard the donkey, and I was thinking to myself,
Speaker 7: you know, people make his mistakes. Like you said, he's
Speaker 7: used the term a lot and it upset us. It
Speaker 7: upset me when I heard it. But you know what,
Speaker 7: black people, you make things easier when they are in song.
