Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to wok F Daily with
Speaker 1: me your girl, Daniel Moody recording from the home bunker. Folks,
Speaker 1: let me start out on this Friday. It's gonna be
Speaker 1: a combo effect of fucking and feel it, because my God,
Speaker 1: do things just get on my nerves. And I appreciate
Speaker 1: all of you who under my last video on Wednesday
Speaker 1: sent you know, just really thoughtful messages and well wishes
Speaker 1: and just encouragement. You know, we can all use it,
Speaker 1: I feel like in this moment in time, but especially
Speaker 1: I just appreciate knowing how the shows land for you all,
Speaker 1: because sometimes for me I finish and I'm just like
Speaker 1: emotionally distraught, and that is that's honestly the truth. But
Speaker 1: this fucking week, may I, I gotta tell you Suitgate,
Speaker 1: which is what folks are calling it around the nonsense
Speaker 1: that is happening in the Senate with regard to the
Speaker 1: change in dress code and also with the idea that
Speaker 1: decorum is what the Republican Party wants. Give me a
Speaker 1: fucking break, Susan Collins us saying that, oh, well, I
Speaker 1: you know, then I'll just go down to votes in
Speaker 1: a bikini, bitch, do it. I don't give a fuck,
Speaker 1: and neither do the American people, because it is clearly
Speaker 1: not about what you are wearing. It is about how
Speaker 1: you are voting and what the fuck it is that
Speaker 1: you were saying. Right, So miss me with the oh, well,
Speaker 1: this is a dignified body. No, it is not. If
Speaker 1: it was a dignified and deliberative body, then guess what
Speaker 1: it would have done when it had two opportunities. It
Speaker 1: would have voted to impeach Donald Trump because it would
Speaker 1: have put the country ahead of its part and power.
Speaker 1: But you all didn't do that. Right. You have members
Speaker 1: of your party that are giving hand jobs at family
Speaker 1: theater events. Right. You have members of your party that
Speaker 1: have been investigated for sex trafficking. Right. You have members
Speaker 1: of your party that find no problem in screaming down
Speaker 1: and shouting down the President of the United States at
Speaker 1: the State of the Union. Right. You have a leader
Speaker 1: of your party that talks about grabbing women by the pussy,
Speaker 1: that is going around to his rallies and signing women's boobs.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Abraham Lincoln wouldn't have done that. So
Speaker 1: miss me with your fucking idea around decorum and what
Speaker 1: it means to be a dignified body. You don't even
Speaker 1: know how to be a dignified fucking party. Okay with
Speaker 1: the riff rap gutter rats that you have allowed to
Speaker 1: take over, Miss me with it. You saw that on
Speaker 1: the House floor during those fifteen those fourteen failed votes
Speaker 1: for that fish, that's your price, Speaker of the House,
Speaker 1: that two members of Congress almost came fist to blows.
Speaker 1: But this is the party that wants the lecturers on Decora,
Speaker 1: Fox News wants to run segments about suits. Give me
Speaker 1: a break, friends. It's like it's as if they think
Speaker 1: all of us are stupid, right, that we are just
Speaker 1: sitting around and just believe the words that are coming
Speaker 1: out of coming out of their mouths as opposed to
Speaker 1: the actions that they display on a regular basis. We
Speaker 1: had a member just recently want to attack Merrick Garland
Speaker 1: write and say that he slow walked investigations on Hillary
Speaker 1: Clinton and slow walked on Hunter Biden, but went full
Speaker 1: speed ahead on Donald Trump. And the insurrectionists were filled
Speaker 1: with people pushing baby cards and they were just good
Speaker 1: citizens and tourists that wanted their country to do better
Speaker 1: for them. Bitch, shut up Republicans please stop rewriting what
Speaker 1: it is that we all saw with our own you
Speaker 1: fucking eyes. And you're right about one thing. Yeah, Marrey
Speaker 1: Garland does slow walk. He slow walks every fucking thing.
Speaker 1: Because the reason why that we have an insurrectionist at
Speaker 1: the top of the ticket right now is because he
Speaker 1: decided to not start investigating him until last fucking year
Speaker 1: two years have passed, right, and was hoping maybe Donald
Speaker 1: Trump won't run for president, so I won't have to
Speaker 1: do my job. So that's the only thing that you're
Speaker 1: right about. But talking about the the insurrectionists being filled
Speaker 1: with people that were pushing babies, right, that were just
Speaker 1: well meaning citizens, bitch. We saw them climbing walls, clabbering
Speaker 1: the police, shitting in the Capitol building. What are you
Speaker 1: talking about. No matter how many times that the Republican
Speaker 1: Party wants to say that this was just some type
Speaker 1: of lost tourist group, all you have to say are
Speaker 1: run the tapes from every fucking angle, thousands of people.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump was made aware. Cassidy Hutchinson told us the
Speaker 1: people that are in the crowd, sir, they have weapons,
Speaker 1: They're not here to harm me. Let them through. You
Speaker 1: want to talk about decorum. You want to talk about
Speaker 1: suits and ties. I don't give a fuck. This Republican
Speaker 1: Party has zero decorum, has zero class, has zero tact
Speaker 1: and zero care about democracy or this country. So you
Speaker 1: can distract with all of your talk around what it
Speaker 1: is that people are wearing. I care more about what
Speaker 1: people are doing or not doing, and the people inside
Speaker 1: of this Republican Party, what they are doing is continuing
Speaker 1: on with their coup to undo American democracy, continue on
Speaker 1: with their desire to not only police the wombs of people,
Speaker 1: but also police their movement. Right that are making it
Speaker 1: sure that if you're right child is raped, that they
Speaker 1: have absolutely no recourse right that they believe. You know
Speaker 1: that any child is a gift from God, right doesn't
Speaker 1: matter the trauma that they were born out of. These
Speaker 1: are the same people that are taking books off of
Speaker 1: the shelf and saying that your kids are not old
Speaker 1: enough to be uncomfortable with this history, but with this
Speaker 1: country's past history, but you're old enough to be named
Speaker 1: a mother at ten years old, which was an actual
Speaker 1: case of a young girl that was raped at ten
Speaker 1: years old, had to leave her state so that she
Speaker 1: could go to another one to get an abortion, not
Speaker 1: old enough to read a book, but old enough to
Speaker 1: breastfeed and be a mother. That's the Republican Party, right
Speaker 1: want to keep people with uteruses under educated in a house,
Speaker 1: locked in to motherhood, no opportunities and no pathway out.
Speaker 1: I just and so when I see this story, like,
Speaker 1: I couldn't not say anything about it because on its
Speaker 1: face it's ridiculous, But it also goes to show you
Speaker 1: the blatant hypocrisy that these people still believe in their
Speaker 1: minds that they're the ones that are dignified, that they're
Speaker 1: the ones that are the grown ups in the room.
Speaker 1: When you allowed the clowns to run the circus, right like,
Speaker 1: you lost all credibility. When Marjorie Taylor Green is your
Speaker 1: mascot for Republican morality, you've lost all credibility. You got
Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy right now, who everyone is writing articles about
Speaker 1: the fact that he is failing because we thought he
Speaker 1: was going to succeed. He failed fourteen times before he
Speaker 1: could get it up write the votes. So give me
Speaker 1: a break, because we thought that he was going to
Speaker 1: be some type of memorable and powerful speaker. I don't
Speaker 1: think so. But if we have a government shutdown, which
Speaker 1: it's looking more and more likely that that is going
Speaker 1: to happen. It is going to arrest, surely on the
Speaker 1: shoulders of Kevin McCarthy for his inability to get his
Speaker 1: caucus together because he gave the keys to the car
Speaker 1: to the Freedom Caucus. The Freedom Caucus doesn't give a
Speaker 1: fuck about freedom. The Freedom Caucus doesn't also give a
Speaker 1: fuck about law and order. The Freedom Caucus doesn't give
Speaker 1: a fuck about the American public or also making good
Speaker 1: on our debts. The Freedom Calcus cares a lot about
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden's laptop, though, and trying to bring down President Biden.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing that I want people to understand and
Speaker 1: just know. They've been investigating Hunter Biden for five years,
Speaker 1: five years, and they came out with some trumped up
Speaker 1: charges that are politicized because anyone else wouldn't be charged,
Speaker 1: but because he's a Biden, he's being charged. But because
Speaker 1: Jared Kushner right, and Evanka Trump are associated with Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: they can't be charged, even though they were members of
Speaker 1: the actual administration that they gripped it off of and
Speaker 1: got two billion dollars from the Saudis. Republicans don't want
Speaker 1: an investigation into Trump, who is blatantly crimbing up and
Speaker 1: down this motherfucking block. Right, But five years you got
Speaker 1: more than enough time, more than enough taxpayer dollars to
Speaker 1: come up with something, and you come up with bupkis
Speaker 1: You come up right with the Department of Justice coming
Speaker 1: out and saying that they're going to charge him with
Speaker 1: some gun charges that they know are flabby because they
Speaker 1: were already thrown out in court someplace else that said
Speaker 1: whether or not somebody has been on drugs apparently is
Speaker 1: not an issue with them having a firearm and goes
Speaker 1: against their Second Amendment rights. But that's the charge that
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice came out with, why because of
Speaker 1: pressure from the right. So folks, you know, we see
Speaker 1: these things, right, and we see these stories and we
Speaker 1: get caught up in them. And I appreciate uh Senator
Speaker 1: John Fetterman being like, you know, fuck this group, these
Speaker 1: bunch of jag offs is what he called them. And
Speaker 1: I was just like, you know what, I got to agree.
Speaker 1: I don't care what people wear. I don't I care
Speaker 1: what they do. Right, you want to go and cast
Speaker 1: a vote in a fucking bikini in a two to
Speaker 1: two in a you know, in a scuba suit. I
Speaker 1: don't give a fuck so long as the votes that
Speaker 1: you were casting are about progressing and not depressing or
Speaker 1: opressing the American public. So that is basically all of
Speaker 1: my fuckets. Oh no, there's not Sorry, there's another one
Speaker 1: before I move into my feeling portion of Friday. But
Speaker 1: the other piece, friends, is this Rupert Murdoch has announced
Speaker 1: that he is stepping down from his post that he's
Speaker 1: held to destroy the minds of Fox viewers over the
Speaker 1: last seventy years. Seventy years, this man has been funneling
Speaker 1: absolute lies and bullshit, and now, at the end of
Speaker 1: his life, his network has been slapped with I don't
Speaker 1: even know how many lawsuits at this point. Right, they've
Speaker 1: already had to pay out nearly a billion dollars. And
Speaker 1: I would love, I would love Rupert Murdoch to live
Speaker 1: long enough to see that god forsaken network go absolutely bankrupt.
Speaker 1: That's what I want, right, That's what I want. I
Speaker 1: don't want. I don't even want them to be shut down,
Speaker 1: you know, or regulated because they want to use Oh,
Speaker 1: it's free speech. It's free speech to lie to the
Speaker 1: American people. No, I don't care about that. I want
Speaker 1: the whole place to be shuddered because they are bankrupt
Speaker 1: from paying out to all of the people that they
Speaker 1: have lied on. That's what I want to see. And
Speaker 1: you know, he passes his evil wand down to his
Speaker 1: son Lachlan Lackey that we can call him, because that's
Speaker 1: what he is, is his father's Lackey, right, Who's going
Speaker 1: to carry the torch of right wing extremism, white supremacy
Speaker 1: and lies. So bravo, hope you can feel Daddy doctor
Speaker 1: Evil's shoes moving on though, folks. I posted this image
Speaker 1: on my Instagram yesterday that was probably one of the
Speaker 1: most beautiful images I had seen, shot from a storm
Speaker 1: in Arizona. And if you go to my Instagram at
Speaker 1: D two sense dee twcnts, you see this shot of
Speaker 1: a gray sky with two major lightning bolts coming down
Speaker 1: to the ground and it meets a rainbow. The lightning
Speaker 1: bolt actually meets a rainbow. And when I saw the
Speaker 1: image I first saw it on Heavy Discussions Instagram page.
Speaker 1: I was just in awe this lightning bolt in the
Speaker 1: midst of this storm meeting a rainbow, and it was
Speaker 1: such a perfect visual representation of the times that we
Speaker 1: are living in. And what I put in my caption
Speaker 1: was essentially that this is the visual representation of the
Speaker 1: violent tempest that we are living in. Whether you are
Speaker 1: in the United States, you are in Europe, you are
Speaker 1: in a country on the continent of Africa, you are
Speaker 1: in Asia, anywhere things are not trending well. Climate crises
Speaker 1: are headline issues every day, earthquakes, floods, fires that are
Speaker 1: taking thousands, thousands of people's lives in an instant, shootings
Speaker 1: right that are taking people's lives in an instant. And
Speaker 1: yet the picture to me is also a reminder that
Speaker 1: all storms don't last. And I forget whether it was
Speaker 1: Maya Angelou or Tony Morrison who said that eventually storms
Speaker 1: will run out of rain and you will see a
Speaker 1: brighter day. And I think that what is important to
Speaker 1: consistently keep in mind as we navigate really rough, rough
Speaker 1: emotional terrain. I don't even know how to put it
Speaker 1: into words, but many of you folks that listen to
Speaker 1: the shows commented under my Instagram picture saying that they
Speaker 1: are struggling, they are struggling to center joy, they are
Speaker 1: struggling to find joy. Many of you posted underneath this
Speaker 1: video my patrons that said that, you know, they know
Speaker 1: that it's important, but it's a struggle and it is
Speaker 1: Joy requires intention, right, it requires us on a daily basis,
Speaker 1: particularly when we have so many things like just biting
Speaker 1: at our feet, to find the things that we truly
Speaker 1: love that sustain us. Because I'm going to tell you,
Speaker 1: friends that rage alone, anger alone is not sustainable. I
Speaker 1: am learning that every single day that you can only
Speaker 1: hold the hate, the anger, the frustration for so long
Speaker 1: the weight becomes too hard to bear. You gotta put
Speaker 1: it down. So that picture, for me, was this beautiful
Speaker 1: visual representation of the fact that we are in the
Speaker 1: midst of a storm. But at the end of the storm,
Speaker 1: the sky's clear, the sun does come back out again.
Speaker 1: But you have to be, as my mother says to me,
Speaker 1: your own side unshine in the midst of the storm.
Speaker 1: You have got to be your own ray of light
Speaker 1: in this darkness, whatever that looks like for you. But
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, if you are struggling, just know that
Speaker 1: I am right there along with you. There are days
Speaker 1: when I finish recording and I am in tears, and
Speaker 1: I sit right here in front of my computer and
Speaker 1: I weep. There are interviews that I've had to get
Speaker 1: off of quickly after. I thank the people for their
Speaker 1: time because the stories that they are sharing are heartbreaking.
Speaker 1: We feel because we are human, because we care, because
Speaker 1: we want to be of surface, right, we want to
Speaker 1: be of service, I should say, and not on the surface.
Speaker 1: And so know that you are not alone in your struggle,
Speaker 1: and that joy requires intentionality. Happiness is fleeting. Happiness comes
Speaker 1: in some moments, some relationships you know, and then it goes, oh, boy,
Speaker 1: is something that you really right have to plant and sew.
Speaker 1: So I just want folks to continue to pay attention
Speaker 1: to what is going on, but also pay attention to
Speaker 1: what is going on inside of you, because the way
Speaker 1: that they win is through us feeling hopeless. The way
Speaker 1: that they win is through us moving through disease into
Speaker 1: disease that takes us down and takes us out. And
Speaker 1: we need all of us to be healthy and whole
Speaker 1: and healing as we move through this next phase of
Speaker 1: the world, right, because it's not just the next phase
Speaker 1: of America. It's the next phase of the world that
Speaker 1: we are witnessing that we are transitioning in, and it
Speaker 1: is going to depend on all of us whether that
Speaker 1: transision is good or bad right or mixed right because
Speaker 1: we live in pul polarity. But you know, take a
Speaker 1: look at that image when you do have a chance,
Speaker 1: you know, leave a comment under the page, or leave
Speaker 1: a comment if you are one of my wonderful, amazing,
Speaker 1: loyal patrons underneath this video and tell me what it
Speaker 1: brings up for you. What do you see when you
Speaker 1: see it and again share with each other? How were
Speaker 1: you sustaining joy? Right? It comes up and it goes down.
Speaker 1: It comes up and it goes down, because that is life.
Speaker 1: But how do you bring yourself back up? How do
Speaker 1: you decide to continue keeping on and keeping on? That's
Speaker 1: how by sharing and caring is how I think that
Speaker 1: we will make it through. That is it for me today,
Speaker 1: dear friends on Woke af as always, power to the
Speaker 1: people and to all the people. Power, get woke and
Speaker 1: stay woke as fun
