1 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to Okay f Daily with 2 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 1: Meet your Girl Danielle Moody once again recording from yes 3 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:22,360 Speaker 1: the Brooklyn Bunker. Folks, I am very excited to end 4 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 1: this week with our friend Mark Thompson, host of Make 5 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: It Plain for our series Make It Woke plain as Fuck. 6 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: We still haven't come up with the name, but friends, 7 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: you know this week, these first seven long days in 8 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 1: January have been a lot and Mark and I get 9 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: into a conversation on the reflections about where we are 10 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 1: three hundred and sixty five days after an attempt to 11 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 1: violently overthrow our government. Where we are as Biden and 12 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris stood up before the American people and finally 13 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 1: after a year, proclaimed that guess who is responsible for 14 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: the insurrection? Guess who should be in jail right now, 15 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. But because of the likes of Joe Mansion 16 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: and Kursen's cinema, it is likely that our democracy is 17 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: not just in a free fall. It is likely just 18 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 1: to fall over a cliff for good. And why is 19 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: that We're not going to be able to put the 20 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 1: blame squarely on the shoulders of the Republican Party, Because 21 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: one they are a death cult, that does not care 22 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: about democracy, that does not care about the public health. 23 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: And we know these things, but the reality is, what 24 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: we also know is that we have two traders inside 25 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: of our party that the party leadership itself refuses to name, 26 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: that the party leadership itself refuses to call out. Just 27 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: this week, it was announced that the GOP put a 28 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: million dollars in dark money into West Virginia. West Virginia 29 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: is poor as fuck, but they are spending a million 30 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: dollars on television ads to convince Joe Mansion to continue 31 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: with his own personal insurrection, not nuking the filibuster, the 32 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: racist ass filibuster, so that we can get voting rights done. 33 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: They know how important this last lynchpin in our democracy is, 34 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: and they are willing to spend that amount of money 35 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: in one of the poorest states in the nation in 36 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: order to ensure that people like you and me are 37 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: not able to vote. We have an uphill battle ahead 38 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: of us in the coming months, and frankly, folks, we're 39 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: not even going to make it to the end of 40 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: the year. The election is in November. You see, there 41 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: is a mass exodus from Democrats to seek reelection and 42 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: Why is that, Well, if you listen to some of them, 43 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: they are telling you that the job has become too dangerous. 44 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: There are metal detectors right now all around the Capitol building. 45 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: It is not because of the presumed threat of outside 46 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: agitators coming back of outside insurrectionists. Democrats are afraid of 47 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: their own fucking colleagues, and yet that's not a constant 48 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 1: topic on the news every day. They are afraid for 49 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 1: their own lives and the lives of their family members. 50 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: They're tired of the threats, and so they are leaving 51 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: in mass. The same thing is happening at our city 52 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,239 Speaker 1: and state levels as well. Reported this week on CNN. 53 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: Do you know where the Proud Boys have put their 54 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: latest target. It's not on Congress, and it's not on 55 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: the Senate. It's not even on the presidency. They have 56 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: decided to do what Steve Bannon has been telling them 57 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: to do. Go village, buy village, and take over the 58 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: school boards. So then you have a bunch of white supremacists, 59 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: right wingers that are on your school boards that they're 60 00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: dictating what's your children learn. I see in our future 61 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: a mass pullout right of those that are middle income 62 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: and high income to be able to pull their kids 63 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: out of public schools, which will do what to poor 64 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: and low income students. They will deal with dilapidated schools. 65 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: They will deal with the federal government pulling out funds 66 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: because now all of a sudden they need to put 67 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: it into charter schools or give more money into religious schools. 68 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: And this is exactly what happened after the Board, after 69 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: Brown versus the Board of Education was passed. When I 70 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: tell you that we are regressing right now, this is 71 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. We thought that these fights were 72 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: in the past, and they are right in front of us. 73 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: And I do not think that the Democratic Party that 74 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: we have right now is prepared or senses the urgency 75 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: of this moment. So Mark and I are going to 76 00:04:54,760 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 1: tackle this conversation and much much more coming up next, folks. 77 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: I am always so happy when I get to do 78 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: our monthly segment with our friend and the host of 79 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: Make It Plane, Mark Thompson, for our Make It Woke 80 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: monthly segment here with DCP. And it just so happens 81 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: that this week, as we are ready to engage in 82 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: our conversation, that it is the unfortunate anniversary of a 83 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: violent attempt by Trump's supporters and enablers to overthrow our government, 84 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: to thwart our democracy and institute in an era of 85 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: authoritarianism and fascism in this country. All over broadcasts for 86 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: this entire week, folks have been giving their thoughts and 87 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: their reflections, and we've been seeing videos over and over again. 88 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 1: And so I am very excited to sit down with you, 89 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: dear friend Mark and cap off.

We're 108 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: in a crazy situation and I'm gonna say something. I'm 109 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: not gonna custom. I'm gonna say something that's gonna sure 110 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna come off as extremely controversial. Um. The speeches 111 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: January six speeches and all the positions that Biden inherit 112 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: and everybody else has taken off Democrats. That's that's fine. 113 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: But what people are not embracing, what people are ignoring. 114 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: There was an insurrection January six. There's an ongoing insurrection 115 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: going on today. Joe Mansion is a twenty four seven insurrectionist. Ye, 116 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: as long as he won't nuke to filibuster. And so 117 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: you know, you know how in life you can't sometimes 118 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: don't see the far as for the tree. You think 119 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: the fight you're in is the real fight. M h. 120 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: It's kind of give an example, you know, gives a 121 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: minister council couples sometimes, you know, and there's a vehicle 122 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: backing up beeping like you know, but that's we're in 123 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: New York, y'all something. Star. Husband's not getting along with 124 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: his wife. But we just don't get long. We don't 125 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: like each other. But husband, let me remind you, you're 126 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: also an alcoholic. So is is what is the problem? 127 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: What is the overarching problem? What is the issue that's 128 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: really affecting this marriage? So here we are we in 129 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: the democracy is in jeopardy is because of Trump. But 130 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: then you've got this other joker who is who is 131 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: also preventing democracy from going forward and putting the firewalls 132 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 1: in place to be the John Lewis Act or whatever 133 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna call it act this time to prevent Republicans 134 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: from attacking democras. January six is just one part of 135 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: that pie. And I fear my dear that Republicans. I'm sorry, 136 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: the Democrats, the leadership, the consultant class which I always 137 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: call it, that's really making decisions. I think January sixth 138 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: and all, we heard that in that commemoration. That's what 139 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: they're gonna run on in twenty twenty two. That's it. 140 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 1: That's gonna be the one thing. And I think they 141 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: think that's gonna carry people to the polls and allow 142 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: them to hold the majority in the House. I think 143 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:53,239 Speaker 1: that's naive. I think that's a mistake because while Republicans 144 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: and this is this is one of our faults as Democrats, progressives, liberals, 145 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 1: people on level whatever, one of our we don't have 146 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: a lot of pages. So where Republicans couldn't get roll 147 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: overturned one year later in seventy four, they've been very patient, 148 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: very vigilant, very diligent fifty years. Not e're gonna get it. 149 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: We want it now. And I get there's a desperation 150 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 1: in that because there's so many negative things going on, 151 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 1: but we don't get it now. We're gonna give power 152 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: back to them, and they want they want to run. 153 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: Just on Jane Wary sixth, why can't Biden deliver anything now? 154 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: Because of Joe Manchin. He he can't even look at it, 155 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:30,719 Speaker 1: you know which, to be honest with it, says we 156 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: can't even look at him and say, Joe Biden, you 157 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 1: really ain't doing nothing now. It's not Joe Biden not 158 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: doing nothing. One man is blocking it. So that to 159 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: me is the filipbuster is an insurrectionist too. Look up, 160 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: Mariam go to Mary Webster Dixonary look up filibuster or 161 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:55,199 Speaker 1: filipbuster or and the definition definition is insurrectionist. That's the 162 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: early definition of the world because that's what they were 163 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: doing that in Latin America, trying to annex slave state 164 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: by fomenting insurrections. And that's what philibusterers we're going down 165 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: there to do. And so that's what Joe Mansion is doing. 166 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: And so I'm just being real. And I know people 167 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: all marget away when you talk that way, because we 168 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: want to just oh, we want to just decried January six, 169 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: January six? Jan where six? Jane where six? Well, I'm sorry. 170 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: It from the lens of those of us who deal 171 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: with issues of justice and racism every day. It's never 172 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: just one thing. No, Dan Were, I don't know about you, Nail. 173 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: Did Dan Were six surprise you? Disurprise me? You know? 174 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 1: I forgot about it. I will say this because you've 175 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 1: made so many good points, and so I will say 176 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: this on your last question and then go back to 177 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: the beginning. Okay, So did January six surprise me? Um? No? 178 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: Because I did believe that something violent was going to happen. 179 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: Why because Donald Trump told us that something violent was 180 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: going to happen because all of his supporters said watch 181 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: out because in his debate quote unquote debate or whatever 182 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: the hell that was that he did with Joe Biden, 183 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: he told the Proud Boys and the Boogaloo boys to 184 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: stand back and stand by when he was asked to 185 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: decry them. So did I think Was I surprised? No? 186 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: But was I aghast? Was I horrified at the images 187 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: of our Capitol building being under siege by a mob 188 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: of angry, rabid white people. Absolutely, because I said this 189 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: yesterday on Woke a f I hold the Capitol Building 190 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. In a sacred place in my 191 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: heart right like I am a person who believed in 192 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: the possibility of a small group of people changing things. 193 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 1: I believed in the power of the people. It's why 194 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: I went to Washington, DC after high school. It's why 195 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: I studied political science, It's why I went to work 196 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: on the Hill and become a fellow, It's why I 197 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: do the work that I do. And so to see 198 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 1: people desecrate that place in the manner that they did 199 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: was horrifying. But it just shows me and what I 200 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: said is this, and this is a question that I 201 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: want to ask you too, Mark, is that you know 202 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: I wrote a piece where I quoted James Baldwin in it, 203 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 1: and James Baldwin and I think it was like nineteen 204 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: sixty nine. I think it was an interview that he 205 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: was doing, and he was talking about how when white 206 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 1: people scream right about patriotism, when they say, he said, 207 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: as a matter of fact, give me liberty or give 208 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: me death White America, the white world cheers him as 209 00:13:56,360 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: a patriot. A black man and I will obstitute black 210 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: person could say the very same thing word for word, 211 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: and they are hailed as a criminal and in this 212 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: day and age, a terrorist. Right, And so you know, 213 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: the understanding, the foundation, the understanding of what it means 214 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: to be a patriot. I'm going to say that these 215 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: quote unquote conservatives, these Trumpers, that these people that embody 216 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: Trumpism and white supremacy in such a bold way have 217 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: no true understanding of what it actually means to be 218 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: a patriot. Biden said in his speech. You know that 219 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: you patriotism isn't just about when you win, right, It's 220 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: not just about because of the power and the privileges 221 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: that you receive. And so you know, do you feel 222 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: that white America has an understanding even of what patriotism 223 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: right and and and what democracy it's supposed to be. Well, I, 224 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: unfortunately I never really shared that optimism about the capital 225 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: and all of that, because it's never really been that 226 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: and we're just seeing the extreme of it now. It 227 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: wasn't that way twenty thirty, forty years ago. I mean, 228 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: this has always been a battle. But you know, the 229 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: only thing that surprised me about January sixth is that 230 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: they didn't kill more people, That they literally didn't physically 231 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: blow up the capital. And I think the only reason 232 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: that didn't happen is because it was not very well organized. 233 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: It was only organized with a handful of people, and 234 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: everybody else would just sheet just following along, and once 235 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: they got caught up in it, they didn't you know, 236 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: They're just like, yeah, let's just go And they couldn't 237 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: go out front and say to the masses, let's go 238 00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: up here and blow up the capital. So, you know, 239 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: I think that the dangerous place we're in is minimizing 240 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: and denying that. What is also happening every single day 241 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: on Capitol Hill is an extension of January sixth. It 242 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: continual of January sixth, and Democrats have functioned. Don't don't 243 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: say anthing bad about Joe Mansion. We got to bring 244 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: him along, let's kiss up, let's let's let's stroke him 245 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: as much as we can. Uh, it's it's too late 246 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: for that. So Democrats need to say, forget about black foot. 247 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: Let's say talk about black folks. Just as a party, 248 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: you have someone who's registered in your party ensuring that 249 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: your party will be voted out of power. Let's just 250 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: let's take away to the racial constituencies agender, because let's 251 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: take away all the people in the tent, and let's 252 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: just talk about the survival of the party as a 253 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: corporate institution. There's a member in your camp that is 254 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: working for the other side, right, and and what what 255 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: do you do with that? And let mena tell us 256 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: it's insurrectionist. Joe Mansion would not be the Senator if 257 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: not for black and progressive voters in West Virginia. Yeah, 258 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: he feels a great loyally the Trump voters. Well, why 259 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: don't you own anything to the people who were the 260 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: margin of victory for your arrested desk? Why don't Why 261 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 1: don't you feel like you owe something to them, and 262 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: then I'm only mentioned to him because he's a little 263 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 1: sade kick. I don't even know what Nobody knows what 264 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 1: she's talking about, what her agend is, other than being, 265 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: you know, just kind of disturb the trouble off her rocket. 266 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: I'm talking about sentiment. No, I know who you're talking about. Yeah, yeah, well, 267 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: I just I don't know if the audience knew, but 268 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: y'all probably know because y'all every day, Um, what is 269 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: that really all about? So so we we are at 270 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 1: an existential crisis, so so so so to talk about 271 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: January six, We're never gonna let this happen again. You're 272 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: letting it happen again every day as long as Joe 273 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 1: Mansion is a shot call, you know, and everybody knows 274 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 1: how to get the people people, somebody says, Danielle Mark, 275 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: y'all not gonna do that today. They're gonna figure out 276 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 1: way to stop us. I don't care what it is. 277 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: There is a way to check No one is. I 278 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 1: don't know anybody who's uncheckable. Trump even tries it, and 279 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: that's this is it. But that's such a good point, Mark, 280 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: because nobody is uncheckable right now, right Now the GOP 281 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 1: has put a million dollar ad buy ad right in 282 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: West Virginia. It is the cheapest goddamn market in the 283 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: country because they nobody fucking lived there, right a million dollars. 284 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 1: Where the hell of the Democrats been when people have 285 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 1: been saying, get to the people in West Virginia. Now, 286 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: I know that Reverend Barber last year, in the height 287 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 1: of the pandemic, took a bunch of folks to West 288 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: Virginia to go in March. I was there, and I'm saying, 289 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: but where was your backup? Where? Where was the backup 290 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: from the big d Democratic Party? Where is the backup 291 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 1: from the consulting class to put the money in the 292 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: area where you know? This motherfucker's mind needs to be changed? 293 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: And I continue to say, not only do I believe 294 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 1: that Mansion and Cinema are our secret agents, because it's 295 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: not a secret, but I believe that they have cut 296 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: themselves a deal. When this ship goes south and Republicans 297 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 1: gain power, I believe that they have cut themselves a deal. 298 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: I would I want somebody to prove me wrong. This 299 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: is one of my theories that I'm rocking with because 300 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: otherwise it doesn't make any sense. Well, here's and I 301 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: hear what you're saying. But here here's the problem. And 302 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: this is where we again, we can't just talk about 303 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: Dame were six twenty one. I talked about Janie with 304 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: six twenty twenty two. No matter how much money I mean, 305 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: I don't even know why Republicans wasting their money in 306 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: West Virginia. Joe Mansion is an incumbent, not a free 307 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: election for a couple of years or more. He does 308 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: not listen to anyone in West Virginia. They are irrelevant. So, folks, 309 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: we're really talking about a maximum democratic situation. So here, 310 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 1: I am a senator from a state and I've decided 311 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 1: I'm not going to listen to a mumbling word of 312 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: a single constituent in my state. I'm gonna do whatever 313 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: i want to do. And it just so happens what 314 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: I want to do favors the right wing. But Joe Mansion, 315 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: we went down there. There's no better statement than the 316 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: people in West Virginia, white folk. I was around white 317 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 1: people with I've never been around so many white for 318 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: every one time I can't remember when who were talking 319 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: about what Joe Mansion was doing to them. How Joe 320 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: Mansion was hurting them. He does not care. So I 321 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 1: don't even know the answer to that riddle. What could 322 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: the backup have been? Because when we were there, it 323 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 1: was like we were just screaming into the wind, like 324 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: we were fighting, Righten Mill. And again that's the problem 325 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: to see. I'm Jimmy Carters right, I'm gonna take a 326 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: step further because then we can do this from the 327 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: lens as black people, because democracy never really has worked 328 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 1: for us, and really this system is broken and I'll 329 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: tell you something are in a minute, it's gonna be obsolete. 330 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 1: And you know, Danielle and not come on here every 331 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: day and the other folk we talk about, we do 332 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: the political prognostication and punditry and try to figure this out. 333 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: I don't have an answer for none of it. So 334 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: me and Danielle, I'm up from now. We might decide 335 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 1: we need to do a sports show because we don't 336 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: have no answer. We might need to do sports, Danielle, 337 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: because that's the only thing, that's the only short thing 338 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: you would not come on and talk about today and 339 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: make some sense out of it, because You're right, you 340 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: had a lost quol question. Why can't they be a backup. 341 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 1: Go spend some money with constituents. And what I'm saying 342 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,880 Speaker 1: you from what I witnessed, if Democrats think ten million 343 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: dollars in West Virginia, it wouldn't matter. It wouldn't matter. 344 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,239 Speaker 1: It would not man, it wouldn't even matter if they 345 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: changed the thousand miles and really haint them many matters 346 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,159 Speaker 1: and change because because because even some of them to 347 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 1: take them. Everybody who margu who that's going the Democrat 348 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: people in West Virginia know they poor man's like West 349 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 1: Virginia is depressing. Let me tell y'all something. If you 350 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 1: think you're doing bad in life, you need some self motivation. 351 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: Go to West Virginia. If you think you have problems 352 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: where you live, in your sight and your family. We 353 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: went to West Virginia, and I know what I am, 354 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: and I know how I'm viewed. White folks running towards me. 355 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: Oh we got to talk. Wait minute, what's going on? 356 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: You know, normally, when you go to the restaurant or 357 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: to the watering hole, you're venting to to the people 358 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 1: who worked there, to the bartender, to the waitress. I 359 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 1: just reversed in West Virginia. I took you down there, 360 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: we couldn't eat because folks who worked there, the waitresses 361 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: in the restaurant, want to tell us about how bad 362 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 1: they have. That's and these are means are mostly white people. 363 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: But let me ask you this, as their telling you this, 364 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,719 Speaker 1: why has that man been in office from the local 365 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: level all the way up to Senate for forty years? Well, see, 366 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: I said, but I think that gets just another stuff 367 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: because in a place like that that is so rule, 368 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: you get some slick people to come in there. They 369 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: can fix a lot, they can maneuver a lot. Joe 370 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 1: Manchion has been a master maneuverer. And people don't have 371 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 1: the energy and wherewith all people aren't organized. So somebody 372 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: would name recognition can easily just keep running and keep 373 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 1: on winning. He might continue to be elected forever. But 374 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: he thinks that not only can he do that, he 375 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,239 Speaker 1: has to play to the interests on one side and 376 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 1: never once to the interests of the people who really 377 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: need the help. We're not again, we're not just talking 378 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: about black for poor people in West Virginia need build 379 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: back better. That's just the reality. It was sad if y'all. 380 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: I don't think white folks and be poor go to 381 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: West Virginia. It's totally unnecessary. Pain paint the picture, mark 382 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: what what? Because honestly, I've never been to West Virginia. 383 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: I have no desire to go there. I will never 384 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: go there probably in my whole life. Um, So paint 385 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: the picture for us, Um what what did you what? 386 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: When you say poor? Right, are we talking about poverty? 387 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: Are what are you seeing? And what are some of 388 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: the things that the waitresses, the waiters, the bartenders, the 389 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: service folk who you were able to engage with in 390 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, what were they saying to you? They 391 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: they didn't make enough money to make ends meet. The 392 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: wages are low. So it's on the spectrum between just 393 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: straight up poverty and low wages. So I didn't go 394 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: into a lot of places where there was just destitution 395 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 1: and have to I went to places I just go 396 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: to restaurant and get some meat, and people would talk 397 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: about and people just there's there's nothing nice down there, 398 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: you know, you and I in New York, I mean 399 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 1: you see people who who walk down the street looks 400 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: like they have something. Folcus in West Virginia just trying 401 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,719 Speaker 1: to make it day to day. And let me tell 402 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: you what else that happened you. Now you can go 403 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 1: to place and you talk to different in different people 404 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: independently of each other, but they all say the same thing. 405 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: So every where we went, we don't have this, we 406 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: don't have that. A lot of people want to open 407 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: up about the opioid crisis down there? Why is that? 408 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: Because of the desperation it's down there? Why is that? 409 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 1: Why is there? Why are these things? No? No, I 410 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 1: mean folks, a lot of folks to take take of us. 411 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: Take denal insurance for granted, you know what it means 412 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 1: not to have access to dental You know that can 413 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: kill you. You don't take care of your dog on teeth. 414 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,159 Speaker 1: So you get a little piece of insurance in West Virginia, 415 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,880 Speaker 1: but it doesn't cover everything else to copays a high. 416 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: But everywhere we went, people say the same thing. They 417 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 1: would tell their story and then they would say this, 418 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: all of them. And I'm talking to people separately, not 419 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,239 Speaker 1: in even in the same space. They will say this, 420 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: and rever Mark, all Joe Mansion does is zipped through 421 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 1: town in his Porsche. That's what. And I mean I 422 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: didn't bring up the porch. I would I go to 423 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 1: one place. All he does zip to shout in his 424 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: sports and I go to another place. All he does 425 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: is zip to town in his Porsche. Go to another place. 426 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,479 Speaker 1: All he does is zip through town in his Porsche. 427 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: So that's what he's known for. Keep me whipping righting 428 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: all through town. You know, you know, thinking he's flying 429 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,360 Speaker 1: with with with the hair plugs and hair plants, plant transplant. 430 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: He does that and and thinks that that's he's hip 431 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: and he's cool, I guess, but but it is. It 432 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,959 Speaker 1: is hurting the people there. I can't even say that 433 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 1: we were down then we would like it didn't even 434 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: feel like you know, you go to someplace and you 435 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,199 Speaker 1: could tell his parts. I can go to some states 436 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 1: or were with the Democratic constituency here in this state. Um, 437 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: in West Virginia, you can't tell from Republican because everybody's 438 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 1: either poor laway, so I asked when I would ask him, 439 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: and so I'm actually a Republican. Well, I'm an independent. 440 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 1: This had transcended that. And what Mbarba was able to 441 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: do is going in Gallvin ask some of that and 442 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 1: and talk to some of those people and get them 443 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 1: to try to That's why you know what I'm about, 444 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 1: Barbara is that he's talking about a moral revival, which 445 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 1: takes it beyond the partisan peace. This is about morality. 446 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,719 Speaker 1: What are we doing for people to survive? What are 447 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: we doing to make it better? Corporations making big money 448 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,399 Speaker 1: so they can pay Joe Manchin in cinema and people 449 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: can't even live. So that is that to me, folks, 450 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 1: i'n be honest with as bad as Jane where his 451 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: six was. And you know, we won't even get into, 452 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 1: you know, the politeness of Mary Garland. Look at y'all 453 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,640 Speaker 1: the Puerto Rican nationals who stormed the capital in the fifties, 454 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: each of them got you the fifties, seventy five years. 455 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: That's simply that's the end of round him. Suckers up, 456 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 1: give all fifty to seventy five years, just like you 457 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: gave the Puerto Ricans who went in the air demanding 458 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: their independence. They got fifty to seventy five years convictions 459 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: for doing that. So what is the I don't understand 460 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: the the hesitancy or the problem or the confusion around. 461 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: I mean, we understand it, Mark, like we we understand it. 462 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 1: We know exactly who gets the heavy sentences, We know 463 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:32,159 Speaker 1: exactly who gets the book thrown at them. And you know, 464 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: I said this the other day. You know, it is 465 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: the burden of proof for white America's so goddamn high. 466 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: You can have an everest of information and everest of 467 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: all of these things. And it's like, oh, well, we 468 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: need to take our time. Merritt Garland says, yes, we 469 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: need to take our time. You know, don't you know, 470 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: don't don't worry. We're gonna lock these people pull up 471 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: and our initial sentences are low, but they'll get higher. 472 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: And that's just how justice works. And I said, yeah, 473 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: justice works really interesting when it's white people that are defendants. 474 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: And I said, because the person that I continue to 475 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 1: bring up mark is Calif Browder. Calif Browder spent three 476 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: years in Rikers on suspicion of stealing a backpack. Right, 477 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: we have people that have been murdered, children murdered. Trayvon 478 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: Martin murdered under suspicion that he was doing something wrong 479 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: because he had a hood on. You had. Tamir Rice 480 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: murdered under suspicion that he was doing something wrong on 481 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: a playground that other twelve year olds aren't allowed to do. 482 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: So if suspicion can get black people in this country 483 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 1: lynched and beaten and murdered, trampled upon. Right, you're telling 484 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: me that hardcore evidence on video and pictures and text 485 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 1: messages can't get these motherfuckers in jail, can't get them indicted. 486 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: So you know, I don't. I don't feign ignorance anymore 487 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: or try to convince myself that there is some place 488 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: of neutrality to be at this grave moment in our country, 489 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: because there isn't. And the reason why we're here is 490 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: because we refuse to tell the truth. The reason why 491 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: we're here is because you know, I was listening to 492 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: CNN right before this and they have on this you know, extremist, 493 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: this extremist researcher, this analyst, and he's saying, you know, 494 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: why didn't we catch this before? And he's like, I 495 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 1: have no idea this was being organized in plain sight. 496 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: He goes, We've been telling people that this was happening. 497 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: You had an FBI report that was buried twelve years 498 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: ago during the Obama administration. They didn't even address it, right, 499 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: because we because whiteness does not see itself and a 500 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: damn sure doesn't see itself as criminal, and that that 501 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: is that is in fact, the problem why didn't Why 502 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: did every single police mechanism break down because they didn't 503 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: see because other white people don't see themselves as a threat. 504 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: That's why. And I'm liking until we address that reality, 505 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: until you can put your finger and speak to that truth, 506 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: I don't know where we go. So what's your favorite sport? Yeah? Yeah, 507 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: I'm about We could I could be you know, I could. 508 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 1: I could brush up on my understanding of soccer, right, 509 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 1: and and and do that. Do you like to cook? 510 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: I do? So you could do a cooking show, make 511 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: it gourmet, make it gourmet. I mean, so we got 512 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,479 Speaker 1: options because you know people, I know, people listen to us, 513 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 1: and they looked to us for guidance and whatnot. I 514 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: just don't know. I don't think. I don't think anybody. 515 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: Everybody talk on phone on more. We're gonna do what 516 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: we're gonna do. I don't know what you're gonna do, 517 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: because you cannot run and win the House of January 518 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: sixth alone. Now I know what they're gonna try to do. 519 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 1: They're gonna try to have these hearings on during prime time. 520 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: And that's fine. I mean I get all that that 521 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 1: that don't affect some people, but voting rights to organizations 522 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: that I know people out here in the grassroots everyday. 523 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: People want to know what did my vote in twenty 524 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: twenty do for me? Besides keep the insurrections out because 525 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: they ain't stopped. And the other mistake we made was 526 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: we didn't take these state and local elections seriously enough. 527 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: And that's on everybody, y'all. We can't wait for the 528 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 1: Democratic part leadership to show us how to do this. 529 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 1: If we had been more interested in state elections, we 530 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: would have elected people in these state legislatures that would 531 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: have stopped that Jerrymander. This is going on. But we 532 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: didn't know that. We weren't ed kid about ith were mobilized, 533 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: that we were just we were just focused on the 534 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:10,959 Speaker 1: national YEP, the federal piece. So we're and I really 535 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: am fearful. I don't see you at this hour a 536 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: path for Democrats to hold the House, to hold the Senate. 537 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 1: And I see Trump being I see Trump possibly even 538 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 1: being reelected. Something is wrong, something's wrong with the messaging. 539 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: Democrats haven't figured out how to stop the Beltway media 540 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 1: from attacking them more than the right wingers. You gotta 541 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: deal you gotta solve that all these articles since Biden. 542 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: Biden has had more negative articles in his first year 543 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: than Trump had. Do people know that no vice president 544 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 1: has head as many negative articles written about them in 545 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: their first year in the way Kamala Harris, as they interview, 546 00:33:55,760 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 1: let's see what the rejected Trump voter thinks. Do you 547 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: remember anybody? Were you too young? I remember nobody interviewing 548 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 1: the rejected Carter voter, or the rejected Minddale voter, or 549 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 1: the rejected Ducacus voter. Nope, or the rejected Carry voter, 550 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: or the rejected Gore voter, or the rejected Hillary Clinton 551 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 1: vote that wasn't we have to glove into this this um, 552 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: this species of people. But the Trump voter, what are 553 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,319 Speaker 1: they thinking? What are they doing? What? I mean, so 554 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,760 Speaker 1: that's what the bet Way meat is doing. Why because 555 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 1: they make their money now off of clicks and if 556 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: when you and when you are fascinated, when when you 557 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 1: get I'm sorry, when you get when you can attract 558 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:47,240 Speaker 1: the fanatics, which the right wing Republicans and Fox watchers 559 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 1: and Trump voters are, so we'd be rich today. I mean, 560 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 1: you mean you just became Maybe that's what we Maybe 561 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 1: we just become black Conservatives would be big as everything. 562 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: We would we would get a millions of downloads because 563 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:05,400 Speaker 1: that's what fanaticism is, and that would attract that. But 564 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 1: you know, I don't even think I could pretend. I 565 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: don't think I could sell it. After all I've done 566 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: in my life, I thought I could sell it. I 567 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 1: had a friend in college. I forget her. Would happen 568 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: to her? Crystal, Right, Crystal was GOP black girl, real 569 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,839 Speaker 1: popular when right before Bauman came in. But she wasn't 570 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: that way. We went college, right, so it was way 571 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:29,879 Speaker 1: when did you beget this way? And then some other 572 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 1: people exposed to say she wasn't a real conservative, she 573 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 1: was just doing it And you never heard from Crystal. 574 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: You never heard from Crystal again. So I know she 575 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:41,839 Speaker 1: couldn't sell it. I could, and not that I would. 576 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 1: I'm just joking, y'all wouldn't want to do anything that crazy. 577 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 1: But but that is what is driving the Beltway media recycle. 578 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: The conversations and those voters are more important, not the 579 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 1: fact that there is ongoing violence as a result. In 580 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: January sixth in the streets in the Senate, it's going 581 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 1: to get worse. Um, what six HBCUs got bombom threats 582 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: to the other day. That's random and see and I 583 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 1: didn't hear that. Of course I wasn't going to hear that, 584 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,479 Speaker 1: not on main not on not on the main cable 585 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: news that I'm watching. Six HBCUs had to evacuate because 586 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 1: the bomb threats the other day. Y'all remember the black 587 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: church burnings, And they tried to tell us that wasn't 588 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 1: or that was just coincidence, that wasn't coordinated. And then 589 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: when they fb AD investigated that, you know, this is, oh, 590 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 1: this was not a coordinated conspiracy to bomb black church 591 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 1: set for out the black churches. And we said what 592 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: I seemed worse because if it's a conspiracy, we can 593 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: target the people in church, like Jane were six, we 594 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: can target the conspirators. But when you start burning churches 595 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: and threatening bombs at HBCUs and it's not coordinated, that 596 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 1: means it's just naturally organic for white folks to do 597 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: that as individually. Just wake up, I'm white today. Let 598 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 1: me go threaten somebody. Let me bring violence to a 599 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,439 Speaker 1: black neighborhood or a black school HBCU, or a black church, 600 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: and it'll just be me. I'm the lone wolf. Well, 601 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: you got six lone wolves. That's not comforting. Six long 602 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 1: wolves in six different states threatening black schools. What is 603 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 1: that about? And and what radicalized them to do that? 604 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 1: That's not being covered. What's the Trump voter doing? The 605 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: Trump voter that you're covering, that you're you're lionizing and 606 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 1: hagiographing and all of that is a part of the 607 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 1: same group that is a not only threat to democracy, 608 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 1: but a threat to our people. So this is some 609 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: scary stuff. And make it gore mate or make it 610 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 1: the goal you can do soccer it. We might need 611 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 1: to figure some that out because I don't. I'm telling y'all. 612 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 1: If you if Dick Cheney came back, if Liz Channey's 613 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 1: daddy waterboarded me and tried to get me to say 614 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: what the Democrats are doing and what they should be 615 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 1: doing and what they can do, I'll just be drowned 616 00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 1: because I don't now. Uh, here's a nuclear option, and 617 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 1: then I'll shut up. Joe managine is to say it, 618 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: HM the Democratic Party and his partners and allies, all 619 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 1: those in their democratics. So ain't the ones that we're 620 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: in the eighties and the nineties and maybe even just 621 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 1: two the allans folk out some money. Now you got 622 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: Hollywood money. Democrats have access to montee called Joe Manchin. 623 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,320 Speaker 1: Would LBJ do he calls him what you said this before? 624 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: Ask him what his number is? What's your number? What's 625 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: your what do you Because at this point our democracy 626 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,239 Speaker 1: is for sale regardless, So let us all not play 627 00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 1: coy and be like, so you're a hoe and we 628 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 1: know that, right, So what what's your price?

Um, 630 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,360 Speaker 1: it is pretty much where we are, will Mark, I 631 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: will say this, Um, I refuse to give up as 632 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 1: of yet, so I will. But I think out of 633 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:00,839 Speaker 1: all the ideas, make it gourmet maybe be the best one. 634 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 1: So I will. I will hold that.

But right now I 640 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: will admit the same thing that you just admitted. I 641 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 1: don't know, um, but I know that we need to 642 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: do something. So folks, once again, it was one of 643 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 1: the insurrection. I don't want to say this. Yes, people, 644 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:37,000 Speaker 1: some of these insurrectionists who and I'm talking about the 645 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: ones that she's on January six, just those who against everything, 646 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 1: who are COVID positive and getting on airplanes and traveling 647 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: and just don't care. You go get tested, you come 648 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 1: back positive, and then you still function. Now we're no masks. 649 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: That's from insurrection. You because you're hurting your neighbor. This 650 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 1: omicron is real. People are dying again. I had a 651 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 1: good friend passed away who was double vaxxed and boosted. 652 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: And I'm not getting into the effectiveness of the vaccines. 653 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,280 Speaker 1: We know that. You know, as I said, the vaccine 654 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: is going preventing all.
