Sometimes when I chuckle like 12 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: that reminds me of my oldest brother to pass the 13 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 1: where he used to laugh like that. It's kind of 14 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: funny how jeans get passed down through the line. I 15 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 1: don't know why I told y'all that, just sont to 16 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: share with you. That's all. As always, always kind of 17 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: ask God to help me, you know, um, and and 18 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: and and I had I had gotten off track a 19 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: little bit because one of the principles of success I 20 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: want to share with you all today is a law 21 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: of attraction. And that is a very very serious principle. 22 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 1: It cannot be ignored the law of attraction. And I'm 23 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 1: not going to be able to explain it to you 24 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: as well as the books secrets can, or as well 25 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: as some people. I can only articulate it to you 26 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: the way that I see it. And the law of 27 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: attraction is very, very real. The law of attraction is 28 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 1: a principle of success. It is something that everyone has 29 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: to adhere to. Now, whether you know the law of 30 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: attraction or not, it does not make it not exist 31 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:31,239 Speaker 1: for you. This is the case where ignorance is not 32 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: the excuse. The fact that no one told it to you. 33 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: There is no pass for this one. The fact that 34 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: you never heard it before it does not allow you 35 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: to do it any other way. So let me see 36 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: if I can put it to you best I can. 37 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: The law of attraction, the law of attraction, to put 38 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: it real simple, is the thing that you focus on, 39 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: the thing that you talk about, the thing that you 40 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: think of, is the thing that you draw to you. 41 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: It's what you attract to you. That's basically the law 42 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: of attraction. The thing that you talk about, the thing 43 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: that you think about, the thing that you focus on, 44 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: whatever it is that is what you attract. The law 45 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: of attraction does not differentiate from positive and negative. It 46 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: only does what it does. What I am saying is 47 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: this in the law of attraction, no matter what you 48 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: think of, no matter what occupies your time, no matter 49 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: what you say, or no matter what the focus is, 50 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: positive or negative, the law of attraction knows neither one. 51 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: It just attracts it. So let's use some examples here, 52 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: and just your best example always uses me that way. 53 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: I ain't got to figure out nothing. I can just 54 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 1: tell you my side of it. I was in a 55 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: lot of debt one time in my life, as before 56 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: any of you knew me, so you can understand. In 57 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 1: case you're not thinking, I don't. I don't want you 58 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: to think that this conversation is about your income level, 59 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: cause it's not. It doesn't matter what the income level 60 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: you are. The law of attraction works in all aspects money, family, relationships, job, career, love. 61 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: It just works that way. Okay, here's the deal. I 62 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: kept saying, Man, this debt is killing me. I got 63 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: to get out. That's what I thought was a good goal, 64 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: to get out of debt. But what I kept saying was, 65 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 1: you know, I kept talking about debt, and you know 66 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: what it kept doing. It kept attracting debt to me. 67 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: So guess what, so I could get out that's all? 68 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 1: Is that crazy? That is an amazing law to understand. 69 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 1: What turned it around for me was I started claiming 70 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: a life of abundance. God, I am seeking a life 71 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: of abundance. I want to have more than enough. I 72 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: want to be able to help other people. I just 73 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: want to have a law of attraction so that I 74 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: be able to provide my family the lifestyle that I 75 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: want to provide them. I want heavily, father, to be 76 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: able to be an example of your goodness and your 77 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 1: grace in my life. That is what I started saying. 78 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: And guess what, that's what I started attractive. I'm going 79 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: to have a great relationship with my children. I'm going 80 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: to be the father that I always wanted to be. 81 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: I'm going to be a good father. I'm going to 82 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: be a good husband. Now. I am going to do 83 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: the right things. I am going to be the type 84 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: of example that my sons can look no further and go. 85 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: I can be like my dad. I want to be 86 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: able to be a place, a beacon of light and 87 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: hope for my daughters to come to. That's what I 88 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: started saying. That's what I started attracting to my life. 89 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: The law of attraction does not care if you want 90 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: it to be positive or negative. The law of attraction 91 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: just attracts whatever it is. You focus on, what you 92 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: think about, the words that come out your mouth. You 93 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: cannot overlook this principle of success and expect to make 94 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: it because of the fact that you've never heard of 95 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: the law of attraction, because of the fact that you 96 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: don't know how it really operates. It does not make 97 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: it not exist in your day. You can start today 98 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: attracting the right things to your life by changing what 99 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: you say, what you think, what you focus on, change 100 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: the focus, change the thought, change the words that come 101 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: out your mouth, and guess what you change what you 102 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: attract to yourself. You have got to ask yourself, why 103 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: is it? Man? Man, let me tell you something. Somebody 104 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: said the Bishop Jake's one time. They said, man, everything 105 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,959 Speaker 1: you touch turns to gold. He said, no, I just 106 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: don't touch everything. Man, This it's crazy. Come on, man, 107 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 1: he has a focus. He has a focus. See, he 108 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: ain't just everywhere. Bring me any idea, Let me try that. No, no, no, man, 109 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,599 Speaker 1: he has a focus. He has a law of attraction 110 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 1: that's working, where he's attracting things to his life that 111 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: that's positive that he can't ask not to say, Bishop James, 112 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: don't have problems because we talk often and man, he 113 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 1: have them. Oh, please understand. And he's not trying to 114 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: attract the problems. But what he will attract is the 115 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,599 Speaker 1: proper solution for the problem. And ain't that all you need? Sometimes? 116 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: God did not say that it would be easy. He 117 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: just said he would be with you. And if God 118 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: is with you, who can be against you? God will 119 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,599 Speaker 1: make your enemies your footstool. God is powerful man, His 120 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: word is true. He do what he say he gonna do. Now, 121 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: all we got to do is do some of what 122 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 1: we say. We ain't gonna do everything, just do some 123 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: of what we say. Okay, here's a deal.

Yeah, 150 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: you know, I just don't have a word for him. 151 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: But I was thinking though, because I don't claim to 152 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,319 Speaker 1: know what God thinks, you know, and who am I 153 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: to even figure what his ways is? But I was 154 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: thinking about the tragedy of Kobe Bryant and his daughter 155 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: and all the other people on there. Yeah, just when 156 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,599 Speaker 1: your time is up and you're a person of that 157 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 1: magnitude his passing, I've gotten more phone calls, more texts. 158 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 1: This is the most condolences, and hey, man, I just 159 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 1: want call and tell y'all love you.

Some of the boys, 219 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: you know, they were huge fans. And it reminded me 220 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: of what you were saying, Steve yesterday. This is their Jordan. 221 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: You know, these little kids they loved Kobe Bryant. And 222 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: Tasha said a lot of the boys at school were 223 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: crying and they were in the lunch room at lunchtime 224 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: chatting Kobe Kobe, and they were playing basketball. Tasha was like, 225 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: I think I want to play basketball because the girl 226 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: didn't know how to play. Momas I took the ball 227 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: from I was dribbling. You know, they were really having 228 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: a good time and celebrating basketball, and it's just it 229 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: was refreshing to hear how his legacy affected these kids 230 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: and how they wanted to keep going and keep playing. 231 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: And remember, you know, Kobe and they, you know, they 232 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: were talking about gig and it was. It was a 233 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: lot yesterday, a lot of emotional stuff going on. I 234 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: think it's going to inspire a new generation of basketball players. 235 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: Really really gonna some kids out there that really want 236 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 1: to play this game. Yeah, that'll be good for his legacy. 237 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,639 Speaker 1: And and you know, not only was he you know, 238 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: has he inspired too many people to play basketball, but 239 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: he played at such a high level. I mean everything 240 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: he did was excellent. Yeah, he I mean, you know, 241 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 1: for me, for me, for me personally, the takeaway for 242 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: me simply was, you just don't know when this, this could, 243 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: this that we often take for granted can slip away 244 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: and be gone in the blink of an eye. I mean, 245 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,360 Speaker 1: that was to takeaway for me. I don't care old 246 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: people play basketball. Look, if you're not gifted to play basketball, 247 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 1: don't don't don't, don't don't do that. Don't don't don't. Yeah, don't, 248 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: that's not what you do. You're not fitting to beat Kobe. 249 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: You know. Now, is there another Kobe in the making somewhere? 250 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: Of course, sure of course it is. And for that 251 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 1: boy girl, I'm not talking to them, I'm talking to Restie. Y'all. 252 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: Don't here you go you know who you and you 253 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: just got a ball.

I used to make a 265 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: rule that, you know, never argue or get into any arguments, 266 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: like before you have to take a trip or something 267 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: like that, you know, or get in the car. Just 268 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: don't do it. Try to resolve it if you can. 269 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: Try to resolve it if you can, because you just 270 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: never know, you just you know, you never know. And 271 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: it makes it even more clear, you know now that 272 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: we've lost um Kobe.

I went out there in front, 484 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: you know a lot of people looking and stuff, you know, 485 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: hugged him, shook his head and asking how the family 486 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: is doing, hugged his wife. That was the last time 487 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: I ever spoke to the buzz. So I'm not sitting 488 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: up here trying to perpetrate like he was close friends, 489 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: because we weren't. But what I'm learning even more and 490 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: more is what I used to compliment him more about 491 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: he really pulls his life together. I'm learning more and 492 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: more of how great of a man he was community wise, 493 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: and especially as a father father. I didn't know how 494 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: involved he was in women's basketball. I just you know, 495 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: and I'm just learning a lot more about him, which 496 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: is really really cool. Yeah. And one other thing I 497 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: heard that you guys had in common, Steve, They said 498 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: Kobe liked to dress. You mentioned he had. They showed 499 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: pictures of him not in a basketball uniform, ball and 500 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: they said he liked to dress. He was into clothes, 501 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: He liked cigars, you know, things like that. He was 502 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 1: a champion for women's sports. You know. Yeah, you know, 503 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: just a great guy all around. Um. Well, we're gonna 504 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: move on now and time to get caught up the 505 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 1: state with miss Anne. Ladies and gentlemen, miss Anne trip 506 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: do you thank you? This is Awer with the news. Everybody, 507 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 1: Good morning. Well, authorities say they've removed three bodies from 508 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: the Calabasas, California's site where Kobe Bryant's helicopter went down 509 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: Sunday morning, but they're not saying which bodies, although they 510 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: have identified everybody now on board. Members of the National 511 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: Transportation Safety Board they're there. They say the craft was 512 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 1: not equipped with a black box, which they say was 513 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: not required, but there was. They say an iPad used 514 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: for the flight's itinerary, the weather conditions, and some other 515 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 1: things that they're going to be studying and trying to 516 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 1: put together. The NTSB also asking the public for photos 517 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: of the area of the crash to determine what the 518 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: conditions were like. Meanwhile, the La County Sheriff's office has 519 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: set up a perimeter around the crash site with offices 520 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: on horseback and on all terrain vehicles to keep the 521 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: curious away because even they contaminate the scene and just 522 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 1: really messed stuff up. They'd say. The last transmission, by 523 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: the way, from Kobe's pilot was a statement that he 524 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: was climbing to avoid some thick cloud and apparently he 525 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: was told it he was too low at this point 526 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: and he should watch out. The National Transportation and Safety 527 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 1: Boards says their people are going to be there for 528 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,760 Speaker 1: about five days. They still are not completely sure what happened, 529 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: but they're still piecing it together. So I don't want 530 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,919 Speaker 1: to say they said this or they say that. Oh. Thus, 531 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: just so as you know, the NBA is inducted Kobe 532 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 1: posthumously into the NBA Hall of Fame. All the formalities 533 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,959 Speaker 1: have been waived. He is in, they say. And also 534 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: there's a petition out there to make Kobe Bryant shadow 535 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 1: the new symbol of the NBA, replacing Jerry West. I 536 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 1: don't know if that's going to fly very well, but 537 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 1: we'll see. You know. Let people have a lot of 538 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: respect for Jerry West as well. Now that it's a 539 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:39,720 Speaker 1: GOP's chance to defend President Trump against impeachment, they suddenly 540 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: find themselves on an increased pressure to call former National 541 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 1: Security Advisor John Bolton to testify, even though Majority Leader 542 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,240 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell's been firm about not considering any new information. 543 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: Things might be about to change, though Senate Minority Leader 544 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 1: Charles Schumer says the why of it is simple. According 545 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: to The New York Times, Ambassador Bolton wrote in his 546 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,880 Speaker 1: book that he was ordered by the President to continue 547 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 1: freezing assistance until Ukraine announced the political investigations the president 548 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 1: was seeking, including the investigation into the Bidens. Ambassador Bolton 549 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 1: essentially confirms the President committed the offenses charged in the 550 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,840 Speaker 1: first article of impeachment. We have a witness with first 551 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: hand evidence of the President's actions for which he is 552 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,720 Speaker 1: on trial. He is ready and willing to testify anyone 553 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: who says the House case lacks eyewitnesses and then votes 554 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,839 Speaker 1: to prevent eyewitnesses from testifying is talking out of both 555 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: sides of their mouth. At least two GOP senators reportedly 556 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,359 Speaker 1: feeled that revelations in Bolton's soon to be published book 557 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 1: or make his testimony crucial. At least two more Republicans, though, 558 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: are needed to overrule McConnell's witness shutouts, So we'll see 559 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 1: how that goes. Finally, today is National Daisy Day. Like 560 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 1: in the words of Dark Holiday, I guess you're a 561 00:35:54,440 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 1: daisy if you do to him, you know daisy.

Federal investigators on Monday began 600 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 1: working to unravel the mystery of why a helicopter carrying 601 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant, his thirteen year old daughter, and seven other people, 602 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 1: including teenage girls, coaches, and some members of their families, 603 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 1: crashed into the side of a hill in Calabasa's authority 604 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 1: said the investigation is now wide ranging, including looking at 605 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: the histories of the pilot, helicopter maintenance records, and the 606 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: foggy conditions, which pilots have said at a level of danger. 607 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,400 Speaker 1: Kobe began relying on helicopters to travel around Los Angeles 608 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,800 Speaker 1: so he would have more time with his four daughters, 609 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 1: he said in a December twenty eighteen interview, He said 610 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 1: the traffic was so bad in Los Angeles that he 611 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,800 Speaker 1: missed one of his daughter's school plays. Kobe also wanted 612 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 1: to figure out a way where he could still train 613 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: and stay in shape, but still not compromise family time.

I never wanted to be the 831 00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 1: other woman. Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm a single mother and 832 00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:00,440 Speaker 1: I'm at a nice guy two years ago at a 833 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:04,080 Speaker 1: local bar. I wasn't interested at first because he is 834 00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:07,880 Speaker 1: significantly older than me and his overall look is completely 835 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:11,320 Speaker 1: different than what I typically like in a man. I 836 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,040 Speaker 1: didn't pay him much attention and I didn't give him 837 00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:16,880 Speaker 1: my phone number. As I was leaving the bar, I 838 00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:20,040 Speaker 1: told him how to find me on social media. Later 839 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:22,400 Speaker 1: that night, he reached out to me on Instagram and 840 00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:24,600 Speaker 1: said it was great meeting me and he wanted to 841 00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:27,960 Speaker 1: make sure I got home safely. He messaged me often 842 00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:31,439 Speaker 1: and I would respond. I started looking forward to hearing 843 00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:34,359 Speaker 1: from him daily, and we really got to know each 844 00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:38,239 Speaker 1: other that way. He was very transparent and he told 845 00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 1: me that he was in a long term relationship with 846 00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,719 Speaker 1: a great woman. His honesty made me like him even more, 847 00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:47,920 Speaker 1: and I started opening up to him and we exchanged 848 00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:51,160 Speaker 1: phone numbers. I agreed to meet with him just to talk, 849 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:53,960 Speaker 1: and it was good to actually see him in person 850 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:57,960 Speaker 1: after months of messages on Instagram. It was such a 851 00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:00,799 Speaker 1: great meeting that I really started fall for this guy. 852 00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,720 Speaker 1: We started meeting up more frequently in public and in private, 853 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 1: and we eventually had sex. Nothing is changed about him 854 00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 1: and his relationship status, and he tells me that he 855 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:15,440 Speaker 1: wants to be with me. To make matters worse, his 856 00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:18,520 Speaker 1: girlfriend is my sorority sister and we were at an 857 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:21,960 Speaker 1: event together recently. I have never met her, but it's 858 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:25,560 Speaker 1: really weird. If he leaves her for me, which is 859 00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:28,200 Speaker 1: what he tells me he plans to do, this could 860 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:31,359 Speaker 1: get messy. I like this guy a lot, but he's 861 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,160 Speaker 1: a cheater and I don't know if I would ever 862 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,400 Speaker 1: be able to trust him. Stephen Shirley, what should I 863 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:40,200 Speaker 1: do in this situation? Do I continue to talk to 864 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:44,640 Speaker 1: him and see what happens or run for the hills? Okay, 865 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:47,560 Speaker 1: this is one of those letters where you already know 866 00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:50,680 Speaker 1: the answer before you even write in. You know what 867 00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:53,640 Speaker 1: to do, You know what's going on. You didn't give 868 00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:56,279 Speaker 1: us any ages or how old you are. You said 869 00:55:56,640 --> 00:56:01,319 Speaker 1: just that he's significantly older than you and you liked 870 00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:03,879 Speaker 1: him because he was honest with you about his long 871 00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:08,359 Speaker 1: term relationship with a woman. So this can't be your 872 00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 1: man when you really think about it. I think the 873 00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:15,160 Speaker 1: turn on for you it is just the fact that 874 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:19,120 Speaker 1: he's unavailable and that he says he wants you, not her. 875 00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:24,200 Speaker 1: You didn't even like him at first. He's an older 876 00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:27,800 Speaker 1: man who knows what to do to get you, and 877 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:31,400 Speaker 1: he has you right where he wants you. Okay, he 878 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:33,600 Speaker 1: can go home to his other woman that he's been 879 00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:36,400 Speaker 1: in a relationship with a very long time, and then 880 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:40,239 Speaker 1: he has you on the side. He was honest about 881 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 1: telling you about his other woman, but lying through his 882 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 1: teeth about leaving her for you. All men say that 883 00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:50,600 Speaker 1: it's a lot easier to leave a girlfriend than a wife. 884 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 1: So why hasn't he left her yet? If he wants 885 00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:56,080 Speaker 1: to be with you as he said so, I tell you, 886 00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:58,600 Speaker 1: don't don't believe the hype. I mean, if you don't 887 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:01,279 Speaker 1: want to be the other woman, you gotta stop being 888 00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 1: the other woman, as simple as that. I mean, your feelings, 889 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:07,200 Speaker 1: you know, may be involved, but if you don't want 890 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 1: to be that, you can stop. I say you do this, 891 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:15,200 Speaker 1: give him an ultimatum, say her or me, and see 892 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 1: what he does. He's gonna stay right over there with her, 893 00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:20,880 Speaker 1: and you're gonna be the side piece like you already are. 894 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 1: He's not gonna choose you, Steve. I never wanted to 895 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:37,280 Speaker 1: be the other woman, but you is. Let us begin. 896 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:46,520 Speaker 1: I never wanted to be the other woman, but you is. 897 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,400 Speaker 1: I'm a single mother.

I wasn't interested at first because he's significantly 934 01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 1: older than me and his overall look is completely different 935 01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:28,880 Speaker 1: from what I typically like in a man.

Do you know what? One of my 990 01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:29,240 Speaker 1: answers is because there are so many women willing to 991 01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:34,800 Speaker 1: cheat with us. If you know that this man is 992 01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 1: in a long term relationship and he's been transparent about it, 993 01:04:39,440 --> 01:04:42,640 Speaker 1: and you sleep with him, he's not the only cheater. 994 01:04:44,920 --> 01:04:50,360 Speaker 1: You're a cheater too.

I don't know if he 1000 01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 1: can trust you because you ain't got no problem sleeping 1001 01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:21,160 Speaker 1: with me, and that's already in relationships. So you're throwing 1002 01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:23,120 Speaker 1: this up in his face. He could throw that up 1003 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:27,240 Speaker 1: in your face.

Lebron James was seen sobbing and crying when 1160 01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:32,040 Speaker 1: he got off the Lakers team playing at lax On 1161 01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:37,400 Speaker 1: Sunday following a game in Brooklyn against the Nets, Several players, staffers, 1162 01:16:37,400 --> 01:16:40,719 Speaker 1: and other Lakers employees, many of whom have known Kobe 1163 01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:44,640 Speaker 1: four years, are simply inconsolable. Of course, we know that 1164 01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:47,320 Speaker 1: Kobe played for the Lakers for twenty years and built 1165 01:16:47,439 --> 01:16:51,479 Speaker 1: lasting relationships with so many people. These are the people 1166 01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:54,600 Speaker 1: that knew him, you know, it hit the people that 1167 01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:58,000 Speaker 1: didn't know him. I think that we're learning more and 1168 01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:02,200 Speaker 1: more that he not only had an epic career, but 1169 01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:05,960 Speaker 1: this brother had built an epic life. I think that's 1170 01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:09,280 Speaker 1: what a lot of people are coming away with him 1171 01:17:10,040 --> 01:17:14,880 Speaker 1: because like even the pictures, the big pictures that put 1172 01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:19,479 Speaker 1: up on the billboards, you know, the chromatic billboards outside 1173 01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:23,960 Speaker 1: of the lat Yeah, none of them are him in 1174 01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:28,240 Speaker 1: a basketball jersey. It's him in a suit, you know, 1175 01:17:28,840 --> 01:17:33,519 Speaker 1: which is saying just him the man, not the player. 1176 01:17:34,640 --> 01:17:38,639 Speaker 1: The man is missing. And I think that I'm even learning. 1177 01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:40,719 Speaker 1: Of course, you know, I knew him, but we weren't 1178 01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:42,920 Speaker 1: like I said, we weren't. We didn't have each other 1179 01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:46,840 Speaker 1: sale number, we didn't never called each other just every 1180 01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:49,320 Speaker 1: time we saw each other. We had we had a 1181 01:17:49,640 --> 01:17:54,479 Speaker 1: we had a mutually respectful conversation. I was complimentary of him. 1182 01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:57,120 Speaker 1: He was always complimented with me whenever we saw each other, 1183 01:17:57,600 --> 01:18:00,280 Speaker 1: and stay, I turned around. One time it was him, 1184 01:18:00,960 --> 01:18:03,479 Speaker 1: I said, Momber. He turned around his meat And like 1185 01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:05,760 Speaker 1: I said, last time I saw him was not at 1186 01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:08,960 Speaker 1: this past World Series, but the time before, and we 1187 01:18:09,200 --> 01:18:12,439 Speaker 1: both had seats like right on the front road, right 1188 01:18:12,520 --> 01:18:15,560 Speaker 1: behind the dug out of the Boston Red Sox. And 1189 01:18:15,720 --> 01:18:18,880 Speaker 1: last time I saw him and his wife, and you know, 1190 01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:21,960 Speaker 1: it was just cool. I was leaving. My wife, said Steve. 1191 01:18:22,040 --> 01:18:25,639 Speaker 1: That's kobd. He said, Steve. I went out there in front, 1192 01:18:25,800 --> 01:18:28,000 Speaker 1: you know a lot of people looking and stuff, you know, 1193 01:18:28,200 --> 01:18:30,360 Speaker 1: hugged him, shook his head and asking how the family 1194 01:18:30,439 --> 01:18:32,519 Speaker 1: is doing, hugged his wife. That was the last time 1195 01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:34,599 Speaker 1: I ever spoke to it. But so I'm not sitting 1196 01:18:34,680 --> 01:18:37,439 Speaker 1: up here trying to perpetrate like we was close friends, 1197 01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:41,840 Speaker 1: because we weren't. But what I'm learning even more and more, 1198 01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:44,280 Speaker 1: it's what I used to compliment him more about. He 1199 01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:48,960 Speaker 1: really pulls his life together. I'm learning more and more 1200 01:18:49,320 --> 01:18:55,360 Speaker 1: of how great of a man he was community wise 1201 01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:59,080 Speaker 1: and especially as a father.

Yeah, 1210 01:19:33,479 --> 01:19:38,720 Speaker 1: you know, Um, I know, I know everybody's focused on 1211 01:19:38,880 --> 01:19:42,920 Speaker 1: the tragedy, but I want to go a different way here. 1212 01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:48,960 Speaker 1: I want to remind everybody that all of us who 1213 01:19:49,040 --> 01:19:54,799 Speaker 1: are here still have so much to live for events 1214 01:19:55,479 --> 01:19:59,400 Speaker 1: as tragic as what happened to Kobe and his daughter 1215 01:19:59,520 --> 01:20:05,280 Speaker 1: and other the people on that helicopter. And like I 1216 01:20:05,400 --> 01:20:09,160 Speaker 1: said earlier, I am not one of those people who 1217 01:20:09,360 --> 01:20:12,519 Speaker 1: pretend to know what God's will is or why God 1218 01:20:13,160 --> 01:20:16,600 Speaker 1: does things sometimes the way he does, I don't know. 1219 01:20:16,720 --> 01:20:22,479 Speaker 1: I've questioned him before when I lost my mother. I've 1220 01:20:22,600 --> 01:20:26,160 Speaker 1: learned over years to not even question it because it's 1221 01:20:26,439 --> 01:20:30,600 Speaker 1: really unapproachable. He's beyond reproach and I don't claim to 1222 01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:33,280 Speaker 1: know what he does. But I do know this that 1223 01:20:33,439 --> 01:20:38,240 Speaker 1: when a person is taken away that was of the 1224 01:20:38,479 --> 01:20:43,240 Speaker 1: magnitude of this young brother, and it happened in such 1225 01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:47,479 Speaker 1: a tragic way. I think what it does is it 1226 01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:57,560 Speaker 1: makes everybody. It gets everybody's undivided attention, and however you 1227 01:20:57,760 --> 01:21:01,559 Speaker 1: choose to analyze it. For you, if it means calling 1228 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:05,840 Speaker 1: somebody that you love and making sure you touch base 1229 01:21:05,960 --> 01:21:09,920 Speaker 1: with them, or becoming more and more aware of how 1230 01:21:10,080 --> 01:21:13,479 Speaker 1: fleeting life can be, or if it's made you become 1231 01:21:13,640 --> 01:21:17,439 Speaker 1: more grateful and appreciative of where you are and who 1232 01:21:17,600 --> 01:21:21,559 Speaker 1: you are.

Have a dream so big 1236 01:21:41,280 --> 01:21:44,200 Speaker 1: that in order to attain it you absolutely have to 1237 01:21:44,320 --> 01:21:48,400 Speaker 1: have God's help. I want to become more light in 1238 01:21:48,560 --> 01:21:52,599 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. I want the light that God has shined 1239 01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:56,560 Speaker 1: in me and through me to come out in a 1240 01:21:56,680 --> 01:22:02,400 Speaker 1: way that it becomes attractive to more people. Like hey, man, 1241 01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:08,639 Speaker 1: if Steve can pull himself together, if Steve can manage 1242 01:22:08,720 --> 01:22:11,519 Speaker 1: to keep getting back up every time it seemed like 1243 01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:14,200 Speaker 1: they're knocking him down, then maybe I can do it. 1244 01:22:14,920 --> 01:22:18,240 Speaker 1: I just want to be a more of a beacon 1245 01:22:18,320 --> 01:22:22,920 Speaker 1: of light to people.
