And in no way is this uh 21 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: meant to minimize what happened. To take away from what 22 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: happened two not be a lack of empathy and concern 23 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: for those who were uh injured in any way, even 24 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: mentally traumatized in any way. However, because the media works 25 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: so fast and so quick, and because messages go out 26 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: so quickly, I have to skip forward to addressing what 27 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: you're about to see in the media, because what I 28 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: don't want to happen is you to be confused on 29 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: the things that you're about to see and here, and 30 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: so it doesn't allow me the time to be able to, uh, 31 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: you know, wait on things you know, wait, have a 32 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: grieving process, and then uh come back and redirect.

So I 94 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: bring to you an expertise of not the media, not 95 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: just talking having good commentary, but actually working with these 96 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: folks that you see who are out here with these 97 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: talking points.

Not a conspiracy theorist, telling you exactly 100 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: what they're gonna say. And you literally saw what happened 101 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: this morning. Shout out to those that did recognize on 102 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 1: Instagram that I literally told you with these people are 103 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: going to say UM. So I wanted to put it 104 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: officially on the record. There's nothing like having the record 105 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: to be able to go back to reiterate that again. 106 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: Moderate Democrats all over the United States are looking for 107 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: a tough on crime message and they always want to 108 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: be able to have something to refer to. No, it 109 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,559 Speaker 1: doesn't mean that they are happy that folks died today, 110 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: that folks were shot. Absolutely not. What I'm telling you 111 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,919 Speaker 1: about is it's actually a track a siminar training that 112 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: I've done before, a call capitalizing off the crisis. And 113 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: what that means is when a crisis happens, how can 114 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: you use that crisis, uh to be able to capitalize 115 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: in the sense of pushing your message. A lot of 116 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 1: you don't understand it because you're not in the communications 117 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: space as an expert. I'm not saying that to the mean. 118 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: I'm saying that so you can understand the game that 119 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: I'm giving you. And so when crisis is like this happened, 120 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: it behooves whoever it is that needs a message, that 121 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: needs a football to quarterback that message to be able 122 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 1: to throw it for the touchdown. Let me say it 123 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: one more time, when things like this happened, it allows 124 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: somebody who's running for office, who's in office, to be 125 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: able to have a play to run down the field. 126 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: There's two plays that are going on right now. The 127 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: Republicans are already saying, I'm looking at their Twitter feedes. 128 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: I'm looking at folks that I know that follow me 129 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: and I follow them, and they're saying, Oh, what is 130 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: the governor doing right now? You know why our Democrats 131 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: not doing anything right now? Why is it that every 132 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: time there's crime tough on crime issues, it's in liberal cities. 133 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: This is why we need Republicans back in office. I'm 134 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: not here to tell you what's right or wrong. I'm 135 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: just here to give you the game. Go down the 136 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: Twitter feeding you'll see. Then you'll see the Democrats on 137 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: the other end say. The moderate Democrats will say, this 138 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: is why we have to get tough on crime. This 139 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: is why I cannot go to my grocery store and 140 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: be concerned without being robbed. And again, I'm not disputing 141 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: that there's not a crime issue. I'm just simply giving 142 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: you the play courtesy of Testing Figual Communications Group, not 143 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: gonna argue with you about it. Is it right? Is 144 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: it wrong? I'm giving you the play. I'm giving you 145 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: some of you cornballs the game. Don't be a corn 146 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: ball your whole life. I'm allowing you to get off 147 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: the sidewalks for a minute and come to the streets. 148 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: So I can tell you what the play is. It's 149 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: up to you if you want to see it. So 150 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: the many Democrats will say that this is why we 151 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: need to get tough on crime, this is why we 152 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: must end mass shootings. Literally, the governor said it verbatim. 153 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: I said on my I g before she said that 154 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: this is what they're going to say, and she literally 155 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: said it. And then MSNBC came in and said what 156 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: I said an hour or so ago, that this is 157 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: gonna be uh. Biden was just talking about ghosts guns, 158 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: that this is a uh a way to clean up crime. 159 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: This is what they all promised on the campaign trail. 160 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 1: So the play is, Hey, remember we promised on the 161 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: campaign trail to clean up crime, and this is why 162 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: we need to clean up crime. So let's go ahead 163 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: and implement the crime Bill two point oh like they've 164 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: been pushing for the last year. If you've paid attention 165 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 1: to anything I've told you on my page, I want 166 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: you to stand. I'm not on social media to be social. 167 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be fast friends with you guys. 168 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: We're not gonna hook up, we're not gonna hang out. 169 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: I'm simply here to give you the game period. I'm 170 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: not on here to talk about entertainment every now and then. 171 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: I made talk about something going on some pop culture, 172 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,839 Speaker 1: but that's not what why I'm here every now and then. 173 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: I'm a post acute little picture of me being thinking, 174 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: I'm cute out. You know it is what it is 175 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: only gonna get worse from here, So I like to 176 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: do that every now and then. But notice that I'm 177 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: on social media only to give you this game. That is, 178 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: if that is all only to educate, only to inspire, 179 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: only to empower, only just to give it to you. 180 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: And like I always say, using lose it can't make 181 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: you choose it. It's up to you if you want 182 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: to take the game. The progressives, they're gonna come through 183 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: and say, this is why they need to defund the police. 184 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: It's not effective, it's not working. This is why that 185 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: moderates now are gonna come in and lock everybody up, 186 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: and they're gonna completely forget about the George Floyd Justice 187 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 1: and Policing Act. They're gonna completely forget about the cops 188 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: who are the criminals, and they're gonna make this mash shooting, 189 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: this one mass shooting the focal point for this year, 190 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: much like how they made the George Floyd matter the 191 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: focal point of two thousand and twenty and we haven't 192 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: heard ship since. Now you can come up with all 193 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: of the strategies and the conspiracies. I'll let you guys 194 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: do that in the comments. You do it better than 195 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: anybody else. I'm just here to give you the game, 196 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: and you take it with it. You take with take 197 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: it and do whatever you want to do with it. 198 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: Right now, moderates are running all over the country to 199 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 1: make a point that they are against all things progressive, 200 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 1: because they have to make the distinction between them and progressives, 201 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: even though they call them. They keep now they call 202 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 1: themselves progressives, which is hilarious, but they have to make 203 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: the distinction to make sure that they appease to Republican 204 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: voters who will never vote for them anyway. But that 205 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: is their play, and this will be an opportunity for 206 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: them to take that football and run with it. Another 207 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: thing I want you to notice, someone in my comments said, oh, 208 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: this looks like domestic terrorism to me. Well, guess what, Mama, 209 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: really doesn't matter what it looks like to you. Even 210 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: if it looks like that, and even if it's the truth. 211 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: It is all a matter of how the media wants 212 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: you to see it, how politicians want you to see it. 213 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: And can I tell you something about see it using 214 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,679 Speaker 1: you remember the movie? When they see us, when they 215 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: see us as black people see we don't get the 216 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 1: benefit of being a terrorist or mentally ill. What tells it? 217 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: What do you mean by the benefit? There's no benefit 218 00:11:55,120 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: of being a terrorist? Well, when it's defined as domestic terrorism, 219 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: that goes into a different category, that doesn't go into 220 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 1: the tough on Crown category. Can I say it again 221 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: in case y'all didn't get it. When you're categorized as 222 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: a terrorist, quote unquote, you don't get to go in 223 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: the tough on crime. You get to go in the 224 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: terrorists category, the non eleven category. Noticed at the press conference, 225 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: one of the officers said, Oh, this reminds me of 226 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: non eleven how we all came together. He didn't say 227 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: it reminds me of nine eleven terrorism. He said, this 228 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: is how New York has all come together. Whom I 229 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,839 Speaker 1: wish I had just somebody that knew how to look 230 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: at this game. Shout out to Twitter audio in the building, 231 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: thanks for checking in. Can somebody on Twitter. If you 232 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: are understanding the game that I'm laying down to, you 233 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: can I get a high five, a smiley face or something. 234 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: I just want to know. I got at least two 235 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 1: or three witnesses in the building that that are connecting 236 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: the dots to It reminds me of nine eleven and 237 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: how we all came together. Nothing about terrorism. Well you 238 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 1: know why it's not terrorism branding on Twitter audio? You 239 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: know why because right now it's an alleged black man 240 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 1: as the suspect. So that means it won't be mentally 241 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: ill because you know when white folks shoot up children 242 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: in schools, they get the opportunity to be mentally ill. 243 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:27,079 Speaker 1: And something was going on and what's going on? And 244 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 1: oh yeah, it's never about his home life. It's never 245 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: about Uh. Some troll that was looking for attention on 246 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: my I g said, well what about black women raising 247 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: these men? He was looking for my attention. I completely 248 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: ignored it. Sometimes I clapped back, and sometimes I just 249 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: when somebody's dead obvious won my attention. I kind of 250 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: just leave him there in the corner kicking and screaming. 251 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: But I'm glad he did it because it shows you 252 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: exactly what I'm talking about. See, when the white boy 253 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 1: goes and shoots up the school, nobody is questioning if 254 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: it was raised by a single white mother. There, Nobody 255 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: is asking, well, where is the white daddy, and why 256 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: is the family not doing what they should be doing, 257 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 1: and what about Chicago and we need this done that done. 258 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: It's simply, oh, he was disturbed and something was going on, 259 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: and perhaps he was bullied. It was everything but tough 260 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: on crime when it comes to white folks, who, by 261 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: the way, are the leaders and mass shootings. But notice 262 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: how they're saying that the suspect is a black male. Now, 263 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting to see what type of black 264 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: male this person is because so many people, particularly in 265 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: New York, identify as black. So I'm curious if this 266 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: will be an African American male and how that's going 267 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: to play out. Will keep following the story to see 268 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 1: how that plays out. But go look at the clip 269 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: that I put on what MSNBC on my Instagram. That way, 270 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: you don't have to believe me, don't take my word 271 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: for or just go look at the clip that I 272 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: put up when they said, oh, this happened in a 273 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 1: middle class area. You know, what middle class means. That's 274 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: where your progressives get it wrong. By the way, I 275 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: know you regressives think that you're the black folks whisper, 276 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: and you're not. You're terrible. And I can say that 277 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: from formerly working on the Bernie Sanders campaign. That middle 278 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: class talking point, you're usually talking about white folks. You 279 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: may not realize that's what they're doing, that that's exactly 280 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: what they're doing. Even though black folks are middle class 281 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: and middle class incomes and middle class education. When you're 282 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: using the buzzword middle class, you're talking about white folks. 283 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: So they already put that out there. Oh, this's happened 284 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: in the middle class. Notice look at the clip what 285 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: she said. You know everybody's you know, why here and 286 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: why now in the middle class area. This is not 287 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: in the the city. She even caught herself on the 288 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 1: words because rich she want to say, this wasn't around 289 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 1: the black folks. Later on, as I continue to watch 290 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: the reporting, they said, you know, this wasn't in Times Square, 291 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: you know where there's a lot of people around you. 292 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: They had to switch that up because it was starting 293 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: to almost sound like this wasn't where where where the 294 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: negroes be it. So she said, this is middle class 295 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: and a predominantly Latino and Asian community. Oh, Tesla, what 296 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: why are you bringing up race? They don't have nothing 297 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: to do with nothing. Well, I don't know as a 298 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: s MSNBC why they bring a race if it don't 299 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: have nothing to do with nothing. Why did they bring 300 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: up race? M hm gee, I wonder if now I'm 301 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: just guessing you guys can connect the dots. Remember at 302 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: the beginning of the year when Joe Biden told are 303 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: alleged black leaders to go to hell and said that 304 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: you need to you black folks need to align yourself 305 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: with the Latino community because they're the ones that have 306 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: the numbers. You remember, Now you gotta do is go 307 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: google it and look it up. You remember in the 308 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 1: tapes that the leaders snuck in and dropped it out 309 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 1: there behind Joe Biden's back. And as I told you before, 310 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,439 Speaker 1: they've been doing this. I guess they just got so 311 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: frustrated they wanted to cover themselves because they pushed so 312 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: hard to get Biden office. I guess they want to 313 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: cover themselves. So shout out to whoever the snitch was 314 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 1: that put what I've been saying and many others have 315 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: been saying for years. That's been going on behind the scenes. 316 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 1: So when Joe Biden told you to go to hell 317 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: black people, he said, line up with the Latino community. 318 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 1: We also know that the Asian American community was able 319 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: to get stop hate legislation. I believe it was just yesterday. 320 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 1: Are maybe a couple of days ago that the same 321 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: community s I n g H. Case you didn't make 322 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: out what I said, said that they too need to 323 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 1: be protected like the Asian American community, because they too 324 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:03,199 Speaker 1: are experiencing hate. And Uck Schumer, the leader for the 325 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: Democrat party in the House, said that yes, just like 326 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: they passed for Asian Americans, we also need to make 327 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 1: sure that this community is protected. So it's not me 328 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 1: that it's bringing up race. It's the leaders, it's the media, 329 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: it's all of the folks that have mikes and platforms 330 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: way bigger than mine. So this is an opportunity to 331 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 1: let the middle class Latinos know in America that you 332 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: must align yourself with the Democrat moderate side of the 333 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: party because we're going to make sure that you are protected. 334 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: I would say Asian American, but they do. In case 335 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 1: you don't know, voting very low numbers, but yet they 336 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: still had policy specifically for them. But the Latino community 337 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: and particularly and this is the game that you need 338 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: to understand. What I'm telling you is not disputed. This 339 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: is not a debate. I see some requests coming in, 340 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: some folks want to chime in. But what I'm telling 341 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: you these are facts. I'm not telling you to believe 342 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,719 Speaker 1: it or don't believe it. I'm telling you these are 343 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: facts of the Latino community is sought after for one 344 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 1: main reason. And I know a lot of you think 345 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 1: it is because of the population growth, and it's not. 346 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: It is because that community votes almost fifty fifty Republican 347 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: and Democrats. I'm gonna say it again, it doesn't matter 348 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: what population has the most people. It is how do 349 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: those people engage themselves in the political uh, in the 350 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: political strategy of it all. So let me give you 351 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: simple numbers of black people who actually vote vote Democrats. 352 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: Those of you to say, I'm that's why I don't 353 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: vote Democrats and I don't vote either one and I'm 354 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: not a part of the process. Hey, that's on you, homie. 355 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: I'm not here to tell you what to do, but 356 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 1: I do want you to know that you are a 357 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,679 Speaker 1: part of the process. You're deciding not to run for 358 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 1: office yourself or not to get behind the candidate that 359 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: you believe is your choice, but you are a part 360 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: of the process. You're a part of the process. Every 361 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: time you pay taxes on your job, you're a part 362 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 1: of the process. Every time you get a refund at 363 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: the end of the year, you're a part of the process. 364 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: Every time you pay taxes at the end of the year. 365 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 1: If you don't get a refund like I have to 366 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: pay this year, you're a part of the process. Every 367 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: time you go to the store, you pay retail tax, 368 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: you are a part of the process. I know it 369 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 1: sounds good on Twitter and social media to say that's 370 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 1: why I don't deal with either one. Hey, I ain't 371 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: got no problem with you. You'll want to organize and 372 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: say I'm out of the process. Cool, I'm just gonna 373 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: let you know you are in the process. So what 374 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: I try to do me myself and how I try 375 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: to push the line politics until something happens is put 376 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 1: our own people in the process. Because there's always gonna 377 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 1: be somebody in all is There's always gonna be somebody 378 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: in charge. So I'd rather be the person that I 379 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: support that's pushing the line and we hold accountable and 380 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: if they don't do what we say, we get them 381 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: out of office and we replace them. So I believe 382 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: in the don't chase them, replace them policy. But I 383 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,160 Speaker 1: don't have no problem with those of you to say 384 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: you're just not gonna vote it all. It's your business. 385 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to start a movement either way. Do 386 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: what's best for you and your family home me. I'm 387 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 1: just letting you know that you are a part of 388 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: the process. As long as you're living in this country, 389 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 1: decisions are being made on your behalf, and if you 390 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,439 Speaker 1: choose not to go to the meetings to speak up 391 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: and say what it is you want, that's on you. 392 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 1: I am independent, I'm not a Democrat, are Republican, meaning 393 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: I don't subscribe to either one of their ideologies. I'm 394 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: not a part of neither one of their games. G A, 395 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: n G games. Yes, I see games, but I'm a 396 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: part of the process in the sense that I'm not 397 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 1: going to be quiet. I'm not going to sit by. 398 00:21:53,600 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: I am not going to not engage, empower and inform. 399 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: So stop asking me, what do you think I need 400 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:05,959 Speaker 1: to do. I think you need to be a grown 401 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: ass man a woman and figure out what's best for 402 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 1: you and your family. And I do believe in local 403 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 1: and state politics above anything else, for sure on the 404 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: federal level. So with that said, you're going to see 405 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: all of these talking points trickled down. You're going to 406 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: see campaigns continue to run on this. You're going to 407 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 1: see UH progressives be challenged with moderates that say, this 408 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: is why we need to get up on crime. You're 409 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: going to see Republicans say this is why Democrats can't 410 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: get ship done. You're gonna see everything but the things 411 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,199 Speaker 1: that was promised, the black folks and the celebrities and 412 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 1: the influencers and the political punits with major platforms. Another 413 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 1: thing you're not going to see is them talking about 414 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: the George Blood Justice and Policing Act to deal with 415 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: the criminals who are in the police department that will 416 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: now be stopping and frisking unjustifiably in plain colds, unjustifiably 417 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: beating folks up, unjustifiably shooting people unjusifiable You you're not 418 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: gonna see them talk about that, but you're gonna see 419 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: them talk about this You're going to see them continue 420 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: to celebrate for kb J. You're gonna see them continue 421 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: to talk about their fashion and their clothes and everything, 422 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: but push the line. They do everything possible but push 423 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: the damn line. Any distraction, will do Will Smith, slap gate, 424 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 1: k b J, whatever, anything to avoid pushing the line. 425 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: So we'll continue to follow this will We'll see if 426 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 1: it will be a domestic terrorist. I'm just guessing that 427 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 1: it won't based on the history of how America's ran. 428 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: I'm guessing that, uh, it will be up on crime. 429 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: I'm guessing that well, really, I'm not guessing already said 430 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: tough on crime. They've already said all of that. But 431 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: if the suspect is what they say allegedly it is true, 432 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: which is a black male, it's gonna be interesting to 433 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: see how this narrative continues to push all the way 434 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: through November. They needed something to quarterback, and I know 435 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 1: you think, oh wow, it would be so cruel of 436 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: them if they really took this opportunity and capitalized on it. Well, 437 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 1: guess what. Politicians and the government is the biggest gangsters 438 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: in the game. Make sure you go listen to my pimps. 439 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: Politicians Pastors podcast, and I break it down to you there. 440 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 1: As soon as you start looking at them like gangsters, 441 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: it will start to make more sense. But a lot 442 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: of you squares and corn balls and never been around it. 443 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 1: No disrespect, you know, to anybody. It's not a lifestyle 444 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 1: that you should want to be around, to be quite honest. 445 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: But because you haven't, you haven't been exposed to it, 446 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 1: you can't see it. And there are some good elected officials. 447 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: I know many plenty friends who do the right thing 448 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: on the local level, who do the right thing and 449 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: never get the credit. I've interviewed many of them on 450 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: my podcast as well, so I thought I dropped the game. 451 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,719 Speaker 1: Just want to put it on the record.

Looking, 461 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: I have two requests. So let's have some fun and 462 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: let's let's bring this person on end Rich Black first 463 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,880 Speaker 1: seven one eight, Hello, Rich, Hey, how are you? I'm fine, honey, 464 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: how are you? Thanks for waiting? Uman the New York 465 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: and background, and I'm like twenty minutes a week from 466 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: Sunset part and I don't know. I'm not gonna say 467 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: too much on on your toward the space, but in 468 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 1: my opinion, it does look very very fishing the dumb. 469 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: One reason why is because, first of all, Sunset Park 470 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:20,199 Speaker 1: is predominantly Asian and Hispanic community. And I've been to 471 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 1: the Sunset Park. I've done business in Sunset Park. There's 472 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 1: not much black people that go over there because there's 473 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 1: nothing over his restaurants and there's uh residential buildings with 474 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:35,120 Speaker 1: whether Asians and his Spanish lived. The chances of a 475 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: black person going in that direction to do anything like that, 476 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: it's just very suspicious to me. That's number one. And 477 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: number two, they said fifteen people were shot, but nobody 478 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: has died. Nobody's fifth out of fifteen people. Nobody has 479 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: died yet. And I'm not wishing anybody died but I'm 480 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: just saying, like, out of fifteen people, and they said 481 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,400 Speaker 1: no critical, like nobody's in critical condition. Everybody is expected 482 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 1: to survive. That's funny to me, UM, And I don't know, 483 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: it's just it's just very very strange to me. And 484 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 1: it looks like they're trying to come up with and 485 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: you hate crime bill or something along those lines. But 486 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,479 Speaker 1: I'll just leave that tell less somebody else coming. All right, Well, 487 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: thank you so much. UM. You know again here, I'm 488 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 1: not uh one for this particularly and thank you again 489 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 1: UM for your your comments. I'm not particularly someone that 490 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: really gets into the conspiracy theorist thing. You know. I 491 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 1: have my own thoughts, but I'm very careful, um, you 492 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: know what I say, uh in these internet spaces because 493 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: people take things so literally.

I've known a fifteen 495 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: people to get shot and not die, so that he 496 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: is a possible you can get shot and not die. 497 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 1: But I do hear what you're saying, um, And again, 498 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,479 Speaker 1: when there's a government that's so questionable to people. I 499 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: even said this other day. I was on Fox Soul 500 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: and they were talking about you know, Brittany the w 501 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: NBA player. Uh. And they were saying, you know, they've 502 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: done all they could do. And I said, you know, 503 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 1: because the government is not trusted by black folks, it's 504 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: hard for us to know when you're telling the truth 505 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 1: and when you're not telling you so we do side 506 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 1: I a lot of things. So I don't I understand 507 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 1: you know where this brother's thoughts is coming from. Um, 508 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: you know, I I can get where the suspicion is 509 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: and I'll just leave it there because the time and 510 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: of it all is just is suspicious to anybody that 511 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: will say, you know, wow, this just doesn't make any sense. 512 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: I mean, there has been people going to good neighborhoods 513 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 1: and do stuff all the time, you know, So I 514 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 1: won't say that. I don't speak on absolutes and what 515 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: somebody will and will not do, particularly if they're mentally ill. 516 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 1: What I can tell you about is what I know, 517 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 1: this narrative won't be uh if it is a black person. 518 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 1: If it is a black person who is actually so 519 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,479 Speaker 1: you know, black American, um and not because you know 520 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: New York so interesting because New York has a high 521 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: population of those who identify as black. I think the 522 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: top four or five cities New York, Chicago, uh in Houston. 523 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: I can't remember, um what the other city was. I 524 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: was just reading it the other day. Um. But a 525 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 1: lot of people in New York identifies black, um that 526 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: may not necessarily be black American. So it's going to 527 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: be interesting if to see if this is actually a 528 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: black American or someone who was dark skin. Um. But regardless, 529 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: I do know that they've already said, oh, you know, 530 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: well this is not a domestic and act of terrorism, 531 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: but we don't. We haven't ruled anything out. Well if 532 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: you haven't ruled anything out, why are you saying it's 533 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 1: not an act of terrorism. So this is why we 534 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: just wanted to put this, you know, I just wanted 535 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: to kind of put the talking points out there, um 536 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: for you guys to pay attention to as it uh unfolds. 537 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: So I think that's it.

I am going to do 549 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: disclaimers or if you're if you're coming with conspiracies, you 550 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: have every right to have those conspiracies, but just be 551 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: prepared that I will reiterate again that what I'm doing 552 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: is not talking about conspiracies. I'm giving you the talking 553 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: points that you will hear um throughout the mid term election. 554 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: Young Fly Dope and Fresh. What's happy? Yeah, thank you 555 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: for taking my request. I just wanted to kind of 556 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 1: piggyback based off of what you said. Um, My quick 557 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 1: question was when appreciate you know commits you know this 558 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: like again in my opinion of terrorist attack, and they 559 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: make mention of like there was like detonation devices but 560 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: they didn't go off. Why isn't that automatically classified as 561 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: you know, an act of terrorism Because to me, in 562 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: my opinion, if a bomb or any type of like 563 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: explosive device is potentially used. Shouldn't that just already put 564 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 1: a classification on what the act is and ask the 565 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: question I had, Okay, and that's a great question. And 566 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm definitely not somebody that just makes 567 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: up answers, you know, as they go. So I'll be 568 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: more than happily to look into that to see, you know, 569 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: what is automatic and what's not automatic, because I'm not 570 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: familiar with that answer. But what I can tell you 571 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 1: from the political side of it, um, Because I'm not 572 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: a you know, terrorists, uh, scholar. I'm sure somebody in 573 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 1: the comments is probably thinks they are, so they'll probably 574 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: tell you, um, But I'm not a homeland security scholar. 575 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: But what I am. What I am a scholar is 576 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 1: in this politics space and in this political messaging. And 577 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: what I do know is that right now gun control 578 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,719 Speaker 1: is the topic, um, And it was just the topic 579 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: within the last twenty four hours, and it is a 580 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: topic that Democrats have been running on all year. And 581 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: so regardless of whatever it is, they're going to steal 582 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: twisted in some type of way on how this is 583 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 1: a gun control issue. So if there were fifty bombs, 584 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 1: if it was one gun away that just happened to 585 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: be just sitting there. They still gonna say, well, this 586 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 1: is why we gotta get guns off the street. And 587 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: they did it. They already did it in the press conference. Literally, 588 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: So UM, I do appreciate, uh, you know, your feedback, 589 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: uh and what you're saying. And I apologize I can't 590 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: answer the question, but I also want you guys to 591 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: know something. In communications, this is what we call what 592 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 1: about is them where I could easily just kind of 593 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: flip this conversation and go and start talking about you know, 594 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: what's the grenade and shouldn't be a terrorist and should 595 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 1: not be a terrorist, and should this and this and 596 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: that and all of that could be true. But what 597 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: I'm directing, what I want to redirect everybody's attention back to, 598 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 1: is watch how this will move through the mere terms, 599 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: because they've already said it's not an act of terror, 600 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: but we're keeping it all options open. Well, I've never 601 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 1: heard it's kind of like if I'm dating you and 602 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: I say, hey, I don't want to be your woman, 603 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 1: but I'll keep the option open to be a woman. 604 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 1: That don't even make it make that make sense either. 605 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep it open to be a woman or 606 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: I'm not. So I'm wanting people to see the political 607 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: football that's being thrown to be quarterbacks and people that 608 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: are running for office. They're gonna catch that ball, they're 609 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: gonna run in, they're gonna touch down. That's how they're 610 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: getting the votes out. So definitely appreciate UM, appreciate your 611 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: your question, and thank you. They gave me a good 612 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: way to kind of redirect it right back to UM. 613 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,719 Speaker 1: And it's a good question, by the way. I just 614 00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 1: want people to know watch this play and play means, 615 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: because I know some of y'all don't know what play means. 616 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 1: It's not saying that I'm taking this lightly, that I'm 617 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: playing like it's a game that it's not. I'm just 618 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: telling you this is the strategy. When I say play, 619 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,399 Speaker 1: I mean strategy. This is how the talking points will 620 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 1: be pushed all the way through because they need to 621 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: give you something. They have to have something to run on, 622 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: and they know that k b J. The confirmation that kn' 623 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: be J it's not gonna make you feel good enough 624 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 1: all the way to November. So this is an opportunity 625 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 1: what we call capitalize off the crisis. To be able 626 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: to switch the conversation into something else. We gotta get 627 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: it off of that. We gotta get it off Will Smith. 628 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: We gotta get to something. So this is the football, 629 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 1: and we're gonna see how long it lasts. They've been 630 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 1: said on MSNBC. Well, I wonder how long this is 631 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 1: gonna last. They're gonna make it last because those that 632 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: are running for office, they are going to use this 633 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 1: as they're talking points as they move forward. I'm gonna 634 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 1: take uh another caller? Is it black Buddai goes to prison? 635 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how do I pronounce it? You know, 636 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: I use my real name, so I don't mean knowing 637 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: your handles sometimes, but you are on Hello, Hello, Can 638 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 1: I can't hear you? Okay? Yeah, So I just wanted 639 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,839 Speaker 1: to ask you said that you, um, you know, work 640 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,320 Speaker 1: for the Bernie campaign and we had some issues with progressives. 641 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 1: Um and the way that the Democratic Party is trying 642 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 1: to essentially replace us with his Spanisor said, we have 643 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: to you know, get in with the Hispanics, right. Um. 644 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: When you look at the way that the Democratic primary 645 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: played out in you saw that a lot of Hispanics, 646 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: like a disproportionate number right, We're supporting Bernie Sanders and 647 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,759 Speaker 1: voting for like progressive policies because they thought that that 648 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:50,360 Speaker 1: would tangibly improve their lives, right. Um. Whereas when it 649 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: came to the vote, especially after James Clyburne and the 650 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: whole South Carolina thing, we saw black voters, you know, 651 00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: clamoring to vote um for Joe Biden, particularly order black 652 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 1: voters who are like basically the only people who vote 653 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 1: in these primaries. Um, what do you think and is 654 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: about the Democratic Party? Where like black people are okay 655 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 1: with voting just for like I guess, the establishment brand 656 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:21,240 Speaker 1: and not necessarily voting like Latinos who vote um because 657 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: they think they're going to get something in return. They're 658 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 1: gonna get doc right, they're going to get naturalized. They 659 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 1: like his immigration policy, and they like healthcare. Why is 660 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: it that we have such an attachment not only just 661 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 1: to the Democratic Party, I understand that, but to the 662 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 1: establishment of Democratic Party figures like Kamala Harris, Joe Biden. Yeah, 663 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: I got you, I got you. Um, great question, and 664 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 1: and this is um really great questions. So let me 665 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: just kind of go all the way back to what 666 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 1: I said in the beginning, because you said, I had 667 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 1: seen it. A couple of things that I just want 668 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: to bring some clarity. I didn't say the Democrats are 669 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: saying they're trying to black people are being replaced by Latinos. 670 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 1: I was referring to with Joe Biden literally said out 671 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 1: his mouth, not Tesla. Joe Biden said out his mouth 672 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: quote and unquote, black people need to align themselves with 673 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,400 Speaker 1: the Latino party. H. I mean with with the Lotino 674 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 1: community because basically they have the numbers on their side. 675 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,399 Speaker 1: So that wasn't what Tesla Figaro said. That was paraphrasing 676 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. The second thing you said, as you said, 677 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,399 Speaker 1: I had some issues with progressive uh, and I worked 678 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 1: for Bernie Sanders. I want to clear that. UM. I 679 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: worked for Bernie Sanders as the National Racial Justice Director 680 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: in two thousand and fifteen, before many of you even 681 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: knew who Bernie Sanders was, before he got really popular, 682 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 1: and I did not personally have issues. I am telling 683 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 1: you what progressives overall have had a problem with with 684 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,319 Speaker 1: speaking to black voters, and it's very similar to what 685 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: you just said. UM. They have and this isn't no 686 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 1: disrespect to you, but they have put these talking points 687 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,759 Speaker 1: out here to train you guys on saying you know, well, 688 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: it's always older black voters, and it's always why do 689 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 1: they align themselves with the uh, the establishment party and why? 690 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: And those talking points backfire and then you normally come 691 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: back and say, well, Bernie march with King and why 692 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 1: is it the black voters? Basically what you're saying is, 693 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: you know, why can't they just see it for what 694 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 1: it is and get it together? And I know you 695 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 1: mean that no disrespect, it's just the talking points that 696 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 1: they gave you. And so I addressed that here in 697 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,320 Speaker 1: a second. Um. Also you mentioned and I'm trying to 698 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: remember everything you said, UM about well, it seems like 699 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 1: Latino's basically paraphrasing you know, they'll vote for things that 700 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 1: they feel they're getting their benefits. So let me explain 701 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 1: again what I was saying about the Latino vote. It's 702 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: not because of population. It's not because it's more Latinos 703 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 1: than it is Black people are white people. Population has 704 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,240 Speaker 1: nothing to do with it. It is how many people 705 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:44,439 Speaker 1: in that population actually use their power and how they 706 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 1: use that power. So if if only ten people vote, 707 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 1: and none of those ten are going to vote for 708 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,880 Speaker 1: moderate Democrats then that is where they have their power. 709 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 1: If ten Latino Latino people vote and five vote for Democrats, 710 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 1: and let's say out of the five, three of them 711 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: vote progressive and too vote moderate, and the other five 712 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 1: vote for Conservatives, it allows them more leverage to court them. 713 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,439 Speaker 1: I hope that makes sense to you. So if I 714 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 1: am a woman and I'm dating, I'm keeping my options 715 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 1: open to date two or three different guys. It makes 716 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,799 Speaker 1: each guy step up their game. I hope that makes 717 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: makes sense to you. And so the Latino community does 718 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:27,839 Speaker 1: that very well. A perfect example is Bernie Sanders got 719 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 1: slaughtered in Florida. He didn't even spend a dollar even 720 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 1: trying to get vote folks out in Florida in two 721 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 1: thousand and sixteen because he knew that he was gonna 722 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 1: get slaughtered. Because the Hispanic community in Florida votes typically conservative, 723 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 1: the same Hispanic community votes for Bernie Sanders in California 724 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 1: liberals because the issues are different according to their different regions. 725 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,799 Speaker 1: Florida heavily populated with Cuban Americans that do not like 726 00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 1: anything to even sound like socialism, so they vote they 727 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 1: typically a line more with the Republican side. The conservative 728 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: side of the album, not necessarily the Republican side of 729 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,760 Speaker 1: the ALU conservative side of the ALUM. So while you're saying, 730 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,400 Speaker 1: you know, well, it seems like Latino's vote for what 731 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 1: they can get something out the deal. Yeah, they do, 732 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 1: but they also do it with the conservative side too. 733 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: So when you make it, I'm gonna mutual mic so 734 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: you can respond back when you make the statement about 735 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 1: you know, well, why is it that black people, you know, 736 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 1: what is it that they have with the establishment. This 737 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 1: is where y'all get it wrong every time. And it's 738 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: because and I don't know, you're saying we I don't 739 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:34,840 Speaker 1: know if you're black or whatever. Sounds like you're progressive, 740 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 1: but this is this is where y'all start pissing black 741 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: of photos, vote black voters off when y'all make those 742 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:42,280 Speaker 1: types of comments. And this is why the progressive movement 743 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: will continue to lose until they know how to talk 744 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 1: with black voters, not talk to black voters, not speak 745 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: uh in a disparaging, slight, shady kind of way. On 746 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: basically saying, oh, because this is what progressive consultants say. 747 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 1: I know these guys personally, A lot of you folks don't. Oh, 748 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 1: they're low information voters, they just don't get it. Maybe 749 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,839 Speaker 1: if they just got it, maybe they would understand. And 750 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 1: that's not it at all. In case you're unfamiliar with, 751 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,760 Speaker 1: it's not even just older black voters, but Black people 752 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 1: as a whole are typically moderate. Black people as a 753 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 1: whole are particularly moderate. I did a whole podcast on 754 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 1: this with Breath Brianna Joy Gray. You guys know her 755 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 1: as a progressive voice, and I said, when when progressives 756 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:32,359 Speaker 1: are not talking about business ownership, self employment, having your 757 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 1: own business, big difference from greed and Amazon and all 758 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 1: of that. The talking points that that progressives talk about 759 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 1: day in, day out, not all day every day, twenty 760 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 1: four hours a day, like fifteen dollars an hour. The 761 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 1: majority of folks who make fifteen dollars an hour are 762 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 1: white folks, not Black people. So the talking points on 763 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 1: progressive side have never been catered uh to actually speak 764 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:55,919 Speaker 1: to black voters. And I can say that as being 765 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 1: the former racial justice director for Bernie Sanders campaign and 766 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: to thousand sixteen, because Bernie Sanders doesn't want to deal 767 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,840 Speaker 1: with race, he only wants to deal with class. And 768 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 1: until progressive understand that race also has something to do 769 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: with class, until progressives understand that it is not about all. 770 00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 1: So as as long as we just eat the riching, 771 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 1: everybody make fifteen, it's all gonna be well. You're gonna 772 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 1: continue to get your ass beat because you cannot win 773 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,799 Speaker 1: the left side of the politics without a Democrat voter, 774 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:28,839 Speaker 1: period and of discussion. And they have failed in that 775 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 1: intentionally because Bernie Sanders, who leads to this movement, he 776 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 1: does not want to deal with race. He only wants 777 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 1: to deal with class. And Nina Turner has talked to 778 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 1: you guys about race killing Mike has talked to you 779 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 1: guys about race, but you tend to never want to 780 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,439 Speaker 1: hear that part. You only hear the part that they're 781 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 1: talking about that is that sounds good to you and 782 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: not you particularly because I don't know you. I'm just 783 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: saying progressives as a whole, they only want to pick 784 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 1: apart what what they say about class and completely ignore 785 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 1: the part about race, And so long at progressives are 786 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:04,839 Speaker 1: ignoring that and not wanting to deal with that, you'll 787 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 1: never win the black vote. And I will always continue 788 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:09,879 Speaker 1: to call progressives ass out for it. Look at Tim 789 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 1: Tim Black, who was a stunch progressive pundit still is 790 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 1: look at how many people started leaving Tim when he 791 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 1: started talking about reparations. As soon as race got into 792 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 1: the conversation, it became a problem for progressives. So that's 793 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:28,400 Speaker 1: the reason why, um, I say, uh, you're going to 794 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 1: keep losing the black vote and saying, oh yeah, it's 795 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:33,759 Speaker 1: just those old black voters. They just don't get it. No, 796 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 1: progressives don't get it. They still don't get it. They're 797 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 1: insisting on not getting it, and so they'll just continue 798 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:43,320 Speaker 1: to keep getting their ass bet um in those moderate states, 799 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:45,440 Speaker 1: particularly in the South. And I do not, let me 800 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 1: say again, I do not support just aligning myself with 801 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party or the Republican Party or establishment are 802 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 1: non establishment, I do not. I'm independent. But I'm telling 803 00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,319 Speaker 1: you where they fail on the communications side. So I'll 804 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 1: give the mic back to you. Are you still there? 805 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:06,439 Speaker 1: Because I don't know? Okay, okay z And I agree 806 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,439 Speaker 1: with a lot of what you're saying. I do see 807 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 1: that white progressives, especially the ones that are like Communists 808 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 1: or Marxists, UM, think that it all comes down to 809 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 1: a class analysis and that somehow race fits into a 810 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:21,800 Speaker 1: class analysis. UM. When it doesn't, and then they're often 811 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 1: like four universal programs, but against things like reparations because 812 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:29,720 Speaker 1: of that lack of understanding. I totally get that criticism. 813 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 1: I think in I'm not insulting you, but in tween 814 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:37,759 Speaker 1: Bernie definitely did not do any sort of a good 815 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,000 Speaker 1: job in like reaching out to Black Americans. Oh no, yeah, 816 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,520 Speaker 1: you're not insulting me. Yeah no, Just so we're clear, 817 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 1: I was. I was Gain's fault. Yeah right, and what 818 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:48,759 Speaker 1: I'm oh, you're not insulting me because I can't carry 819 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 1: it away from him. But again, it was only about 820 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 1: ten of us, ten or twelve of us that was 821 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: actually on the National African American Outreach team, and we 822 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: said it. I was the first one that said they 823 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:03,840 Speaker 1: called the Aggressive movement as a whole racist. My former 824 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:08,640 Speaker 1: director of African American Outreach, Marcus Farrell said it. Danny Glover, 825 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,560 Speaker 1: not the actor Danny Glover, Stafford said it. We've come 826 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 1: forward many times and have said this. We have said 827 00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:16,000 Speaker 1: it was the campaign, we have said it was those 828 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 1: in charge, and we said it to the Almighty St. Bernard. 829 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,360 Speaker 1: He got it wrong too, So no, you're not insulting me. 830 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:25,080 Speaker 1: I called it out on the carpet for what it 831 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 1: is and So the this is not when I when 832 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 1: I talk about progressives, people can't tell me like I 833 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:33,520 Speaker 1: was in the room, So I know literally in the room. 834 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:35,920 Speaker 1: When I talk about George well justusin police and when 835 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 1: I go on Joe Bidy's ass about that, I was 836 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,359 Speaker 1: in the room with the George roy family. So these 837 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,239 Speaker 1: are not comments that I'm just making it up as 838 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 1: I go. You are absolutely right. The campaign sucked it up, 839 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:47,439 Speaker 1: and I'm I called it out. I was the first 840 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 1: one to call it out, legally called it out, even 841 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:54,920 Speaker 1: South the movement and one by the way for their racism. 842 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 1: So it's very easy to try to put it into 843 00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,400 Speaker 1: a gen Z and a gen A and a B 844 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 1: and a C in the DF and all of that. No, no, no, 845 00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 1: it's old as Bernie Sanders who does not want to 846 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 1: deal with race, who brought all of the motivation and 847 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:13,319 Speaker 1: the energy and the progressive movement, and people followed him, 848 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 1: and then they gave the talking points in the atmosphere 849 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:18,759 Speaker 1: about oh no, it's just the older black voters. Oh no, 850 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 1: they just don't get it. Oh no, it's just Joe, 851 00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:29,320 Speaker 1: it's just uh Jim Cleburne. Oh no, they just don't No, no, no, wrong, wrong, Well, 852 00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:33,360 Speaker 1: I mean, um, if you look at the nature of 853 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 1: the race, Um, there was a point in time. I 854 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,879 Speaker 1: think it was like February after Nevada Bernie actually let 855 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,760 Speaker 1: with black footers with like thirties something, right, but sweetheart 856 00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:46,520 Speaker 1: let Yeah. But but can I tell you something? And 857 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 1: I appreciate your feedback. So you're speaking from a and 858 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:52,239 Speaker 1: I'm not saying this to be insulty. You're speaking from 859 00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:55,759 Speaker 1: what you're reading. I'm telling you what I know. I'm 860 00:46:55,800 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 1: telling you literally in in the room with Bernie Sanders 861 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 1: and his staff, literally, So the conversation is kind of unbound. 862 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 1: You know. I hear what you're saying. Oh no, but 863 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,760 Speaker 1: he lives. I don't know. I'm just trying to explain 864 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:13,000 Speaker 1: where I'm coming Understand, I unerstand where you're coming from. Yeah, 865 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 1: I don't think that this is a sort of static thing. 866 00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:17,560 Speaker 1: I think that, um, you can see with the A, 867 00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,799 Speaker 1: D O S and all these movements that there are 868 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 1: black voters fighting to make sure that we get something 869 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: in return, and we just don't go for you know, Joe. 870 00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 1: But I had a conversation with my great aunt and 871 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:31,200 Speaker 1: she told me that you have to vote for Bloomberg. 872 00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:34,720 Speaker 1: Who was on tape saying black males my age commit 873 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 1: murders or something and that's what we got stuff and 874 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 1: trist them. She said, you have to vote for him 875 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:42,839 Speaker 1: because he's the only person electable. And if you look 876 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:47,319 Speaker 1: at data liberals, right, our Democrats are more prone to 877 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 1: actually believe the media in comparison to Yeah, I understand, 878 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,239 Speaker 1: and what I'm what I'm saying is, sweetheart, you're talking 879 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 1: about data. And so my conversation in regards to progressives 880 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:58,359 Speaker 1: and Bernie Sanders is not going to be data. It's 881 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 1: not going to be the mad the met with the media. 882 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 1: It's not gonna be what your aunt said. I'm telling you. 883 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: I'm giving you game on what actually happened in the room. 884 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 1: You understand what I'm saying, so I try to make 885 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 1: sure I know. So, yeah, no, it's not a characterization. 886 00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 1: I was in the room. You understand what I'm saying. 887 00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 1: And sometimes social media, because everybody has opinions, we kind 888 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:19,600 Speaker 1: of confused, like in the room being a eyewitnessed to 889 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:22,560 Speaker 1: the crime versus somebody reading, oh, they said the crime 890 00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:24,680 Speaker 1: this or that. I'm telling it's not a characterization. I 891 00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 1: was on staff, I was in the room. I led 892 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 1: the racial justice entire conversation for Bernie Sanders. These people 893 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:33,640 Speaker 1: that you guys never met. And I'm not saying that 894 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:35,960 Speaker 1: to be, you know, demeaning you it anyway. I'm just 895 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 1: for those who are listening. I want to make sure 896 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: that we know that we're I'm not just having a 897 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 1: small talk, you know, conversation that we just have about data. 898 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you I was in the room. I 899 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,920 Speaker 1: was naa turn this former director of communications before she 900 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,239 Speaker 1: got on that campaign, killing mix a brother. MINO know 901 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,400 Speaker 1: him very well. I work with Sean King. I was 902 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 1: in the room. So it's not a characterization, it is 903 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,400 Speaker 1: a fact. Poles or poles, It all depends on who 904 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 1: you poll. I don't believe in those either. I'm telling 905 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 1: you this campaign, this movement has always failed with dealing 906 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,480 Speaker 1: with black people, period, and the messaging and it was 907 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 1: done on purpose, it was done with intent, and over 908 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:14,359 Speaker 1: a dozen black staffers in both two thousand sixteen and 909 00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:16,759 Speaker 1: two thousand and twenty called it out. So I'm not 910 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:18,640 Speaker 1: talking about your hon and what she read and what 911 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,040 Speaker 1: you read. I'm making the distinction for those who are listening, 912 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 1: because we do have to separate at least when I'm 913 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 1: talking to people, we got to separate opinion from fact. 914 00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,880 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you it's not a characterization. I was 915 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 1: in the room, literally in the room, And as far 916 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:32,880 Speaker 1: as Bloomberg is concerned, he was the only candidate that 917 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 1: talked about investing a hundred thousand for investing in a 918 00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 1: hundred thousand black businesses, not minorities, not people of color. 919 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:43,880 Speaker 1: Although no, I'm not a fan of his stopping fris 920 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 1: but he was the only one out of all of 921 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 1: the candidates they were actually talking about investing specifically in 922 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:51,799 Speaker 1: black folks. And Bernie Sanders was not. He wasn't thin, 923 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 1: He's not now, he never will. He never did for 924 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,840 Speaker 1: the last thirty years, which is why he was criticized 925 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 1: by black people in his own hometown. He never did 926 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:03,040 Speaker 1: when black people told him repeatedly on their campaign to 927 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 1: do it, he refused to do it. He wasn't gonna 928 00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:08,879 Speaker 1: do it. He threw the African American Outreach director under 929 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:11,280 Speaker 1: the bus with Black Lives Matter, go google it for yourself. 930 00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:14,280 Speaker 1: He refused to sit down and have conversations with black media. 931 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 1: This is facts, not a characterization. Facts. So yeah, I 932 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:22,080 Speaker 1: think I think my broader point is not about Bernie, 933 00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:26,799 Speaker 1: but younger Black people we don't identify as Democrats. Yeah, 934 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:28,320 Speaker 1: I know, but that's not the point I'm making. No, 935 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:30,799 Speaker 1: that's where we're talking over each other. I'm talking about 936 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,760 Speaker 1: Bernie because he's the one that brought the progressive movement 937 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,360 Speaker 1: to younger Black voters. He's the one that brought the 938 00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 1: energy behind it. Progressive Black people have always if we 939 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:43,040 Speaker 1: use the term progressive, like moving forward. But Bernie Sanders 940 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:45,200 Speaker 1: is the one that brought the energy behind the progressive movement. 941 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 1: How do I know because I was there with the 942 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: younger with the younger voters. So that's why I'm using 943 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders as an example, because he's the one that 944 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:55,880 Speaker 1: made it pop for young people, and he did it wrong, 945 00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,320 Speaker 1: and that's why there were seasoned seeds of white people 946 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:00,719 Speaker 1: and we had the beg black people to come because 947 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:03,439 Speaker 1: they were turned off, even by black people who were black. 948 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 1: They turned him off because they went with these same 949 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,200 Speaker 1: talking points that you and I are talking about right now, 950 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: characterizations and data and poling telling you what it is. 951 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:15,200 Speaker 1: I was the only black National staffer in Michigan when 952 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,319 Speaker 1: he won Michigan by hair You know who was you 953 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 1: know who's the one that actually uh introduced him to 954 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:24,080 Speaker 1: the black people in Flint. Me, Tesla Figaro. It's literally 955 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:27,440 Speaker 1: on the record. Her name was Daniel Green. I introduced 956 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:31,759 Speaker 1: them to the black people. Yeah well yeah, well guess what. 957 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:33,600 Speaker 1: Guess who was the only black person on the ground 958 00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:36,880 Speaker 1: on the national level. Me? Guess who helped it? Me, 959 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:38,800 Speaker 1: Tesla figure. It's only one Testlam Figure. You don't have 960 00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:41,359 Speaker 1: to be confused because it's not a weird name like 961 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:44,440 Speaker 1: you know, our common name, like Susan Smith. It's selling Figaro. 962 00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:46,600 Speaker 1: I introduced him to the picture where you see him 963 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 1: hugging the black woman in Flynn, and then he talked 964 00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:51,879 Speaker 1: about that black woman all throughout his ads. Right after that. 965 00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:54,799 Speaker 1: Her name is Daniel Green. I introduced her. I went 966 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:58,280 Speaker 1: to Flint, went to the hood, went to the barbershops, 967 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:00,080 Speaker 1: went to all the places that he would never go, 968 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:02,960 Speaker 1: and brought him the five black people that he met 969 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:06,360 Speaker 1: in Flint. And he talked about it on his commercials 970 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 1: and that's how he won Michigan. And guess what when 971 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:11,480 Speaker 1: he went back again two years later, I said, you 972 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 1: gotta go back, and you gotta go back and talk 973 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:15,120 Speaker 1: to these people that you didn't talk to since then 974 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:17,839 Speaker 1: that you came and promised, and I connected that media 975 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,759 Speaker 1: again with him and Senator Turner. And guess what. Guess 976 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 1: who hasn't talked to the people and Flint since Bernie 977 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:25,879 Speaker 1: Sam isn't everybody else that ran there too? So yeah, 978 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 1: good old Saint Bernard he and he ain't talked to 979 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,759 Speaker 1: him too, Daniel. Daniel just called me last week and 980 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:33,320 Speaker 1: guess what, she's actually an elected official right now. Seems 981 00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,279 Speaker 1: like somebody would have wanted to keep a relationship with her, 982 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 1: but they don't. And that goes who progressives, moderate, Hillary Clinton, 983 00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 1: all of them that ran down the Flint during that time, 984 00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 1: also was one of the lead consultants with Attorney Benjamin 985 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:49,359 Speaker 1: Crump with the Flint water crisis where they rewarded six 986 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:53,720 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars. So these are not I'm not giving 987 00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:56,880 Speaker 1: you talking points and data and I'm telling you what's real, baby. 988 00:52:57,239 --> 00:53:00,359 Speaker 1: So I appreciate, I appreciate you chiming in. I out 989 00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:06,839 Speaker 1: that gave you some you know, some that wasn't gonna 990 00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:12,400 Speaker 1: happen either. You're welcome money. Thank you, well, that was 991 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:15,279 Speaker 1: a great call. So you guys, Uh again, I don't 992 00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:17,239 Speaker 1: want to take away from what folks are saying. I 993 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,120 Speaker 1: guess I'll start taking calls more often so you can 994 00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:21,000 Speaker 1: hear me engage. And that was a great one where 995 00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 1: we were able to talk. And I try to make 996 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 1: the distinction, guys, between um information that you're hearing and 997 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:33,759 Speaker 1: what the media wants you to hear and what consultants 998 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:36,480 Speaker 1: want you to hear. Even if it's a progressive consultant 999 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:40,960 Speaker 1: or a Democrat consultant, moderate consultant, or a conservative consultant. 1000 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 1: I'm telling you a lot of what you hear are 1001 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:45,840 Speaker 1: talking points that they want you to hear, and people 1002 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:49,279 Speaker 1: run with it and they believe it. And so that's 1003 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 1: kind of the difference on what I'm trying to show 1004 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:54,280 Speaker 1: you on what I'm doing. These are These are not characterizations. 1005 00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 1: I was on the ground, baby, totally different. And I 1006 00:53:57,520 --> 00:53:59,440 Speaker 1: wasn't on the ground as a volunteer. I wasn't on 1007 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,840 Speaker 1: the ground as somebody working on the staff on the 1008 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 1: state level. I was on the ground as a national 1009 00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:13,319 Speaker 1: African American Outreach directors about ten of us. So my 1010 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:16,239 Speaker 1: perception is gonna be a very different. It's not even 1011 00:54:16,280 --> 00:54:18,760 Speaker 1: a fair conversation. It's like somebody that went to jail 1012 00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:20,920 Speaker 1: having a conversation when somebody's never been to jail and 1013 00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:24,000 Speaker 1: talks about well, you know, the data shows this about 1014 00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:26,839 Speaker 1: people in jail, and the data it's a different conversation. 1015 00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 1: So I thought that was great to have. UM, looks 1016 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:41,399 Speaker 1: like I got two more requests. I'll take one more 1017 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:44,400 Speaker 1: and then UM, I'll get out of here. Because this 1018 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,880 Speaker 1: wasn't really supposed to turn into a question and answer, 1019 00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 1: but I guess it is. As long as you guys 1020 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:54,480 Speaker 1: are listening, we'll keep going. Stepper, I'll bring you up. Hello. Yeah, 1021 00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 1: nothing much was happening. Yeah, I'm from New York too, 1022 00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:01,040 Speaker 1: so I've been uh around locally. I've been around for 1023 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:04,960 Speaker 1: a while, you know, trying to get some things done. Wound. UM. 1024 00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:08,279 Speaker 1: I find it ironic because Eric Adams when he's there's 1025 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 1: a young man Nam knew his Santos. Have you heard 1026 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:14,919 Speaker 1: of him? M hmm no. So basically this young man 1027 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,839 Speaker 1: was shot in the head with Win said he's still 1028 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:21,960 Speaker 1: alive though, UM. But it was unmarked police vehicles that 1029 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:24,920 Speaker 1: on Bram's his car because he um was going through 1030 00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: a light and they have brands his car and they 1031 00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:31,480 Speaker 1: end up shooting him because they said he was moving. UM. 1032 00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:34,239 Speaker 1: In the direction of another police vehicle, so they shot 1033 00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:37,600 Speaker 1: him in the head. Um and May Eric Adams came 1034 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:39,719 Speaker 1: out and the first thing he said, we have to 1035 00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 1: look at this as a terrorists This could have been 1036 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:46,040 Speaker 1: a terrorist attack. Yeah, well I don't know, but I 1037 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:51,680 Speaker 1: know that the the press conference that was just held 1038 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:54,279 Speaker 1: about an hour or so ago, they said, we're not 1039 00:55:54,320 --> 00:55:55,960 Speaker 1: looking at it that way, but we're keeping all the 1040 00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:59,880 Speaker 1: options open. So it's just gonna be interesting, um, you know, 1041 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 1: but it's not having all the details to see where 1042 00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:05,440 Speaker 1: it plays out. I mainly just wanted people to look at, 1043 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,200 Speaker 1: you know, the different plays and just you know, kind 1044 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,000 Speaker 1: of watch and see how how it goes. I don't 1045 00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:12,799 Speaker 1: want to speak, um you know about facts that I 1046 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:15,440 Speaker 1: don't know about, but I just know that I know politics, 1047 00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:17,399 Speaker 1: and I know how these talking points are about to play. 1048 00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 1: And it's not even about to They literally already did it. 1049 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,799 Speaker 1: They already said we gotta do something about this crime. 1050 00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:24,720 Speaker 1: I'm tired of the mass shootings. That's what the governor 1051 00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 1: came out and said. Before she has any details, they're 1052 00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:31,080 Speaker 1: already moving that political football, uh down the field. I'm 1053 00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:34,880 Speaker 1: agreeing with you. I'm agreeing with you because um, the police. 1054 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:38,719 Speaker 1: I shot out down unmocked um the man who was unarmed, 1055 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:40,360 Speaker 1: and then came out and said it was a terrorist 1056 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:42,200 Speaker 1: attack and he was he could have been trying to 1057 00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:46,319 Speaker 1: kill the police. They're already coming out to set the 1058 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:50,759 Speaker 1: the navirative. That's what the major is doing. He schote compagendamm. 1059 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 1: He tries to go out and like he doesn't even 1060 00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:55,759 Speaker 1: know the facts in the details of the kings, and 1061 00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 1: he will talk about the first thing he does in 1062 00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:00,400 Speaker 1: any type of police shooting, whether the cop was wrong. 1063 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:03,560 Speaker 1: Usually they're wrong and they're over react, but the first 1064 00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:06,080 Speaker 1: thing he does is go he goes to protect the 1065 00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 1: police and to make this about safe public safety. He starts, 1066 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:13,240 Speaker 1: I'm talking about either COVID talking points or he starts 1067 00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:17,240 Speaker 1: to give you the public safety talking points that we 1068 00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 1: need to increase support from the police precincts and to 1069 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:24,240 Speaker 1: the police. That took further to continue to fund the police. 1070 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:26,840 Speaker 1: And that's how that's what every time a crime or 1071 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 1: an incident or a devastating incidents it's happened the Democrats 1072 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:32,200 Speaker 1: of New York, they rushed to the scene of the crime, 1073 00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 1: and I'm talking about how I needed to uh support 1074 00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:38,320 Speaker 1: and think the police for what they have done, which 1075 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:41,600 Speaker 1: he's basically the crime has going up. The funding for 1076 00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:44,160 Speaker 1: the police has going up, and I think I think 1077 00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:46,640 Speaker 1: they're looking forward to go up even more with the 1078 00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 1: playing closed unit now established in New York and they came, 1079 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:53,480 Speaker 1: they made a remix of rebranded version of it. I 1080 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 1: think they're going to use this because they said they 1081 00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:58,760 Speaker 1: had more police officers or the trains before this event 1082 00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:01,960 Speaker 1: had happened. So, um, that's pretty odd and and and 1083 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 1: it's gonna get it could get scary if he could spooky. 1084 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going to be done politically, but 1085 00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 1: this is like a big cop agenda war that's going 1086 00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:12,960 Speaker 1: on with between the average person. I'm really scared that 1087 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 1: I think that our rights are going to be taken away. Um. 1088 00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:18,560 Speaker 1: It's bad enough that they're trying to remove the homeless 1089 00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:21,600 Speaker 1: without giving them them any secure housing. So now they're 1090 00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:24,440 Speaker 1: running around on the train to going crazy, which they 1091 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:26,600 Speaker 1: already had been, but that was even worse than they're 1092 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:29,240 Speaker 1: just showing the homeless encampments in New York. Um, so 1093 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:32,160 Speaker 1: that means those homeless or mentally help people are going 1094 00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:35,400 Speaker 1: to be actively order train taking their anger out every 1095 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:37,960 Speaker 1: time I'm going into train station or go on the train. 1096 00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:41,439 Speaker 1: I in council a mentally ill person. Every single time 1097 00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:44,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't and doesn't fail. And they're going to train 1098 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:48,680 Speaker 1: they start screaming. They're going to these outbursts, um, and 1099 00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:52,280 Speaker 1: they start attracking people because the homeless show to doesn't 1100 00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:54,080 Speaker 1: want to take him and they don't have any or 1101 00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,440 Speaker 1: more homeless encampmus because the mayor is trying to destroy 1102 00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 1: any place where here is homeless people. Um. And as 1103 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 1: well as he's cracking down on any petty cloud jumping turnstiles, 1104 00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:11,320 Speaker 1: jay walking, he's having a playing clothes offers of aggressively 1105 00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:16,920 Speaker 1: attack average everything person.

Note, Um, we all 1145 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:26,960 Speaker 1: know not to let Felicia borrow our vc'all right, why 1146 01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:30,800 Speaker 1: because she's a crackhead. Now when it comes to America, 1147 01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:35,760 Speaker 1: people like to use that word conspiracy theory, but theory 1148 01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:38,840 Speaker 1: is not the right word when we're dealing with somebody 1149 01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:42,920 Speaker 1: who has a votus apod die right like America has 1150 01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:47,479 Speaker 1: a list upon lists upon list upon list upon list 1151 01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:50,040 Speaker 1: of the things that we're talking about that they could 1152 01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:53,720 Speaker 1: be doing. So, UM, I look at it in that way. 1153 01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:58,760 Speaker 1: Everything this country does, our scument does, is crooked. And um, 1154 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:01,120 Speaker 1: what you're doing is what excuse me, what they're doing 1155 01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:04,240 Speaker 1: is what they say. Um. Never let a good uh 1156 01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:06,320 Speaker 1: get how that say? You know that the saying, don't 1157 01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:09,200 Speaker 1: never let a good crisis go to waste, and you 1158 01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:12,240 Speaker 1: know that's what they do. So that is part of 1159 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 1: the conspiracy theory. Oh yeah, but you know, just to 1160 01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 1: be clear when when I'm speaking on facts, straight shot, no, chaser, 1161 01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:20,080 Speaker 1: that's not conspiracy. Like you heard me talk to the 1162 01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:22,920 Speaker 1: other brother when he said, oh, I hear your characterization, 1163 01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:25,560 Speaker 1: I said, no, those are facts. So when I'm speaking facts, 1164 01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:27,760 Speaker 1: i'm facts, and no, I don't trust this government, even 1165 01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:29,440 Speaker 1: though I served in the military. I don't trust this 1166 01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:31,640 Speaker 1: government because I speak of every day using my real name, 1167 01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 1: Tesla and Figaro. I don't hide under no handle or nothing. 1168 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 1: What I meant when I said, I don't put out 1169 01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:40,160 Speaker 1: a lot of conspiracy theories, meaning I don't. I have 1170 01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 1: to be very responsible and what it is that I'm 1171 01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:43,880 Speaker 1: saying and I don't want to say, oh, well, what 1172 01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:47,720 Speaker 1: really happened was Joe came over here and he smoked Bob, 1173 01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:49,440 Speaker 1: and Bob really did it because of this, and this 1174 01:02:49,480 --> 01:02:51,600 Speaker 1: is really what happened, and you know this is how 1175 01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:53,880 Speaker 1: it happened to that. When I'm talking about the government 1176 01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:56,680 Speaker 1: and I'm talking about my position and not trusting this government, 1177 01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:59,720 Speaker 1: those are facts. And we have every reason to believe 1178 01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:02,440 Speaker 1: that because based on the history. When I said, I 1179 01:03:02,440 --> 01:03:05,600 Speaker 1: don't put out different theories, meaning what had happened was 1180 01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:08,600 Speaker 1: so using your analogy with the VCR, if you said 1181 01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:11,480 Speaker 1: Felicia came and stole the VCR, I don't go into 1182 01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:13,520 Speaker 1: a theory in my own, you know, coming up with 1183 01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:15,520 Speaker 1: my own theory on why she stole it, when she 1184 01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:18,120 Speaker 1: stole it, what else she stole whatever, you know, without 1185 01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:20,320 Speaker 1: the facts. And I have to do that, brother, because 1186 01:03:20,600 --> 01:03:22,520 Speaker 1: I have to make sure that my as you guys 1187 01:03:22,520 --> 01:03:24,760 Speaker 1: are telling your positions, which I have no problem with 1188 01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:26,480 Speaker 1: you're doing. And that's why I'm bringing people up to 1189 01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:28,400 Speaker 1: the MIC. I have to be clear and what I 1190 01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:32,000 Speaker 1: say versus what you say, because I don't need somebody 1191 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 1: confusing what I said based on what somebody else's theory. Is. 1192 01:03:35,640 --> 01:03:39,120 Speaker 1: When I say somebody's theory, I'm talking about you coming 1193 01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:41,680 Speaker 1: up with your own. This has what happened was you 1194 01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:44,120 Speaker 1: know what we're saying, but what it happened was, So 1195 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:47,400 Speaker 1: I'm trying to make that distinction between what I know 1196 01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:51,360 Speaker 1: the government will do so and that's what I wanted 1197 01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 1: to say. No, I totally agree, you know, and how 1198 01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:57,040 Speaker 1: you go around that. I was just I was more 1199 01:03:57,120 --> 01:04:01,800 Speaker 1: speaking to the listeners just as we of course, we 1200 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:04,920 Speaker 1: can't do what happened, love, because we don't know what happened. 1201 01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:07,080 Speaker 1: But what we do know is these motherfucker's is still 1202 01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:09,360 Speaker 1: of ship. That's the one now, that part we do know, right, 1203 01:04:11,240 --> 01:04:14,760 Speaker 1: listening to these situations taken all into a grain of salt. 1204 01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:18,240 Speaker 1: People like she says, you you see the play, because 1205 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:23,080 Speaker 1: the play is the same play every time. And I 1206 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,040 Speaker 1: just wanted to say one thing too about that stopping 1207 01:04:26,120 --> 01:04:29,240 Speaker 1: Fris That ship really pissed me off.
