1
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 1: Hurricane Melissa made landfall in New Hope, Jamaica, yesterday afternoon

2
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,960
Speaker 1: as a powerful Category five storm and causing widespread devastation.

3
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 1: Melissa pumbled through with one hundred and eighty five mile

4
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: per hour winds and torrential rain. Yeah yeah, yeah, one

5
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty five miles per hour.

6
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:22,599
Speaker 2: Yes.

7
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: Then weake into a category four as it continued its

8
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 1: path of destruction across Jamaica. According to AP News, multiple

9
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,879
Speaker 1: hospitals and emergency services are not accessible because of flooding

10
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: and power loss. On Monday, ahead of Hurricane Melissa, Jamaican

11
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: Prime Minister Andrew Hallness cautioned that a cleanup would be slow.

12
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 1: He said, quote, there is no infrastructure in the region

13
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 1: that can withstand a category five. The question is the

14
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: speed of recovery. That's a challenge. There are reportedly close

15
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: to twenty five thousand tourists stranded right now to make

16
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: a that we're unable to evacuate. And this morning, the

17
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: hurricane is expected to impact Cuba and then move on

18
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: toward the Bahamas by late this afternoon.

19
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 3: And of course our prayers.

20
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 1: Are with those impacted by this horrific storm.

21
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 4: Hurricane Melissa is our President's gonna help these people helping

22
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 4: everybody here.

23
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 5: Well, we have to help the Caribbean.

24
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 6: There's I mean, I don't see how you can't help

25
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:30,320
Speaker 6: the in the Caribbean. Yeah, and you know we say

26
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 6: how yeah, well you're right.

27
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 2: See yeah, let's chee.

28
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 7: I think we're gonna have to put some prayer on

29
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 7: this that we touch all the right hearts because you know,

30
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 7: we we have the means to help. Yes, but you

31
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 7: know the problem with this make America great again, it

32
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 7: has been to withdraw. If you knew the damage they've

33
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 7: caused in Africa with Africa Aid being taken away, I

34
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 7: mean really simple stuff. Yeah, like just Mosquito Netts. Do

35
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 7: you know what the medical assistance to Africa? And they

36
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 7: don't care. Project twenty twenty five doesn't care. I'm really

37
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 7: afraid of this administration's people. And I'm gonna tell you something, man,

38
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 7: it's this is my honest opinion, it's the people around

39
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 7: Donald Trump that are the most dangerous because I think

40
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 7: they play, you know, they play on the fact that

41
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 7: we support you, and they know he loves that.

42
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 2: But in saying we support you.

43
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 7: They are allowed to enact their policies around him.

44
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 2: And that's the danger man.

45
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 7: Project twenty twenty five came from this one guy who

46
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 7: sat on Donald Trump's plane and promised him his support,

47
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 7: and that's how he got it in and we're dealing

48
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 7: with Project twenty twenty five. Yeah, that's I'm just afraid

49
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 7: that this no aid to these countries are gonna help.

50
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 7: We were so slow in helping Puerto Rico.

51
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 5: I just we're the most powerful country in the world.

52
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 6: There's no way that some of this islands and the

53
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 6: richest in the Caribbean can rebuild without international support.

54
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 5: There's just no way. That's no way.

55
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 7: But you know, Carla, the reason you're considered the most

56
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 7: powerful nation in the world is because you've extended the

57
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 7: arm of aid and built allies around the world. Once

58
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 7: you start thinking you don't need other people, you don't.

59
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 2: Get to be big as you were. You just don't.

60
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 2: Because there's a lot of ill will.

61
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 7: Towards America right now because of their unwillingness to continue

62
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 7: being a source of aid that they've been for so long.

63
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 2: I feel like America is and I see you on life.

64
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 2: That's what it is about. And the beef is fading away bad.

65
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 7: You know, I think you're right, and you know, the

66
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 7: whole the whole thing of make America great again.

67
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 2: They didn't understand.

68
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,919
Speaker 7: Or then complete denial of how America was built in

69
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 7: the first place. Yeah, America was built on free label. Yeah,

70
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 7: exactly how they got into the eco industrial revolution with

71
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 7: money because they had free label.

72
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 5: Yeah.

73
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 7: And America, Europeans, all of they've built nothing of their own.

74
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 7: Take some somebody else already got men say is yours?

75
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 7: And then and then and yeah, and then act like

76
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 7: you didn't take it, like you've been there the whole.

77
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 2: Time, mad by.

78
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 7: Right and now LESSI race to history. So don't nobody

79
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 7: know what we did?

80
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 3: They want to do?

81
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 6: No, Yeah, carry us some organizations and charities that are

Speaker 6: offering relief and you can start with Jamaica Redcross dot org.

83
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 5: But I'm sure there are more.

84
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 3: All right, thank you guys. Switching gears.

85
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,239
Speaker 1: Now. I don't know if you knew about this, Steve,

86
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: but TMC recently caught an original king of comedy in

87
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: New York City. It wasn't you, obviously, but it was

88
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: Cedric the entertainer.

89
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 3: That's right. TMZ talked to set.

90
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,239
Speaker 1: He said about the jokes being made about food stamps

91
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: and said said said, no, that's not a joke. There

92
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: are so many people living in America with food insecurities.

93
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: The fact that the US government is willing to let

94
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: its own citizens starve is ridiculous. Said smirked and gave

95
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: his blessing and said, I do understand that we're going

96
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: to joke about everything. So do you guys send to

97
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: yourself or do you just love doing those edgy jokes?

98
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 4: I mean, I censor myself. I'm not messing up, no job,

99
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 4: I got, I got the censor. Well, it's always too

100
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 4: soon in this society. Yeah, you know, it is what

101
