Speaker 1: take two jump ropes. So hey, you guys, you know
Speaker 1: that this has been a week in America as like always,
Speaker 1: and I don't know where we started, but y'all lead
Speaker 1: it off because I'm ready to be chim me and
Speaker 1: I want you flame ester chime me and typing capital letters.
Speaker 1: Please please put a bunch of flames, and the questions
Speaker 1: that you all want to ask, put them here in
Speaker 1: capital letters. Nicholas, when he goes out and comes back
Speaker 1: in Nicholas will write down the pregnant questions and bring
Speaker 1: them out. Niggas right down the names of the person
Speaker 1: who said it too, so we can repeat their names
Speaker 1: out loud, because we might get a little deep today,
Speaker 1: just a little bit. I might that Loring get deep. Well,
Speaker 1: now we're starting with who you wanted to start with,
Speaker 1: Senator Tim Scott, So go ahead. Let's let the people
Speaker 1: start before we start with Tim Scott. The negativity. Let's
Speaker 1: start with the positivity of the wonderful speech that our president,
Speaker 1: President Joe Biden, has came out. And to say that
Speaker 1: it was a wonderful speech might be reaching. It's not.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say that it was a wonderful speech,
Speaker 1: but what it was was something that we had gotten
Speaker 1: unused to after four years he spoke presidential he spoke
Speaker 1: with political uh stature. He spoke like he has some
Speaker 1: goddamn since. He was calm. He was affectionate towards the
Speaker 1: American people, all people, not just the Democrats. Um. He
Speaker 1: pushed his plan to say what he wanted and what
Speaker 1: he was planning on doing. And people are giving him
Speaker 1: back last year because in a hundred days he's not
Speaker 1: We don't see him enough. He's not making enough. He's
Speaker 1: not supposed to be making a speech every day. He's
Speaker 1: in a position where he is doing his job. Did
Speaker 1: you not watch me on day ready when I said
Speaker 1: do your job? Player, Player is doing his job. So
Speaker 1: he does not have time to have a press conference
Speaker 1: every single day just because he wants to be on TV.
Speaker 1: So hats off to Joe Biden for making a speech. Yep, yep,
Speaker 1: he stumbled in his words, I stumbled him. I have
Speaker 1: called all my keys the wrong names. Just this morning,
Speaker 1: everybody get called I called ja Marcus. Is the is
Speaker 1: the ice area? Yeah? So Joe Biden, I'm with you, Player,
Speaker 1: I understand that we all make mistakes and hiccuffs. And
Speaker 1: y'all just ready to throw him up under the bus now.
Speaker 1: The rebuttal from the response back from the GOP that
Speaker 1: the one black senator Senator Republican, the one black man
Speaker 1: that they got the one black person which happens to
Speaker 1: be Temp Scott who volunteered to speak and came right
Speaker 1: out and said that America is not a racist country. Nigga,
Speaker 1: Stephen from Jane Go still lives. You are the reason
Speaker 1: that we are even were even slaves because you got
Speaker 1: us caught up with that BS that you were speaking.
Speaker 1: I'm not baning it. You can't sell it to me. Nigga.
Speaker 1: I was looking for the strings over your head connected
Speaker 1: to the marionette that was above you, because you were
Speaker 1: a puppet for the for those people. And you said
Speaker 1: and then they tried to say that Kamala Harris said.
Speaker 1: I listened to Kamala Harris's speech, and she, to be fair,
Speaker 1: pretty much said the exact same thing, almost except she said,
Speaker 1: but we cannot even or the ratio um history of
Speaker 1: this country. So she was acknowledging that she said that
Speaker 1: America is not racist. I understand her position and why
Speaker 1: she had to say that. You have to understand that
Speaker 1: she is the Vice President of the United States. She
Speaker 1: can very well can come on and say that the
Speaker 1: America is a racist country. Not if she thinks she's
Speaker 1: gonna go any further and order y'all. How they always Holly,
Speaker 1: you gotta have a seat at the table. You want
Speaker 1: to have it in order for how to get to
Speaker 1: the dinner table. She has to play well and play
Speaker 1: right at the at the lunch table. She's at the
Speaker 1: lunch table trying to get to the dinner table. So
Speaker 1: she her content and how she meant it was very
Speaker 1: different from how he meant it because they live very
Speaker 1: different lives. But I understood. I do not agree with
Speaker 1: our boss, Charlotmagne, the guy who I doore calling Kamala
Speaker 1: donkey the other day. I do not agree with that,
Speaker 1: but I'm not gonna blastartage because I could stop my
Speaker 1: checks any who. I do agree with him calling Tim
Speaker 1: Scott dunky of today. So that's my piece. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: let you all have the intel in part. I just
Speaker 1: had to say that part I come back in with
Speaker 1: a funny later. Flame is of course, talking about Joe
Speaker 1: Biden's first address to the Joint Sessions of Congress. UH.
Speaker 1: It did draw twenty two point eight million viewers across
Speaker 1: seven major networks, but it was however, flame a drop
Speaker 1: of forty seven percent from forty three million or so
Speaker 1: who tuned into the former president who was made for
Speaker 1: tv UM. But from the polls taken after President Biden's
Speaker 1: addressed to Joint Sessions of Congress, nearly two thirds of
Speaker 1: Americans are optimistic about the direction of the country, and
Speaker 1: they thought that his speech was presidential and that his
Speaker 1: speech was one of healing. What was your opinion, Well,
Speaker 1: the deal is, I don't necessarily move into space professionally
Speaker 1: where I have an opinion other than I'm like you all.
Speaker 1: I I thought that UM, and I still do. I
Speaker 1: think that that's a position that requires UM, a level
Speaker 1: of temperance, level of measure UM, and one that acknowledges
Speaker 1: the pain of other people, which is why I had
Speaker 1: issues with Senator Scott more, much more so than I
Speaker 1: did with Joe Biden. I totally UM, and we'll get
Speaker 1: into Scott and I won't won't go there yet. But
Speaker 1: the speech itself, it was almost soothing in its uneventfulness.
Speaker 1: That makes sense, Yeah, yeah, yeah, because we were so
Speaker 1: used to we had gotten so accustomed to the buffoonery
Speaker 1: every day from the last administration. So yeah, we didn't
Speaker 1: want that. We wanted something new, and we got something new.
Speaker 1: And I need you guys to understand that he is
Speaker 1: still knew he is one hundred days into this job,
Speaker 1: a hundred and what fast? Six seven days? I understand
Speaker 1: giving him give him an opportunity to prove himself, just
Speaker 1: like we're gonna give common an opportunity to prove herself.
Speaker 1: Y'all gave the other one for four years was made too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and y'all gave him an opportunity for four years and
Speaker 1: he still improved ship. We still five hundred and sixty
Speaker 1: thousand died from a pandemic that he did not address.
Speaker 1: So understand me. Yeah, ain't nobody dan? Well, people still dan,
Speaker 1: but not from that. And like we're saying, Lauren, history
Speaker 1: was made with both Kamala Harris and Nancy Pelosi, you
Speaker 1: know there, because we have never had these two women
Speaker 1: holding the top two positions of a succession of power.
Speaker 1: So this was history made here in the United States.
Speaker 1: So these are my sentiments. Um, I do agree with
Speaker 1: you on then, Joe Biden front. I think that we
Speaker 1: are so quick to um attack or you know, go
Speaker 1: after more so I think the Democrats more so than
Speaker 1: the GOP unfortunately, And I understand that a lot of
Speaker 1: people are angry, but I think that people in a
Speaker 1: lot of ways forget the entire we can call it
Speaker 1: a project, whether it's the economy, the immigration there, there
Speaker 1: was a myriad of things that Joe Biden and Kamala
Speaker 1: inherited that we're just terrible, just completely flawed, that they're
Speaker 1: working through. I also find it very interesting that in
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's speech, when he was talking about things for
Speaker 1: families and you know, just providing actual resources to people
Speaker 1: that are in need, especially during this COVID pandemic, all
Speaker 1: of the GOP was sitting down. Nobody was clapping. Shoot
Speaker 1: Ted Cruz was falling asleep. So I think that was
Speaker 1: deplorable and I think I hope people pay attention to that.
Speaker 1: On the remarks of saying that America isn't racist, I'm
Speaker 1: I'm a little um, I'm a little bothered by it.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. I know, flame you and I
Speaker 1: kind of talked about it. I understand why it may
Speaker 1: seem like Kamala needed to say that, but because she's
Speaker 1: trying to get the seat at the table. Sure totally
Speaker 1: acknowledge that but I think the flip side to that
Speaker 1: is that's not why she was elected. We elected you
Speaker 1: because we wanted you to hold people accountable, and you
Speaker 1: kind of being a flip flopper in that space because
Speaker 1: you gotta do what you need to do. I understand
Speaker 1: why a lot of people are come me after her
Speaker 1: for that, because you are the first woman of color
Speaker 1: to be sitting in this seat and one of the
Speaker 1: and after a first major address, you come out and
Speaker 1: say America isn't racist, but we're going to acknowledge all
Speaker 1: of its. We're gonna acknowledge the racist past of America's
Speaker 1: like so, I mean, I even sat there and I
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, maybe she approached this from a psychological standpoint,
Speaker 1: saying like the country can't have feelings. I really tried
Speaker 1: to dissect what she was saying. I was really trying
Speaker 1: to figure it out. So I'm I'm a little uneased
Speaker 1: by it. I'm not gonna lie. But I'm also a
Speaker 1: person that is very much so of actions speak louder
Speaker 1: than words. So although she said that, I want to
Speaker 1: see what she does on the front of I know
Speaker 1: she's at um at the helm and terms of the
Speaker 1: George Floyd bill that's trying to be passed. She's been
Speaker 1: at the front, forefront of the anti lynching bill with
Speaker 1: Emmett till so her actions have definitely spoke louder than
Speaker 1: these passwords that she said. But I'm I'm just I'm
Speaker 1: a little I'm a little uneased by it. I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna lie you know what too, though, Lauren, I think
Speaker 1: the other reason I give Kamala not a pass. But
Speaker 1: I look at it differently. Kama was asked a question
Speaker 1: about responding to something that he said. She didn't introduce
Speaker 1: this Tim Scott came out of nowhere saying, oh and
Speaker 1: by the way, grocery list, barbershop, dry cleaning, oh and
Speaker 1: race in America is not a racist country. Like whoa
Speaker 1: where did that come from? It came out of nowhere.
Speaker 1: So now I'm in a position as Kamala where I've
Speaker 1: got to respond to something that they said and try
Speaker 1: to maybe because what I felt like Tim Scott did
Speaker 1: not do. He can very well feel like it's not
Speaker 1: a racist country. Then you have a responsibility to explain
Speaker 1: to me why you feel like it's not a racist country.
Speaker 1: And I don't feel as though he did that. I
Speaker 1: feel as though as an elected official, he has a
Speaker 1: responsibility to acknowledge the pain of his constituents, and I
Speaker 1: felt like it was such a dismissal to just say
Speaker 1: America is not a racist country. We don't give up.
Speaker 1: First of all, that's that's started that, Sarce niggas. I
Speaker 1: love the point that you pame with that. Now, that
Speaker 1: was a good point. But this nigga don't care. This
Speaker 1: nigga don't even know that he's a black man. Let
Speaker 1: me understand that they he is a pawn for the GOP.
Speaker 1: They don't give damn about this clown. Then you hear
Speaker 1: me tell you. I was looking for the strings because
Speaker 1: somebody was above his head making somebody put a meme
Speaker 1: up from the fat Albert and he was one of
Speaker 1: the one with the who was the head with the
Speaker 1: Tim Scott looks just like that goofy dor. He looks
Speaker 1: like black Patrick from a SpongeBob. He looked like a
Speaker 1: black starfish. You know, he reminds me of you guys
Speaker 1: have for seen that episode of The Dave Chappelle Show
Speaker 1: where Dave Chappelle doesn't know that he's black in the
Speaker 1: skin and he keeps yelling white power yeah, that's that's
Speaker 1: Tim Scott. That's Tim Scott. Tim Scott is the reason
Speaker 1: we are fucking slaves. Let me say and tell the nigger.
Speaker 1: I said, because they caught a goofy ass nigger like that,
Speaker 1: who had no backbone, no span, who was nothing. Captain him.
Speaker 1: What gave that nigga a chicken sandwich? And say wait,
Speaker 1: they he brought him right to us. We've been over
Speaker 1: here ever since with fighting for damn chicken. You know
Speaker 1: how much you love chicken. Nigglas. I don't like the
Speaker 1: fact that this nigga volunteered to speak. Of all the
Speaker 1: Republicans that could have speak, you could have got Lindsay Graham,
Speaker 1: you could have got Bootleg as here, who was only
Speaker 1: falling asleep because he given them payback because when he
Speaker 1: spoke on the Congress floor for twenty four hours or
Speaker 1: twenty seven hours however long, everybody was sleep while he
Speaker 1: was repeating nursery rams of green eggs and ham. That's
Speaker 1: that's that's payback. He was mad because people was falling
Speaker 1: asleep on his stupid ass. And I called him stupid
Speaker 1: because he's stupid and texteds y'all keep voting for him
Speaker 1: and he's stupid. So what that makes the ones who
Speaker 1: vote for him? Yeah, baby, let me tell you something,
Speaker 1: Tim Scott is Stephen from Django, and Stephen from Django
Speaker 1: does not have to have be a man. We got
Speaker 1: uh Candice Owens, Stephen from Django, we got Angela Stanton,
Speaker 1: we got Van Jones. It's so many iffy niggas. We
Speaker 1: got uh Kanye West, who now is not only UH
Speaker 1: sellout but divorced. Uh. It's it's it is disheardening for
Speaker 1: young black men to see this man on TV and
Speaker 1: disregard and dismiss his own people for what a check
Speaker 1: for some power? Because Tim Scott, when they're done, when
Speaker 1: it's all said and done, you are just the ignorant
Speaker 1: nigga in the room that they can control. That's what
Speaker 1: you don't understand about who you are. You are the
Speaker 1: ignorant nigga in the room that they can't control. Period.
Speaker 1: Well on that note, um, let's bring in some flamets
Speaker 1: to kind of see that we can let them sound
Speaker 1: off because I'm ready today. Baby. My text hide on
Speaker 1: how y'all doing good? How are you? I'm good? Can
Speaker 1: y'all hear me? Yeah, we can hear you. We can
Speaker 1: hear you go ahead, I was. I was from what
Speaker 1: y'all were talking about the presidential speech. I didn't listen
Speaker 1: to them because I'm a little upset about what's going
Speaker 1: on right now. I heard, but um uh, VP said,
Speaker 1: I understand what you were saying. Flame, but I just
Speaker 1: feel like the vice president is black. One is convenient.
Speaker 1: That's my thing. But done and then done. Now you know,
Speaker 1: I was teamed. I didn't want Commla Harris for president,
Speaker 1: but when she became, and when she got put in
Speaker 1: that position, it was it was the lesser of two
Speaker 1: evils for us A and then be now, mind you
Speaker 1: doing you work? You work for, and you know who
Speaker 1: you work for. If she would have came out and
Speaker 1: put him on blast, they already was against common hell.
Speaker 1: You got to understand that there is a bigger picture
Speaker 1: and a bigger fish for her to fry. So I
Speaker 1: get how she's what she said. And then right after
Speaker 1: she said that, she did say, but we cannot negate
Speaker 1: the racist history. So what she was trying to do
Speaker 1: was appease everybody. I get that part his the way
Speaker 1: he said, it did not mean that the way she said,
Speaker 1: even though they said the same thing. That the content
Speaker 1: was different. But but what my biggest thing is when
Speaker 1: he got up there in his acceptance speech, he said
Speaker 1: the President Biden said, the black community, black people, you
Speaker 1: got me in. I won't forget. But we're still weight.
Speaker 1: Well he only been in a hundred and eight days.
Speaker 1: But let me okay, so let me let me interject
Speaker 1: really quick down though. So I want to say that
Speaker 1: I think that the flip side of this is to
Speaker 1: Don's point, Joe Biden acknowledged that he got black people elected. Right. Uh,
Speaker 1: the anti lynching bill still hasn't been passed in the
Speaker 1: last hundred days. The Asians got a hate crime bill
Speaker 1: passed in these past one hundred days. Um, what's been
Speaker 1: done for the black community so far? Nothing? And and
Speaker 1: and that's the problem. And I would also say too,
Speaker 1: is we're talking about Kamala Harris appeasing people. The GOP
Speaker 1: has never tried to appease anyone except protect their own party.
Speaker 1: So why do we constantly have to fall on the sword?
Speaker 1: And why do we have to constantly appease the other
Speaker 1: side when they don't do the same thing for us?
Speaker 1: That's what makes Democrats look weak. But that's not anything either.
Speaker 1: And there. It is right there, and there it is
Speaker 1: right there. That's what exactly what's about to say anything?
Speaker 1: Because I'm every week we're on the news, some poor
Speaker 1: person get stopped and the end up date, Why aren't
Speaker 1: they protecting black people from these cops? Why aren't they
Speaker 1: doing that? Well, we've been talking about police reform for
Speaker 1: a minute. But the point that the point that you
Speaker 1: just said, and the point that you just made, So
Speaker 1: I get what Kamla. I get. I ain't given Kamla
Speaker 1: a pass. I understand that, but I don't want her
Speaker 1: remove that of position because she wants to. She will
Speaker 1: speak the way we want hurt to. Now, we also
Speaker 1: don't have enough power to keep her there if we're
Speaker 1: not gonna if they changing these voting laws in our faces,
Speaker 1: they are setting it up two in two. When the
Speaker 1: primary comes, it's going to be real shaky and baky,
Speaker 1: and a lot of us will not follow through and
Speaker 1: do our due diligence. I completely agree with what you're saying.
Speaker 1: What have they done for the black folks? But the GOP.
Speaker 1: But wait a minute, but the GOP fights when it
Speaker 1: comes down to to uh Republican stuff and the Democrat.
Speaker 1: We don't we we scattered exactly. We don't fight. We
Speaker 1: have to stay on this, you know. And and and
Speaker 1: and let me tell you something. He signed an executive
Speaker 1: order protecting protecting the transgender. No problem, but you black
Speaker 1: before your transgender. I've been saying that. That's that's that's
Speaker 1: that's the word. I don't have a problem with him
Speaker 1: signing bills to protect anybody, but it seems as though
Speaker 1: the people that put him and put people in office,
Speaker 1: not just him, but starting on the lawd level, they
Speaker 1: never forget, they never remember about the black community. And
Speaker 1: let me tell you something. If he does not sign
Speaker 1: and he see what he's doing, is that George Floord
Speaker 1: bill he pushing it on Congress. No, you don't have to.
Speaker 1: You can sign that bill, but what's gonna happen? And
Speaker 1: y'all mark my word. If he doesn't do anything to
Speaker 1: protect black people, Kamla won't get in because I'll be
Speaker 1: the main one not vote. I said it, I said
Speaker 1: what I said. Well, let's not no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1: I I don't agree with that done. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I gotta say I don't. But see that's the that's
Speaker 1: also the problem though that I will say on the
Speaker 1: flip side, I'm gonna play devil's advocate all day today.
Speaker 1: That's my issue too. On the flip side is when
Speaker 1: black people say, oh, our votes don't matter. If our
Speaker 1: votes didn't matter, they wouldn't be trying to suppress our
Speaker 1: votes so hard. They wouldn't be putting all of these
Speaker 1: bills into it so just because we may not just
Speaker 1: because we may not get something that we want. Now,
Speaker 1: what's the lesser of two evils? Having another Republican in
Speaker 1: that seat or having somebody on our side that has
Speaker 1: a little more work to do. But he ain't doing nothing,
Speaker 1: He ain't own outside because he hasn't done anything to
Speaker 1: help us, Lauren, he has not done I understand that,
Speaker 1: and I understand the frustration. But it's still only been
Speaker 1: a hundred and six days. Okay, but he got how
Speaker 1: many days left? But why, that's the first thing you
Speaker 1: should have done when you got an office, when you
Speaker 1: signed the Executive Order to protect the transper transgender people
Speaker 1: and the Asian people, black people or we should have
Speaker 1: been number one, but you should sign one for black
Speaker 1: people things as though nobody did everybody forget about the
Speaker 1: black people. Do you honestly think them old white folks
Speaker 1: care about the Mt. Till Bill. It's been fifty years.
Speaker 1: They can go another fifty years. They don't care. If
Speaker 1: they can kill black people, they're doing it already. What
Speaker 1: do they care. I don I hear you. I know
Speaker 1: exactly where you are. But I'm telling you right now,
Speaker 1: we we came push not not voting. Understand me, done that.
Speaker 1: If we wouldn't have voted this time, we couldn't survived.
Speaker 1: We would not have survived another four years of Trump.
Speaker 1: We would not have survived it. I totally agree with you, Flame,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna argue with you on that. I totally agree.
Speaker 1: But he's not doing what he should have done in
Speaker 1: the very first two weeks in office because we're the
Speaker 1: ones that got him in. They if it wasn't for
Speaker 1: Stacey Abrams, none of this will be going on. Well,
Speaker 1: he's still in a position where he is not in
Speaker 1: total control. You know, he still got to go through
Speaker 1: loops and even though he's the president United States. And
Speaker 1: what it looks like is that Trump did whatever he
Speaker 1: wanted to do. But Trump also had all his cronies
Speaker 1: and positions of power that made it easier for his
Speaker 1: stuff to get past See this goes back to what
Speaker 1: what you have said, what Lauren has said, what Dawn
Speaker 1: his I mean, what Alison has said. We got to
Speaker 1: start locally in order to get people into positions that
Speaker 1: when we get to federal See, he was pushing all
Speaker 1: those people. Every day he would come on and every
Speaker 1: day that was a killing, or he would come on
Speaker 1: and say something outrageous or do something outrageous. In the
Speaker 1: entire time while we were sitting here watching him on
Speaker 1: the news with our mouth open, flabber gases, the GOP
Speaker 1: was implementing, putting judges, putting senators. They were moving in
Speaker 1: spaces quietly that we were so busy watching this clown
Speaker 1: on TV, and they were putting. They were setting it up.
Speaker 1: Pay attention. That is set up for two. They're trying
Speaker 1: to make some moves so we cannot throw all this
Speaker 1: in fighting done. I hear you doing. I'm telling you
Speaker 1: so you know I'm with you. But if we don't
Speaker 1: stop in fighting, we're gonna lose again. But we're gonna
Speaker 1: lose major lygue next time, we're gonna really lose major league.
Speaker 1: Next time they don't get off their butts and do
Speaker 1: something for black people. Now, people are color black people.
Speaker 1: They always want to look everybody together. No, because you
Speaker 1: don't look black people, you're killing us. That's the truth.
Speaker 1: I'm not voting flame. I'm just not voting for them.
Speaker 1: I'm not voting for him because they are totally wrong
Speaker 1: and what they're doing to us totally wrong. Well, who
Speaker 1: are you gonna vote for it? And done? I don't
Speaker 1: voting the presidential I can vote on the state level
Speaker 1: and for other things that's gonna that's gonna be going on.
Speaker 1: I don't have to vote the presidential election. See, No,
Speaker 1: that's the problem. You still gotta vote. You still gotta
Speaker 1: vote on. I can't get with you on that one.
Speaker 1: I'm just now who Well, we'll just have to see. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we have to hidden because honestly, not voting on the
Speaker 1: presidential levels how we got Donald Trump elected. That's exactly
Speaker 1: how you got elected. Listened on. Just have a little patience.
Speaker 1: I promise you. I think that things will I think
Speaker 1: that things are going to get better. I'm telling you
Speaker 1: it is. We can't make it happen overnight. We expected
Speaker 1: the same thing from Obama. We expect the same thing
Speaker 1: for President Biden. Do not because they had a Republican Senate.
Speaker 1: I knew that and gonna happen. Well, this is what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. We're still right there with Joe Biden and
Speaker 1: the Senate. Now now he has the House and we're
Speaker 1: tied for the Senate. And with the House, we just
Speaker 1: lost eleven seats. They're predicting that we're gonna lose eleven seats.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you his hands are tad as well because
Speaker 1: people because of the census report, so they said we're
Speaker 1: about to lose eleven seats. Yeah, I did hear that.
Speaker 1: We'll see y'all. Yeah, we're gonna happen. Watch and if
Speaker 1: I'm wrong, I'll be on it. We don't want you
Speaker 1: to be wrong. We want you to be patient, and
Speaker 1: we still want you to vote because I may be wrong.
Speaker 1: I'm going to vote. I'm going to vote. We're just
Speaker 1: gonna see who's gonna be the players. Girl, you're gonna
Speaker 1: make me run. Let me get these let me get
Speaker 1: these cities, Let me run. You and I you make
Speaker 1: more sense and you talk more practical than say. I
Speaker 1: don't like these politicians because all they're talking is bullshit.
Speaker 1: Don't talk. Don't talk. I can sell it, you know, matter.
Speaker 1: You tell me no, we ain't doing that. Ye, done,
Speaker 1: We're not doing that? Then tell me, well, no, the
Speaker 1: hell with y'all. Okay, girl, you appreciate you bringing my
Speaker 1: ten dollar pamp okay, Oh and bringing Allison too. That's
Speaker 1: through both of them. Hi, folks, Hi, so listen and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hi, Hi, Bobby, I were you so let
Speaker 1: me because I was listening to miss done. Understand this,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, Yes, I understand what Kamala said, but
Speaker 1: flame I'm with you. She has to play the game, right.
Speaker 1: Do I agree with what she said? Do I believe
Speaker 1: she could have said it differently? Yes? She could have
Speaker 1: right because she has put the context differently. Yes she
Speaker 1: could have right, But that's neither here nor there. Right.
Speaker 1: I want to get own, ladies and gentlemen, how important.
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna keep preaching this until somebody say else
Speaker 1: to shut up? Right? If you understand your local election, right,
Speaker 1: don't keep saying but what is the what are they
Speaker 1: doing for black people? Do you know your city commissioners right?
Speaker 1: Who's affecting you every day? Your city commissioners controls your
Speaker 1: local government that controls how much taxes you pay. They
Speaker 1: control they control with your electric bill, right, they control
Speaker 1: about their control about your your your your hospitals and
Speaker 1: things of that nature. Right. So those are the things
Speaker 1: that we as black people, that we got to get
Speaker 1: firm in our local elections because let me tell you something,
Speaker 1: if our local government start looking differently, trust me, that
Speaker 1: federal is gonna look differently because who's at the federal
Speaker 1: federal is who is who is who was once at
Speaker 1: your local And I'll say this again, that's why Tim
Speaker 1: Scott is where he is because we didn't take his
Speaker 1: ascuse my language, we didn't his ass out in a
Speaker 1: local election. And I'm not and I know I'm coming
Speaker 1: out aggressive, but understand something, ladies and gentlemen, let's get
Speaker 1: on this. Well, what are they doing for black people?
Speaker 1: Know what is going on in your local community that's
Speaker 1: affecting you every day, because that's why we're upset, because
Speaker 1: we're paying too much taxes. While on one side of
Speaker 1: the river, on their side, they're beautifying, right and preserving.
Speaker 1: But on our side, where our grandmama's an aunties live, right,
Speaker 1: they pushing us out and displacing us. And let me
Speaker 1: tell y'all something else. Y'all see how we're online right now? Right,
Speaker 1: We're in a global We're in a global market where
Speaker 1: our world is globally. Do you know how many of
Speaker 1: our grandmothers and aunts and moms mothers couldn't go to
Speaker 1: the doctor during COVID because uh, they didn't have broadband
Speaker 1: system with the internet in urban communities. Right, So how
Speaker 1: and and and I we are online now, Our babies
Speaker 1: are online. A lot of our students weren't even able
Speaker 1: to get access to the internet due to the LTE
Speaker 1: the fiber lines that they put around our neighborhoods right
Speaker 1: to allow us to get access to internet. So see,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, before we start saying what is Biden
Speaker 1: doing for black people? What are we doing in our
Speaker 1: local community to ensure our babies and our grandmothers and
Speaker 1: our youth is able to have access to the things
Speaker 1: that they need. We got to start at our local community.
Speaker 1: That's what we need to take the frustration speaking. I'm
Speaker 1: telling y'all and nom it's done. I'm not coming for
Speaker 1: you and I'm not with that. I'm just about educating
Speaker 1: my people because it is time for us to cut
Speaker 1: this foolishness out. What are we who are we holding
Speaker 1: accountable and on our city commission? Are we holding our
Speaker 1: mayor's accountable? Because let me tell you something, in different
Speaker 1: states and in different cities, we all get a different
Speaker 1: what they all get a different uh salary to sit
Speaker 1: on these boards, and that's coming from your tax dollars.
Speaker 1: Understand this, ladies and gentlemen, Well, that goes to even
Speaker 1: the voting rights bills that are constantly coming up now
Speaker 1: in these different states. So yeah, absolutely, because y'all just
Speaker 1: got one pass You just got one passed in Florida.
Speaker 1: Y'all just got that voting bill passed with the santus
Speaker 1: in Florida. It's illegal to protests in Florida. Now you
Speaker 1: can get arrested for that. They also passed the age
Speaker 1: B one bill. Well, Allison, what is that? That's the
Speaker 1: anti rioting deal? Right? You can get a third degree
Speaker 1: felling behind that. And you know why that happened at
Speaker 1: you know where he signed that at right where I
Speaker 1: am running and at Lakeland, at for Lakeland City Commissioner,
Speaker 1: right there in Lakeland, Florida. So yes, ladies and gentlemen,
Speaker 1: we have to know this stuff. We can't sit around
Speaker 1: and say what Biden doing and what Kamala doing. Okay,
Speaker 1: does she miss folk Okay, she took it out of contest,
Speaker 1: But how many times they don't? How many times did
Speaker 1: Trump and say all types of crazy stuff? He was excused, Well,
Speaker 1: and you know what, I'm gonna go ahead and say this.
Speaker 1: And I may not have too many people who like
Speaker 1: me today, but let's stop putting our foots on black
Speaker 1: women so much. Let's stop. Let's stop putting our feet
Speaker 1: on each other. So, my god, Okay, she missed folke,
Speaker 1: she said something out of contact. My god, forget that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: forget it, and remember and remember that, and remember the
Speaker 1: position that she is in and how much juice that
Speaker 1: she has and has talked about doing, and it's making
Speaker 1: things happen, starting with border patrol. See we get I'm
Speaker 1: with you, Allison. Take their feet from the fire. Give
Speaker 1: them an opportunity to prove their work, that they can
Speaker 1: do this job. It's not even a hundred days. You
Speaker 1: can't always do it in a hundred should I couldn't
Speaker 1: do I couldn't do I driving a hundred days. Right,
Speaker 1: Your emotion, your your your your tenacity is what's needed
Speaker 1: in the Democratic Party. If they were as passionate as
Speaker 1: you are right now and put up a fight because
Speaker 1: they all act like pussies to me. Let me just
Speaker 1: say what I see. The Democratic Party need to get
Speaker 1: some backbones. Y'all need some balls. You can borrow man
Speaker 1: if you need to, but y'all need some balls because
Speaker 1: this is why the GOP keep dominating us, because they're
Speaker 1: not afraid to speak, they're not afraid to say how
Speaker 1: they feel. And then when they get a line, they
Speaker 1: all stay aligned on one thing. It's one thing, money
Speaker 1: power Democrats. Well, I think you can even take the
Speaker 1: fact that you still have the GOP rooting for Trump
Speaker 1: and saying that the election was fraud and he's been
Speaker 1: how many months later and they're still in alignment with them.
Speaker 1: And I was listening to all the shows and each show,
Speaker 1: every show, Face the Nation, Meet the Press, Cuomo, that
Speaker 1: that's all saying that there's still he still hasn't conceded.
Speaker 1: And you know I do, Um, John, I want JHN
Speaker 1: to vote period, because we don't vote. That vote goes
Speaker 1: to the other side. Well we don't. You know, it's
Speaker 1: it's a vote for let's say from US moves up again,
Speaker 1: it's a vote for Trump, um, And I do think.
Speaker 1: I mean, I understand the frustration. I would want to
Speaker 1: see something concrete being done. But he really is, but
Speaker 1: just in back channel ways. Like Allison just mentioned, he's
Speaker 1: he's trying to improve the infrastructure for the for you know,
Speaker 1: urban areas and areas they don't have have money. Of course,
Speaker 1: we're still arguing on what infrastructure actually means. But he's
Speaker 1: just not doing it out front, you know, like big, big,
Speaker 1: flourishing stuff. He's doing more from from the back end
Speaker 1: the schooling to to two years of school. I love
Speaker 1: that American Family Plan he's putting in fingers crossed. He
Speaker 1: gets all that stuff done. That's that's moneys that are
Speaker 1: gonna lower child kids. Girl we got on his background
Speaker 1: noise girl, stop la. You can't eat chickfilate on my platform.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm sorry. But he's trying to get like
Speaker 1: to million billion excuse me, um passed for for preschool
Speaker 1: for the kids. So he's doing it. It's just not
Speaker 1: as flashy, and you know, I wish there were other
Speaker 1: ways that he was doing it. But he is doing stuff.
Speaker 1: He's just not he's not hitting the big, the big
Speaker 1: whoam not well. I want to say this too, though,
Speaker 1: and Alison please feel free to chime in. I think
Speaker 1: also at least because like I said, I worked for
Speaker 1: a nonprofit and we do a lot of advocacy work.
Speaker 1: I think the other thing that's important is that even
Speaker 1: at the local level and the state level, a lot
Speaker 1: of people don't know what's in certain bills. They hear,
Speaker 1: you know, more so of the big pictures of things,
Speaker 1: and you know, maybe some major initiatives that we just
Speaker 1: see on the news, but people actually don't know what's
Speaker 1: in bills. So while a lot of people may feel
Speaker 1: like you know, which I can understand, the sentiment of
Speaker 1: black people haven't been necessarily a priority in this new administration,
Speaker 1: yet there have been some strides that have been taken
Speaker 1: for the black No, no, no, no no, not at all, Bobby.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying in general, it goes to what Allison
Speaker 1: has been saying, is that we need to do more
Speaker 1: research because there have been small strides and I am
Speaker 1: calling them small strides and some bills UM at the
Speaker 1: you know, at this not at the state level, but
Speaker 1: more so from UM. But there it has been some
Speaker 1: strides that have been taken in some of these federal bills.
Speaker 1: But I just don't feel like we're actually doing the
Speaker 1: research and actually investigating them. Allison, please try them in right,
Speaker 1: so and see this is and and see I teach children.
Speaker 1: So y'all, please forgive me if I if I if
Speaker 1: I am breaking it down like you all are children.
Speaker 1: So see, let me let me explain something to you
Speaker 1: on what I tell my children all the time. Read
Speaker 1: what do not believe what nobody tell you. Go read
Speaker 1: it for yourself because at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: you're understanding my understanding. The way I process, and the
Speaker 1: way Lauren process, and the way Flame is gonna process.
Speaker 1: We're gonna process it all differently. And the reason why
Speaker 1: because research tells us we've all had different backgrounds, right,
Speaker 1: we were all raised in different states, we were all
Speaker 1: raised by different people, right, so our process is going
Speaker 1: to be different. Go read it for yourself. It's available information.
Speaker 1: But also with the bills, Lauren, as you stated again,
Speaker 1: I say go read them. But that's why you have
Speaker 1: you put and you vote the right people into office
Speaker 1: to be able to break these bills down to you. Right,
Speaker 1: it is there. It is your local state representative to
Speaker 1: break bills down to you. It is your It is
Speaker 1: your local government. Um uh job to break these bills
Speaker 1: down to you to no one's being signed. You should
Speaker 1: never see in your paper on your phone, Oh this
Speaker 1: bill was signed today. And you know who you should
Speaker 1: hold accountable for that, your congressman right or your state representative,
Speaker 1: because there should never be there should never be a
Speaker 1: day that you that I that I looked at my
Speaker 1: phone and found out. Oh, Reverend, Reverend Lord and my
Speaker 1: promise and Reverend, but Governor Randy Santus is in my
Speaker 1: city signing a signing an h B one bill right
Speaker 1: in my city, giving my city for forty two point
Speaker 1: one million dollars for a part. No, not when we
Speaker 1: not when we have children who can't access internet, but
Speaker 1: y'all giving it to a part. So who do I blame?
Speaker 1: I blame the local commissioners. I blame the state representatives.
Speaker 1: So yes, that is why I say read for yourself,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, because nobody, nobody in this world can
Speaker 1: can tell you anything because you read it for yourself.
Speaker 1: It is your own understanding in the Bible that talks
Speaker 1: about not to get spiritual lean not on your own understanding.
Speaker 1: Let me read it for yourself. Yeah, but what if
Speaker 1: I can't read. What if I can't read? What if
Speaker 1: I read numbers? And you know, signs and symbols, statis
Speaker 1: I said audio? We got audio books these days, right,
Speaker 1: And Alison, you know that's my motto. Do you see
Speaker 1: what I see? I asked my listeners that all the
Speaker 1: time because I see the same thing y'all see. But
Speaker 1: do you see what I see? Because I see it
Speaker 1: happening right in our faces. That's why my my motto
Speaker 1: is pay attention because a lot of us are just
Speaker 1: not paying attention to what is happening right in our faces.
Speaker 1: And I love that we got such diversity coming onto
Speaker 1: the platform or whether it's coffee time or here and
Speaker 1: laugh and learn to show the differences. Bobby, if we
Speaker 1: had if we had forty of white people, that was fair,
Speaker 1: like you, just fair. It's not even about not being race,
Speaker 1: it's just being fair. This country will be in a
Speaker 1: better place. And thank you, Bob before just acknowledging that
Speaker 1: a person is a person. You know, I don't know
Speaker 1: how you could teach that to your other to other people.
Speaker 1: But I don't understand. I'm not understanding the racism. And
Speaker 1: the more and more the older I get, I don't
Speaker 1: understand how I don't like you because your skin color
Speaker 1: is different from my skin color. I don't understand that.
Speaker 1: I just don't. Yeah, well, we appreciate you both, we
Speaker 1: really do. But look at the American family play and everybody.
Speaker 1: Because this is also he really wants to expand the
Speaker 1: nutrition for kids that are out food insecure. So we
Speaker 1: really want to push this when when we do come
Speaker 1: up in twenty two for elections, make sure that the
Speaker 1: people you're voting for believing us. What is for you?
Speaker 1: No food? Oh? I thought you mad for she said
Speaker 1: food insecure. I thought she said the food. I thought.
Speaker 1: I was like, you're the fats. Just need to start
Speaker 1: get your fa gets away from the table when I want.
Speaker 1: I just don't have a table for the kids that
Speaker 1: don't have a table to make sure that they're getting
Speaker 1: something when their family can't provide for them. I was
Speaker 1: one of them, get Bobby, I was one of them.
Speaker 1: I was one of them kids. We didn't have a table.
Speaker 1: We did sometimes we didn't have people, so you don't
Speaker 1: have the food and refrigerator. Baby, Sometimes we didn't have
Speaker 1: a refrigerator. My mom was on druids for years and
Speaker 1: years and years so I get it, and I know
Speaker 1: this would you being out of school, A lot of
Speaker 1: those kids can't eat, they only would eat. And so
Speaker 1: I get that. I get that You're exactly right, and
Speaker 1: this would help, like send them home with meals for
Speaker 1: anybody that's under a team within their home at least
Speaker 1: that those kids would be eating at night and they
Speaker 1: don't have to wait until next morning. So and putting
Speaker 1: stuff and the only thing I wanted to say about
Speaker 1: God just my second. I feel like he was being
Speaker 1: so used and he missed it. The one thing that
Speaker 1: blew my mind and and um, the president's speech is
Speaker 1: when they said that they wanted to he wanted to
Speaker 1: lower kids poverty by fifty percent, and not one Republican
Speaker 1: including him, Crump and Tim Scott supposedly was raised in poverty.
Speaker 1: He doesn't think that's important. And this is why this
Speaker 1: that's and that is why it was so easy for
Speaker 1: him to sell his soul for a dollar, Bobby, because
Speaker 1: he has sold his soul exactly. I get feeling a
Speaker 1: little used, Phaim, Like when you look and say why
Speaker 1: am I? Why am I being the only one I'll
Speaker 1: say this. I'll say this, Um, all skin folk and
Speaker 1: kin folk. We know that very well. And sometimes people
Speaker 1: that may look like us feel more comfortable around people
Speaker 1: who look like you, Bobby. And that's what it is.
Speaker 1: He's more comfortable being accepted by folks that look like
Speaker 1: you and not by his own king folks. That's just
Speaker 1: what it is. And let me just say this. Come on,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say I'm not even doing color. I'm just
Speaker 1: doing party like Shame on them. You don't want that
Speaker 1: that tig a volunteer to speak. He knew he was
Speaker 1: a sellout as nigger from JOMP. Come on with it, Alison.
Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna with this. And and since we talk,
Speaker 1: you know, and let me just say this to the
Speaker 1: to black folk, because you know, I'm a teacher and
Speaker 1: one of my students, Um was shot in the head
Speaker 1: on Saturday shop and innocent by standard. Let me tell
Speaker 1: us parents something. You all keep the educate your children,
Speaker 1: educate yourself, and educate your children right, because our children
Speaker 1: are dying, not just by the police, by by the
Speaker 1: hands of our own right. So ensure that we have
Speaker 1: a handle on our children. Encourage your children for it
Speaker 1: to be educated. You know what I mean that school
Speaker 1: is important. There is no other way, you know, make
Speaker 1: your children read. I can't stress that enough. And and listen,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, because we're not dying just by the
Speaker 1: hands of the police. We're dying by our hands as well.
Speaker 1: So we keep hold of your babies. Educate your babies,
Speaker 1: encourage your babies to be educated, and stay in this
Speaker 1: fight because I'm telling you, even after me, somebody else
Speaker 1: gonna have to come after me. And it's and it's
Speaker 1: to teach, and it's the children that I'm teaching, which
Speaker 1: is why I'm in the classroom. So yes, you all stay, encourage,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you all. Great conversation. No no, So
Speaker 1: follow Allison at Alison Lewis Lakeland. She's running for city
Speaker 1: council in Lakeland, Florida. So if you guys in that vicinity,
Speaker 1: please do you can donate to her, to her campaign.
Speaker 1: What's your cash? What's you how we donate Allison? It's
Speaker 1: you all. I'm gonna put it. I'm gonna put it
Speaker 1: in the Chattis al Lewis campaign, al Lewis campaign, and
Speaker 1: you should be able to write off this Chick fil
Speaker 1: a launch is a business one for her. Number two.
Speaker 1: I like the number four myself. We love you were
Speaker 1: going to say something come with Allison. Two things you
Speaker 1: said that I just absolutely love because I always get
Speaker 1: flame nooses, I get criticizes for all the all the time.
Speaker 1: I love that you said we've got to stop putting
Speaker 1: our foot on the necks of black women, Like I
Speaker 1: really that that just resonated with me because I feel
Speaker 1: like the criticism Kamala has gotten for just speaking and
Speaker 1: being asked a direct question has just been uh vicious. Right.
Speaker 1: But going back to something else, you also talked about
Speaker 1: starting local and what has Joe Biden done for black people.
Speaker 1: There are two things and Lauren and I've talked about
Speaker 1: this that I think is overlooked, but I think it's important.
Speaker 1: He immediately reversed the decision for prisons for profit like
Speaker 1: that that you can't do that anymore. And there have
Speaker 1: been prisons that have been I believe, No, I don't
Speaker 1: have evidence of this. I think that they have profited
Speaker 1: from incarcerating man of color and people of color um
Speaker 1: And so when you have a prison system that is
Speaker 1: built on profit, I think that that works against the
Speaker 1: idea of reformative behavior, you know, I think that it
Speaker 1: then becomes if it's for profit, you're clearly not doing both.
Speaker 1: And the other thing that Joe Biden did that I
Speaker 1: also think it's equally important. He immediately came in and
Speaker 1: he reversed President Trump's seventeen seventy six commission, which said
Speaker 1: that the Civil Rights Act never should have happened. So
Speaker 1: I think that those things, to me are are subsitive
Speaker 1: and and and they matter. And you're right, Bobby Clifford.
Speaker 1: They're not as flashy as some of the other things
Speaker 1: that I think people want to see. Of course, we'd
Speaker 1: love to see, uh, something anti lent. I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't see that being depressing issue right now. But I
Speaker 1: do see infrastructure being depressing issue. The fact that there
Speaker 1: are people who are still living in communities who don't
Speaker 1: have access to the internet is absolutely ridiculous in the
Speaker 1: richest country in the United States. I'm off my soapbox.
Speaker 1: That's it. Since you guys mentioned uh, Joe Biden, and
Speaker 1: he mentioned the transgender community, and he said specifically the
Speaker 1: transgender community. I applaud you for that, because most of
Speaker 1: the presidents, including Obama, would just say LGBT. What you
Speaker 1: guys don't understand is that the LGBT and the trans
Speaker 1: community are two very different entities. I know that sounds
Speaker 1: like flame. What are you talking about? The gay community
Speaker 1: and the trans community are two very separate entities and
Speaker 1: you have to be part of it really to know
Speaker 1: that that that they treat the trans community like the
Speaker 1: bottom of the bear. They really do. So for him
Speaker 1: to acknowledge us was a wonderful thing. I just hope
Speaker 1: that the trans community, my brothers and sisters don't jump
Speaker 1: on the bandwagon as soon as he made a mistake
Speaker 1: or he falls short of something that he said he
Speaker 1: would do to help us and he doesn't follow through
Speaker 1: in a timely fashion for you all, and y'all throw
Speaker 1: him up under the bus because we are notorious for
Speaker 1: turning on people who are trying to help us because
Speaker 1: they didn't move fast enough for our pace. Let me
Speaker 1: just say that, and that's a fair assessment. If you
Speaker 1: don't like it, you know, I don't give a fuck.
Speaker 1: So yeah, come on with it, because you're all gonna
Speaker 1: do ship. You know what you could do. You mad
Speaker 1: at me? You know my motto, kiss my straight in
Speaker 1: the face. Wait a minute, what happened, Lauren? Nothing? I
Speaker 1: think I think all of this conversation is a good
Speaker 1: segue to talk about were talking about topics that matter.
Speaker 1: So I think we can talk about these voting rights
Speaker 1: bills before we ran. Well, since we aren't transgender, can
Speaker 1: we stay on that one please? I can get this out.
Speaker 1: You know what's coming on. So since we're speaking about
Speaker 1: sounds for the GOP, yes, I've got breaking news for
Speaker 1: you to share. Just so tell it, tell it. Oh well, um,
Speaker 1: it looks like Billy Melenda Gates are splitty. That's cause
Speaker 1: Melenda and figured out that this nigga trying to get
Speaker 1: rid of some people. She might have been. What's Jeff
Speaker 1: Beazel's wife name? She just joined the Bandwagon's wife's name
Speaker 1: is sixty billion dollars. Give a damn what her name is?
Speaker 1: She got sixty billion dollars, get plenty change. Let's go
Speaker 1: and she know the secrets. Uh, let's go back to
Speaker 1: um talking about the transgender community and the second clown
Speaker 1: that they're using. The GOP is using that the GOP
Speaker 1: and never cared about black rights, black equality, none of that.
Speaker 1: But y'all got Tim Scott speaking. Now, y'all got Kaitlyn Jenner,
Speaker 1: who is admitted and admitted Republican and said it on
Speaker 1: Diane Sawyer. That's come out the woolworks to say that
Speaker 1: she's running for the government for the state of California,
Speaker 1: the fourth Lodger's economy locally right everywhere, right, California globally. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so that's the word I was looking for. Thank you. See,
Speaker 1: I got caught up, and I'm not Joe Biden. I
Speaker 1: got caught up. In my words, it happens. But this
Speaker 1: clown they are using her. They have never Trump has
Speaker 1: never acknowledged her. She I want to have a meeting
Speaker 1: with Trump. She went to use the restroom at Trump
Speaker 1: Tower was nobody. There was nobody in there. She had
Speaker 1: one person with it with a camera. I don't know
Speaker 1: whether she went to a man's room other women's room.
Speaker 1: But the stuff that she is speaking now about all
Speaker 1: the trans rights, the trans athletes shouldn't fight against the women.
Speaker 1: I said that two years ago on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: They're using everything that I said against me, what Caitlin
Speaker 1: not against me to to to further their plight. Caitlyn
Speaker 1: Jenner message to you, sweetheart, the only thing that you
Speaker 1: need to run for is to stop running over white
Speaker 1: women and getting away with murder in Malibu, because that's
Speaker 1: exactly what she did. Then she went and got some
Speaker 1: titties to supersede it. I just want to get my
Speaker 1: hats off to Chris Jenner, got you the biggest pimp
Speaker 1: money could buy. Good God? Who wing flame is talking
Speaker 1: about the California guber nottorial hopeful? Uh? Caitlyn Jenner. She
Speaker 1: was asked yesterday or earlier this week her thoughts on athletes,
Speaker 1: and she weighed in on her first DA issue. She
Speaker 1: said that, um, she doesn't support trans girls born as
Speaker 1: boys participating in all female school sports. She believes that
Speaker 1: if you are if you are playing sports, you need
Speaker 1: to play in the sport of which you were biologically born.
Speaker 1: I mean, and we talked about that too, And honestly,
Speaker 1: I was surprised to hear Caitlyn Jenner's response because I
Speaker 1: was like, I do agree with you, because we've had
Speaker 1: that conversation. Okay, we we he acknowledged that. He definitely
Speaker 1: acknowledged that. But I'm saying, though, I'm surprised that that
Speaker 1: was her response. So we'll give her there to what
Speaker 1: they want her to be. She's going to say, I
Speaker 1: also think too, and in many ways this is just me.
Speaker 1: Of course, I almost think it's almost selfish to Lauren.
Speaker 1: Of course you can say that now you are the
Speaker 1: most decorated athlete ever you are. You literally you won,
Speaker 1: you literally won the Olympics in the sport that in
Speaker 1: the competition that requires you to be an athlete in
Speaker 1: every area, swimming, running, jumping, you mastered it. So of
Speaker 1: course now you can come back and say, you know what,
Speaker 1: I think you should be able to Ruth, and she
Speaker 1: repeated against me, and so that's I think. I don't
Speaker 1: think but I don't think we should make that comparison
Speaker 1: because we also have to look at and I'm not
Speaker 1: defending Caitlyn jenn I'm just saying in general, I don't
Speaker 1: think it's fairy and I sent because I think SHAWNA.
Speaker 1: Brooks came out and said something about that too. I
Speaker 1: don't think that it's fair to compare what Caitlin Jenner
Speaker 1: did previously because being transgender during those times was very
Speaker 1: different to what's happening now. So I don't think that
Speaker 1: it's fair to compare what Bruce Jenner did in his
Speaker 1: athletic accomplishments to say like, oh, he needs to be
Speaker 1: stripped of this and you know you should have been.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't necessarily agree with that, but I
Speaker 1: don't think that it's really and I don't think it's
Speaker 1: fair to say to that. Isn't it convenient for you
Speaker 1: to say this? Now? I don't agree with that because
Speaker 1: times were different than honestly, and you know, maybe Bruce
Speaker 1: wasn't ready to live in history. I guess I want
Speaker 1: I guess that's not my Let me be clear, because
Speaker 1: now I feel like I'm Tim Scott. What I want
Speaker 1: to be clear is it's easy now for you having one.
Speaker 1: You've already done it, you've gotten the crown, you've been
Speaker 1: the most, you're the most accomplished in that arena period.
Speaker 1: So you don't have to win again. You don't even
Speaker 1: need to compete again. You have no desire to because
Speaker 1: I've already wanted. Now it's easy to block other people
Speaker 1: who may want to. I have to believe that they
Speaker 1: are trans girls who would like to participate in sports,
Speaker 1: And it's easy for someone who's already won to come
Speaker 1: out and say, oh no, you don't get to participate. Well,
Speaker 1: you've already hello. Well, even with that, if they if
Speaker 1: trans girls or trans me and want to uh want
Speaker 1: to compete, then they need to create a lane for
Speaker 1: trans me and trans women. It is not separate. We
Speaker 1: want to talk a body quality, just have them still
Speaker 1: compete in the boys sports. Honestly, I mean, I think
Speaker 1: boxing is honestly a great model because there has been
Speaker 1: several trans boxers that have come out and there's still
Speaker 1: there's they're trans women, but they're still fighting men though,
Speaker 1: so that way it's an equal playing field. Because I
Speaker 1: don't think that it's fair to say, oh, we need
Speaker 1: to put them in a special lane because we got
Speaker 1: to treat them with their special people. It's not we
Speaker 1: don't need to make a special Olympics for them. We
Speaker 1: already have that for people if they want to put
Speaker 1: them in. What I'm saying is I think that we
Speaker 1: can use boxing as a model, and is that if
Speaker 1: we have trans women that we don't want to compete,
Speaker 1: let them still compete with men. That's the only way
Speaker 1: that we're going to bring in the equality to this
Speaker 1: this that's I just think that they should create a
Speaker 1: lane for because then it would just appease everybody. You know.
Speaker 1: I think people will calm down so they won't say
Speaker 1: that it's not fair to the women, or that it's
Speaker 1: not fair to me. And because they created the black
Speaker 1: they don't have a Black Olympics, but they've created so
Speaker 1: many different things when we don't have When we didn't
Speaker 1: have anything, they created the b ET Awards. We didn't
Speaker 1: have award. We create everything for everything. They have the
Speaker 1: Latino Awards, they have their their Latino Musical Board. So
Speaker 1: that's just created lane to be fair for transgender athletes.
Speaker 1: And I totally feel that. But I just, like I said,
Speaker 1: I'm being devil's advocate. The whole day. I could still
Speaker 1: see on the flip side somebody saying that that's not
Speaker 1: actually quality because you are still trying to Nick, don't
Speaker 1: add anymore to it. We're trying to move on. Jeez.
Speaker 1: Come on now, I wasn't talking about nobody's kid in particular. Ships,
Speaker 1: so calm it down for y'all. Said, I surely did.
Speaker 1: Your president said into a couple of years ago. Honey,
Speaker 1: he did the whole moving everything, and he still one.
Speaker 1: So if you want to be mad at me, it's
Speaker 1: only two people on here. He got seventy four million votes.
Speaker 1: Now who the most ignorant me of him? Thank you? Anyway,
Speaker 1: I did. I mean, we've got about ten minutes, so
Speaker 1: do we want to get into the voting rights? And
Speaker 1: just been on some you know, some good food for thought.
Speaker 1: My head, y'all can't see me. I'm right here, going out,
Speaker 1: going out, being taken up out Roman Texas, Florida. I'm
Speaker 1: doing Texas, Uh, Florida and Georgia state lawmakers continue to
Speaker 1: introduce new restrictive voting provisions and voter suppressive bills. Uh.
Speaker 1: They've begun to pop up and advance becoming law. So
Speaker 1: the problem is many of these things are different across
Speaker 1: different states, but they're all affecting disproportunately. Many voting rights
Speaker 1: advocates believe people of color and communities of color, And
Speaker 1: this is why I say, and like we said, we're
Speaker 1: not attacking anybody today at all. This is laugh and learn.
Speaker 1: This is an exchange of information, and we appreciate the
Speaker 1: differences of opinion. But it's this right here is why
Speaker 1: I say. When black people say my vote doesn't matter,
Speaker 1: that is the biggest lie somebody could ever tell you.
Speaker 1: Because if your votes did not matter, these legislatures and
Speaker 1: different state and local governments would not be trying to
Speaker 1: do everything in their power to suppress your vote. Okay,
Speaker 1: the GOP has made it clear that they don't care
Speaker 1: about people. They only care about their own party and
Speaker 1: what their own agenda is and tax cuts for them
Speaker 1: and making the rich even richer. So please understand that
Speaker 1: your need to exercise your right to vote is so vital,
Speaker 1: especially at this point in time. Are going to be
Speaker 1: such pivotal years for us, and it's going to determine
Speaker 1: the makeup of this country and what it's going to
Speaker 1: look like. So please remember to exercise your vote. It
Speaker 1: is so important. And with all of these laws that
Speaker 1: are being enacted and put into motion, please still figure
Speaker 1: out how you can go and vote. Please, please please.
Speaker 1: That's how I'll say, pay attention and laurence so quickly.
Speaker 1: They're doing them so quickly that people aren't having a
Speaker 1: time to really digest the information exactly. A lot of
Speaker 1: it goes back to what Alison mentioned earlier, which is
Speaker 1: knowing what's happening locally, because all of this mostly happens
Speaker 1: on the back end of redistricting and jurymandering districts. It
Speaker 1: is when you have states like Texas. Texas is growing
Speaker 1: and gaining seats, it is very possible that Texas will
Speaker 1: be a major player um in the next cycles. New
Speaker 1: York also just lost seats UM, so they're they're there
Speaker 1: are different things. Uh. Is because people are leaving states
Speaker 1: like New York and California because it's expensive, right uh
Speaker 1: And they're going to Texas, which is less expensive. Now
Speaker 1: they tend to move or Georgia. They move to places
Speaker 1: like Atlanta, but it's concentrated. So what what members who
Speaker 1: are trying to change up the laws do as they
Speaker 1: sit there and they say, you know what, we'll never
Speaker 1: be able to win Atlanta and that county. So we've
Speaker 1: got to read district so that we can pick up
Speaker 1: seats here, there and there. And they try to just
Speaker 1: patch work it together. But the thing is, though, and
Speaker 1: I don't I can't speak to Texas per se, but Atlanta,
Speaker 1: for instance, is what people don't realize. Atlanta encompasses like
Speaker 1: almost forty counties by itself. So people think of Atlanta
Speaker 1: is just this one city. That's not the situation. You
Speaker 1: have so many different counties. You've got the Cab, you've
Speaker 1: got Cob, you've got there's so many different counties that encompasses. Yes,
Speaker 1: so it's a little further. But yeah, but there's so
Speaker 1: many different counties. That's why I know what ye got.
Speaker 1: You was about almost two hours outside of Atlanta at
Speaker 1: that point. I stayed a little longer with that police
Speaker 1: I was supposed to. He wrote me a ticket and
Speaker 1: I gave him a bill. O Lord. But we're saying
Speaker 1: that to say, like so, I don't know if Texas
Speaker 1: is similar, but like I know there's, for instance, there's
Speaker 1: a place in Houston called sugar Land. There's different um
Speaker 1: counties in these southern states that are growing predominantly. It's US,
Speaker 1: it's black folks moving to these counties, and it's those
Speaker 1: areas that we're really seeing that the need for these
Speaker 1: voting rights bills according to you know, our local legislators
Speaker 1: and things like that, and that's where the gerrymandering is
Speaker 1: really occurring. So it's it's the red zoning. They're really
Speaker 1: strategically looking at, Okay, who's moving here, what are these demographics?
Speaker 1: And that's to also what I'll say is why I
Speaker 1: have an issue with the census. I know people say
Speaker 1: that we need to participate in the census and that
Speaker 1: it's important, but that's also another way for people to
Speaker 1: figure out how to red zone and redline who can
Speaker 1: vote where. That's how they that's how New York lost seats.
Speaker 1: People didn't so New York didn't have enough people to count,
Speaker 1: so they lost to at their seats because because people.
Speaker 1: I think it's a catch twenty two. I think that
Speaker 1: the minute you put that information out there, those who
Speaker 1: seek to do harm are going to find a way
Speaker 1: to use that information for their own benefit. Right um.
Speaker 1: And so three D one bills with restrictive PSI provisions
Speaker 1: in forty seven states. That's one hundred and eight more
Speaker 1: than the two hundred and fifty three restrictive bills tallied
Speaker 1: as of February. Increase in little more than a month.
Speaker 1: So just since March, there have been three hundred and
Speaker 1: sixty one bills to cut, curb, or restrict voting from
Speaker 1: the GOP. Let's be clear from please pay attention. They
Speaker 1: have changed voting rights in Georgia. Now they have done Florida.
Speaker 1: Hear me when I tell you that, I'm believing that
Speaker 1: Texas will be next, and then North Carolina. They are
Speaker 1: setting it up for two because they are not happy.
Speaker 1: I eat January to six, Thank you, Stacy Abrahams. Because
Speaker 1: I look at the positive of January six, I don't
Speaker 1: know what the hell they was doing in in in
Speaker 1: d C. Because I wasn't there. None of us was there.
Speaker 1: We were celebrating in Georgia. We weren't worried about what
Speaker 1: was going on in Washington, d C. Because the police
Speaker 1: wasn't worried about what was going on in Washington, d C.
Speaker 1: I eat, that's why none of the people who besides
Speaker 1: that one woman who was on pushing to get in
Speaker 1: and got killed, and the office other people officers right
Speaker 1: when everybody's police officers or law enforcement. Yeah, they weren't
Speaker 1: worried about what was going on. They was more concerned
Speaker 1: about they wanted to be outside in case they riot.
Speaker 1: On the decision of George Floyd. With the guilty guilty,
Speaker 1: guilty on Derek Shelton's a bitch ass building fences around
Speaker 1: people's houses who clearly committed murders, we got the focus
Speaker 1: on what's important for us, what y'are saying about this
Speaker 1: whole the election fraud and of what they're trying to
Speaker 1: do with it. Y'all got to make sure, and I'm
Speaker 1: talking to the voters, you have to make sure that
Speaker 1: your I d matches up with where you live currently.
Speaker 1: Everything needs to They're gonna find every loophole they can
Speaker 1: to cheat to try to make this food. Get back
Speaker 1: in the office in four But the prelimitas, we got
Speaker 1: to do our part. We gotta stop doing all this talking.
Speaker 1: All that. You can't give somebody some water, you can't
Speaker 1: give somebody a seat, That is irrelevant. Make sure you
Speaker 1: are registered to vote, because we want to complain about
Speaker 1: I can't get somebody water, But are you even registered
Speaker 1: to vote? To go to vote your damn self, because
Speaker 1: you want to go there and start some ship and
Speaker 1: say I'm gonna get this old ladies and water. But
Speaker 1: don't go up there just for that. Go up there
Speaker 1: because you are also going to vote. A lot of
Speaker 1: us do a lot of talking and then don't follow
Speaker 1: through with it. Make sure all your ducks are in
Speaker 1: a row, because I'm telling you, we cannot survive another
Speaker 1: four years of the nightmare that we just get through.
Speaker 1: We cannot as black people, as brown people, as poor people,
Speaker 1: because it's if you're not part of the one but
Speaker 1: center of the super rich and super wealthy, or they
Speaker 1: can't control you like they do. Tim Scott, were all
Speaker 1: gonna be screwed seriously, and they're mad about the color.
Speaker 1: If you ain't got no money, you are irrelevant to them.
Speaker 1: So Niggers, you ain't got no money, so you're gonna
Speaker 1: be irrelevant to them because you ain't inr real money,
Speaker 1: just nothing exactly. So I would I would let you
Speaker 1: pull the Tim Scott, I beat you. Okay, you just
Speaker 1: heard did you did you hit? You know? And I
Speaker 1: think it's real talk. As a veteran, I found what
Speaker 1: he said extremely disappointing, you know, because yeah, it's just
Speaker 1: one of those things where, um, I just I expected more.
Speaker 1: I wanted more from him. I had hope that there
Speaker 1: would be more from him. Seriously, absolutely, you your your
Speaker 1: son of the South. How do you not know the
Speaker 1: history and the legacy he's You watched the same trial
Speaker 1: of Derek Chauvin that I watched, Tim Scott. How do
Speaker 1: you not recognize that people are in pain? And not
Speaker 1: even that he would stopped by the police in d
Speaker 1: C and had the show he's that because they did
Speaker 1: not know who he was. He could have been a
Speaker 1: victim just because he had his badgement and he real
Speaker 1: black and funny, look, it ain't like you black and
Speaker 1: good looking, he black and hard? How hard is it?
Speaker 1: And I'm not even trying I don't want to sound sartchastic.
Speaker 1: How hard is it to have empathy for people? And
Speaker 1: that's what I don't understand. How you could just dismiss No,
Speaker 1: there's no reason, and and we're moving on to the
Speaker 1: next thing. What what I'm gonna say this, that's that's
Speaker 1: part of the that's part of the game. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say that because it's almost like we're expected to try
Speaker 1: and figure out how to rationalize things and how to
Speaker 1: make things make sense. That's a part of the crazy
Speaker 1: merry go round on in this whole I'm gonna call
Speaker 1: it a merry go around of systemic racism. That's what
Speaker 1: it is. We're constantly trying to figure out and rationalize, Well,
Speaker 1: why did this happen? And why did you do that?
Speaker 1: Stop doing that. It doesn't make sense. And it's not
Speaker 1: to make sense because it doesn't make sense. So he
Speaker 1: didn't mean to do that. I must have tripped and
Speaker 1: fell into that whip. He didn't mean to actually do it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know exactly. It's not even worth going on anymore.
Speaker 1: It's it's really not because it's it's never gonna make sense.
Speaker 1: It's not, I bet you. And Tim Scott looks in
Speaker 1: the mirror, the mirror turns around because he's ugly. No,
Speaker 1: because of the reflection. There is nothing there that that's
Speaker 1: not even a shell of a man. There that is
Speaker 1: an empty soul. And I'm sorry to say that, you know,
Speaker 1: I had to when he was speaking as a black person,
Speaker 1: because that's who I am. I'm a black person in
Speaker 1: this country. I was mortified. I was humiliated. Let me
Speaker 1: and I usually never take on somebody else's you know
Speaker 1: how you but because I'm black in this in this
Speaker 1: climate in America, it consumed me to anger too. When
Speaker 1: as soon as he said that this American is not
Speaker 1: a racist country, I turned the TV off, but I
Speaker 1: was so angry. Six minutes later, I turned the TV
Speaker 1: back on because I just needed to hear the foolishness
Speaker 1: coming out of this child's mouth, like you've got to
Speaker 1: be shooting me. You live right here where I live.
Speaker 1: You it has happened to you. He was stopped by
Speaker 1: the police in DC. That could have been a very
Speaker 1: different scenario because there was nothing on his forehead that
Speaker 1: said that he was a senator. He was just a
Speaker 1: fucking black man to them to the police office. If
Speaker 1: he would have got the right officers, that was having
Speaker 1: the right wrong day. Because remember that's what the one
Speaker 1: guy said, Oh he was having a bed. Tim Scott
Speaker 1: could have been murdered and killed. Would he still have
Speaker 1: spoken like that his son, if he ever had a
Speaker 1: son with a black person, his son, that that would
Speaker 1: look black. Because even if you're a person or something,
Speaker 1: a white person, if if the wife is white, that
Speaker 1: son coming out black, that nigga's navy purple, that nigga
Speaker 1: double black, that son coming out black or daughter coming
Speaker 1: out black. What if your kids get pulled up the
Speaker 1: cost of about police But and they don't ask to
Speaker 1: say that, they see that your daughter's name is Serena
Speaker 1: Scott or John Scott. They just see a black kid
Speaker 1: and they just opened up and side shooting nigga with
Speaker 1: your man and your tennasy and your verbage be the same.
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. But she is I don't even know that
Speaker 1: to be true. Let me stop that. Because he is
Speaker 1: so brainwashed and they got him so used and put
Speaker 1: in a position of foolishness that he might say, oh
Speaker 1: if my son or my kid must have did something bad, nigga,
Speaker 1: fuck you and generations of niggas just like you, and
Speaker 1: I see it called me because I'm ready for that ass.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I just as as just you know, I
Speaker 1: think that, um, we've also seen in the last few months,
Speaker 1: if we had any doubts that I don't even know
Speaker 1: that him having senator across his forehead would have been enough.
Speaker 1: We saw what they did to the military, uh, the
Speaker 1: guy in uniform, um, and so nothing seems to be
Speaker 1: enough anymore, or has ever been enough. Maybe we thought, well,
Speaker 1: if I, if I speak and I do this the
Speaker 1: right way, that I can avoid this situation. I don't
Speaker 1: know that that's true in any situation anymore. I think
Speaker 1: that there has to be a complete overhaul. And the
Speaker 1: way that we do policing as we do it today
Speaker 1: is there. There's there's just a problem period. Woman and
Speaker 1: I know what. We don't want to go down this
Speaker 1: dark hole. But when they joked about grabbing that woman,
Speaker 1: I told you because that woman was bigger black woman.
Speaker 1: And I immediately every time I seed this, and it
Speaker 1: just in because immediately thought about my own mother and
Speaker 1: woman's just right listening to him music. You know how
Speaker 1: we do sitting there listen to her gospel what I
Speaker 1: don't know what she was listen whatever the point you
Speaker 1: get lost in your music. And so she's like, well,
Speaker 1: what did I do that? You're pulling around you? And
Speaker 1: they just that woman ain't doing nothing to know. I
Speaker 1: could see me that woman was not she wasn't fighting them.
Speaker 1: I don't get it. I don't get why everything has
Speaker 1: to turn out this way, and it's it's just it's
Speaker 1: just frustrating. It's just frustrating. Well, I will say this
Speaker 1: on the policing front, throw New Jersey did just put
Speaker 1: in a new bill that's saying that police officers are
Speaker 1: no longer going to get mental distress calls. So I
Speaker 1: will acknowledge that. I think that that is a good
Speaker 1: first step. And that's at least I saw the stat
Speaker 1: of four mental health calls come we're coming into the
Speaker 1: police department per week, So all of those calls are
Speaker 1: not going to be diverted to social workers and health
Speaker 1: professionals police skilled in the exactly. So police and at
Speaker 1: least New Jersey are no longer going to get those
Speaker 1: mental health distress calls. So hopefully that brings down some
Speaker 1: of these just police involved shooting from what you said
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago when you said that you
Speaker 1: called the fire department first, some fire happened, was just
Speaker 1: put on leave or fired. I just read this on
Speaker 1: the internet before we started laugh because he was telling
Speaker 1: his responders who worked on him in the fight department
Speaker 1: not to respond to the calls that were coming in
Speaker 1: in black communities, in black neighborhoods. Was he white, of
Speaker 1: course he was. Okay, I'm glad he got fired. So
Speaker 1: he was fired to put on le or some So. UM,
Speaker 1: I know we're at our time, so I'll just close
Speaker 1: out with this because I do want to address something
Speaker 1: that one of the flamets put in there. Um. I
Speaker 1: did repost something on my social media. They brought it
Speaker 1: up saying what are my thoughts on Dr Umar? So
Speaker 1: I have a friend and I've sent it to both
Speaker 1: of you guys. I think she does parking lot pimping.
Speaker 1: On Friday's her analyst at Lane Easy. If you guys
