1 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to bookay f Daily with 2 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: Meet your Girl Danielle Moody COVID free recording from the 3 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 1: Home Bunker. Folks, you know, I want to start up 4 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: today with a couple of thoughts and reflections on the news, 5 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: on the fact that even with the twenty first anniversary 6 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 1: of nine to eleven, which we acknowledged over the weekend, 7 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: even with that, the media could not pull its fucking 8 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: attention away from coverage of the United Kingdom and the 9 00:00:54,200 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 1: death of Queen Elizabeth. I have no idea where this 10 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: motherfucking fascination and obsession with the wall to wall coverage 11 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: is coming from. I've even heard from anchors themselves that 12 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:20,559 Speaker 1: are over doing the wall to wall coverage of this. 13 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: This is not Britain, we are not part of the Commonwealth. 14 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I believe that America developed 15 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: because of its desire to be rid of the fucking monarchy. 16 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: So the obsession makes no fucking sense, particularly when we 17 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: have been hearing from African nations, Caribbean nations, from those 18 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: black indigenous people of color who had to endure under 19 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: the seventy year rain of Queen Elizabeth, had to endure 20 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: British colonization and brutality for centuries, many of which are 21 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: still not independent today. And so, you know, it would 22 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: be one thing if we were using this opportunity to 23 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: shed a light onto the lack of modernization as it 24 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:30,959 Speaker 1: pertains to our understanding of royalty by virtue of some 25 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 1: motherfucking bloodline that is filled with incest, rape and all 26 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 1: of these things, that somehow you ascend to greatness better 27 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: than any working person. Right. I just you know, and 28 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: I say this because my family, right, as many of 29 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: you know, is Jamaican. My family came to the United 30 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: States in nineteen seventy and you know, Jamaica, as many 31 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: Caribbean islands are, are part of the fucking British Commonwealth. 32 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: So they grew up indoctrinated and loving the Queen. And 33 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: you hear are these people talk about, you know, this 34 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: benevolent cream Queen. Then you hear others who are making 35 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: it very clear, under no uncertain terms, that they are 36 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: not interesting. They are not in a place of mourning 37 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: right where many are actually in a place of celebration. 38 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: And I will say this that you know, I posted 39 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: a couple of videos to TikTok and if you're not 40 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: following me there, you should, Danielle Moody Underscore because that 41 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: is probably my livest social media platform where I really 42 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: do just pop all the way off. And you know, 43 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: I did a video about you know, the fact that 44 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: you don't get to and by you, I mean white 45 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: mainstream media and I mean the white world globally this 46 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: get to dictate to black indigenous people of color how 47 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: they should mourn their oppressor. And I had many a 48 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: people chime in, some that are from Britain or at 49 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: least claim to be, and saying that I don't know 50 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: anything about history, that you know that the Queen had 51 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: no power, She's just a figurehead. And I want to 52 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 1: say to those people, google me, bitch, because if you 53 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: don't think that I understand public relations, that I don't 54 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: understand the power of figureheads and the power of words, 55 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: then clearly you know nothing about me, my work or 56 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: my platform. I will also say that there is power 57 00:04:54,880 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: that figureheads absolutely do have. For instance, the royal family 58 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: had an opportunity when Prince Harry married Meghan Markle, the 59 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: biracial divorce actress whom he married and then stood by 60 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: for four years while she was verbally abused by the 61 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: British media when asked when she asked for help because 62 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 1: she started having suicidal ideations, not under the influence of anything, 63 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: just you know, having to see your name drag through 64 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: the mud every fucking day, relentlessly, and you start to 65 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,559 Speaker 1: absorb that. No matter if you choose to turn off 66 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: social media, if you choose to turn off the TV, 67 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: that shit still seeps in. I want people to think 68 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: about your own social media platforms and that one time 69 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: that you tweeted something or posted something that a large 70 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: group of people disagreed with. It could have been thirty, 71 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: it could have been three hundred, it could have been 72 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: three thousand, right, And I want you to think about 73 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: how you felt on that day and the days following that. 74 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: Now I want you to multiply that by a billion 75 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: and see how you would be able to continue to 76 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: lift your head up, stand up straight, and not allow 77 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: those words to seep into your being. And they had 78 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: an opportunity to signal solidarity, to link arms with their 79 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: newest member and say we don't tolerate racism, that while 80 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: our own monarch was founded on brutality, was founded on 81 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: the slave trade right, that we are taking a stand 82 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: right now as a United Royal family that this type 83 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: of insidious, disgusting and vile treatment will not be tolerated. 84 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: Not only that, but we're going to dedicate our work 85 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: moving forward right to decolonization, to anti racist work that 86 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: we're maybe going to use the money that we've stolen 87 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: for generations and we're going to start talking about and 88 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: coming up with plans alongside Parliament about redistribution. Conversations matter, 89 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: particularly when they are being articulated from the quote unquote Crown. 90 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: They show not to they chose to sit silent, and 91 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: so you know when I see this fucking coverage and 92 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: again missed opportunity, as often mainstream media has a missed 93 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: opportunity in using this time to talk about genocide, to 94 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 1: talk about apartheide, to talk about sovereignty, to talk about 95 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: the power of independence and independent voices and nations. But 96 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: alas that would you know, spark more conversation and actually 97 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 1: signal that newsrooms care and we know that that is 98 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: not the case. How do we know because you look 99 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: no further than oh, I don't know the fact that 100 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: they helped Donald Trump become president of the United States, 101 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: that instead of asking hard questions to Donald Trump and 102 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: to his administration for their lives, for their thievery, for 103 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: all of the ways in which they broke the law 104 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: or assisted Donald Trump and breaking the law. Instead, they 105 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: opened up their doors and allowed those people from the 106 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: Trump administration to get nice, plush, cushy jobs in media 107 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:28,319 Speaker 1: so that they could continue their bullshit. This is why 108 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: I have to say to folks. You know, I've had 109 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: my television off for the last week, right, I've just 110 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: been reading the news and listening to the news because 111 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: I can't watch it because what we're seeing isn't news. 112 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: You would think that all problems have been solved, that 113 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 1: Mississippi has a million civil engineers working on the restoration 114 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: of their water system. You would think that billions and 115 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 1: billions and billions of doll worth of aid have been 116 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: given to Pakistan so that they can rebuild a third 117 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: of their country which is now destroyed. You would think 118 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 1: that climate change has been tackled. You would think that 119 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: racism in policing had been tackled. You would think that 120 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: all of these things were done. If you watched the 121 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: news and what they were covering, and to go back 122 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: to my earlier point, you would think that one of 123 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: the most devastating days since Pearl Harbor in these United 124 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: States would be worthy of all day coverage, of a 125 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: week's worth of reflection leading up and leading after. You 126 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: would think that, But no, it was a blip on 127 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: the screen. It's so funny to me that we consistently 128 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: have these hashtags that say hashtag never forget. As it 129 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: pertains to the over three thousand people that were murdered 130 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: on nine Oven right, never forget. We barely have time 131 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: to provide you with a full segment never forget. But 132 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 1: mind you, in comparison, at the height of COVID, we 133 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: were losing three thousand plus people a day, and we 134 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: don't even talk about the ripple effecting consequences to that. 135 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: It is disgusting, It is ghastly. It is outrageous the 136 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 1: way that mainstream media operates, and I continue to say that, 137 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:54,119 Speaker 1: you know, I wish that there were more public outlets 138 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: for media outside of MPR and outside of PBS. I 139 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: wish that we could actually rely on the media to 140 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: do what it was intended to do, which was to 141 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: educate the public instead of make more money for CEOs 142 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: and shareholders instead of their bullshit around both sides, that 143 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: they would recognize how powerful their jobs are. As the 144 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: Fourth Estate, which I wrote for media a couple of 145 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: weeks ago, the fourth Estate is crumbling. It is absurd 146 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: to me that we're in this place, and even again 147 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: thinking about the fact that mid term elections are coming 148 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: up in fifty six days, the most consequential midterm elections 149 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: of the modern error. And I say that because even 150 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: though the polling is showing that Democrats are gaining ground, 151 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: most recently, Joe Biden's poll numbers apparently in a recent 152 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: poll jumped six percent. He's now at forty nine percent 153 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: approval rating because of the fucking bang up job the 154 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: Biden administration did this summer. Because they were able to 155 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 1: walk and chew gum at the same time, they were 156 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: able to pass consequential legislation and begin to go after 157 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, which we will get to in a minute. 158 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,559 Speaker 1: But the way that the media covers the Biden administration 159 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: is not at all on par with the fucking fluff 160 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: jobs and consistent motherfucking coverage that they gave Donald Trump 161 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: over four years. Oh, let us not tell the truth 162 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: about the viciousness of that administration, about the racism embedded 163 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: in that administration. Oh for fear that it will look 164 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: like we're opinionators, bitch, That is the truth. And if 165 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: you don't know the difference between opinionating and providing people 166 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: with factual information that actually does affect their day to 167 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: day lives, that actually would affect how people interact with 168 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: and participate with their government. You've had Joe Biden give 169 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: an enormous speech, probably one of his most important speeches, 170 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: about the soul of this nation, about quote unquote maga Republicans, which, 171 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: by the way, the only issue that I had with 172 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: that speech was the distinction that he wanted to make 173 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: between maga Republicans and the entirety of the Republican Party. 174 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: They are one and the same. There is no lyne 175 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: to be drawn with the Republicans. You can work with 176 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: no if you support Donald Trump, if you continue to 177 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: support Donald Trump, if you support fascism and authoritarianism, and 178 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: you're still running candidates who are election deniers, then you 179 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: are a munga Republican. Done. Do you know that that 180 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: speech was not covered by mainstream media? But do you 181 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: know whose speech that they did cover in its entirety? 182 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: King Charles the fucking third, What the fuck does that 183 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: speech have to do with America? Not a goddamn thing, 184 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: But all of network television made sure that that was 185 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: broadcast far and wide. Our own president, however, talking about 186 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: domestic terrorism and what we are face sing right now, 187 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: that ship was optional. So who do you think that 188 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: media is in cahoots with? It's sure as fuck? Is 189 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: it the quote unquote liberal media? Which are all the 190 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: tears that Republicans like to cry? Oh my god, they 191 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: don't treat us fairly because they ask us questions about 192 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: all of the illegal criminal activity that we're up to. 193 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: How dare they get a behind the scenes look at 194 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: Comedy Central's The Daily Show On Beyond the Scenes, an 195 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: original podcast from The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.

Then it turns 227 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,439 Speaker 1: out that it wasn't just any classified information, it was 228 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: nuclear assets that foreign nations are holding and their locations, 229 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: not to mention whatever else is inside of there. Every 230 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: single legal mind of merit on both folks, both the 231 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: left and the right, are like, what the fuck is 232 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: this woman doing? This is about America's national security. This 233 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 1: is about our relationship, our continued relationship with our allies. 234 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: Who is going to be providing America with pertinent critical 235 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: information that we need in order to quote unquote keep 236 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: the world safe if we don't mind our own documents, 237 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: who's gonna do that? But this whole will let the 238 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: special Master review signals to the country that you don't 239 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: you don't trust the Department of Justice, right, oh, because 240 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: we don't trust you to review these documents that are 241 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: actually a property of the United States. So we're going 242 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: to bring in a special Master to then slow down 243 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: this investigation for how many months? And I'm just curious. Again. 244 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: We know that Judge I A Leen Eileen, I don't 245 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: give a fuck. Cannon doesn't deserve her job, is unqualified 246 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,199 Speaker 1: for her job, shouldn't be in this position. We know 247 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 1: why she was put in this position. And we're all 248 00:20:55,680 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 1: just continuing to operate by the rules and laws that 249 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: Republicans and Donald Trump don't operate by. And I'm just confused. 250 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: If they're not going to follow the law, why the 251 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: fuck should the rest of us. There are people right 252 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: now who worked at the Department of Justice that had mishandling, 253 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: charged with mishandling of documents, that are serving five plus 254 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 1: years in federal prison for offenses less than what Donald 255 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 1: Trump is being investigated over. But where is Donald Trump today? 256 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 1: Golfing in Virginia? You tell me why the fuck when 257 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: that piece of shit's plane touched down in the DC 258 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: metropolitan area. Why he wasn't picked up by the Department 259 00:21:51,960 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: of Justice. Why handcuffs still evade this motherfucker. We cannot 260 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: continue to tell Americans that no one is above the law. 261 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 1: And the mountain of evidence continue to grow against Donald 262 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 1: Trump and also his own lawyers who are lawyering up 263 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 1: because they know that if in front of a credible 264 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 1: fucking judge, they're in trouble. How is it not asked 265 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: that this person recused themselves. I would take a fucking 266 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 1: Bush appointed judge, even if you don't. You don't want 267 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: an Obama judge, great, fine, I'll take a Bush appointed judge, 268 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: any Bush appointed judge over the bullshit people that were 269 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: put on the courts by Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump. 270 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: Another story for you. All that house has me completely 271 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: fucking outdone. Chief Justice Roberts, according to article in Axios, 272 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: defends the Supreme Court's legitimacy ahead of its new term, 273 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 1: and in it he says this, the Court can face criticism, 274 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 1: but quote simply because people disagree with opinions is not 275 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: a basis for questioning the legitimacy of the Court. CNN 276 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: reports news flash for Justice John Roberts, it is not 277 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 1: because of your recent non legal opinions that you pushed 278 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: out from justices who swore that precedent was precedent. Is 279 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: the reason we don't believe in the legitimacy of the court. 280 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,199 Speaker 1: Let me give you the reasons we don't believe in 281 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 1: the legitimacy of the Court outside of the fact that 282 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: you have a Supreme Court that has overturned fifty year 283 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: precedent and one hundred year precedent when we are talking 284 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 1: about state's ability to be able to regulate guns, right, 285 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: because it's okay to kick down abortion to the states 286 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,679 Speaker 1: and let the states decide what a woman can and 287 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 1: cannot do with her body, but then on the same time, 288 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: flip that motherfucker coin and then you won't allow states 289 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: to decide who can and cannot have an assault fucking rifle. 290 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,919 Speaker 1: I digress, But let me tell you the three fucking 291 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:54,439 Speaker 1: reasons why your Court Justice John Roberts is illegitimate. Reason 292 00:24:54,600 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: Number one, Amy Covid Barrett was jammed through after Joe 293 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: Biden legitimately won the twenty twenty election, and in the 294 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: time that the election passed and inauguration came, Mitch McConnell 295 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: jammed through her placement on the bench in thirty fucking days. 296 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: Another person that literally has no business being on the 297 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: Supreme Court other than a document that she wrote for 298 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:39,399 Speaker 1: the Federalist Society that Donald Trump liked. That's one. Number two. 299 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: Brett Kavanaugh, yet another illegitimate justice. The FBI received over 300 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: forty five hundred tips on that alleged sexual predator that 301 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: they then decided not to invest the gate, but instead 302 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 1: brought to the White House for Donald Trump to place 303 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 1: inside of a draw. That alleged fucking rapist doesn't belong 304 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: on the court either. That's two number three, Justice Clarence 305 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: Thomas and his fucking insurrectionist ass wife and their relationship 306 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 1: with John Eastman, who was the architect of the insurrection. 307 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: The fact that we know via email that Jenny Thomas 308 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:45,120 Speaker 1: was trying to get electors in both Wisconsin and Arizona 309 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: thrown out, that she was on the hotline with Mark Meadows, 310 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: Trump's former chief of staff to get him to delegitimize 311 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 1: the election, and the fact that she is involved in 312 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 1: the tempted overthrow of our democracy. And the fact that oh, 313 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,439 Speaker 1: I don't know, Clarence Thomas was the lone descent in 314 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: a decision to not open up Donald Trump's phone records 315 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:20,199 Speaker 1: because he was afraid that Jenny's numbers would be revealed. Well, 316 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter because these people are clearly above the law. 317 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: Jenny Thomas has only been asked if she's willing to 318 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: testify before the January sixth committee. She hasn't been hauled 319 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 1: in from motherfucking questioning. So Justice John Roberts, save me 320 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 1: and miss me with your bullshit about the fact that 321 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 1: we are only calling this Supreme Court illegitimate because of 322 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: its decisions. Yes, because of decisions being made by people 323 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: who shouldn't be on the fucking bench to begin with. 324 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,399 Speaker 1: That's why. So just know that that is going to 325 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: be your legacy. But what do we care. We don't 326 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: teach history in this country anyway. Folks.
