WEBVTT - Conversations Matter

0:00:11.840 --> 0:00:14.560
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, peeps, and welcome to bookay f Daily with

0:00:14.760 --> 0:00:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Meet your Girl Danielle Moody COVID free recording from the

0:00:19.480 --> 0:00:23.480
<v Speaker 1>Home Bunker. Folks, you know, I want to start up

0:00:23.480 --> 0:00:30.960
<v Speaker 1>today with a couple of thoughts and reflections on the news,

0:00:30.960 --> 0:00:35.479
<v Speaker 1>on the fact that even with the twenty first anniversary

0:00:36.000 --> 0:00:42.240
<v Speaker 1>of nine to eleven, which we acknowledged over the weekend,

0:00:43.200 --> 0:00:47.800
<v Speaker 1>even with that, the media could not pull its fucking

0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:54.080
<v Speaker 1>attention away from coverage of the United Kingdom and the

0:00:54.200 --> 0:01:01.680
<v Speaker 1>death of Queen Elizabeth. I have no idea where this

0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:08.280
<v Speaker 1>motherfucking fascination and obsession with the wall to wall coverage

0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:14.280
<v Speaker 1>is coming from. I've even heard from anchors themselves that

0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:20.559
<v Speaker 1>are over doing the wall to wall coverage of this.

0:01:20.560 --> 0:01:24.920
<v Speaker 1>This is not Britain, we are not part of the Commonwealth.

0:01:25.000 --> 0:01:29.760
<v Speaker 1>As a matter of fact, I believe that America developed

0:01:29.920 --> 0:01:36.440
<v Speaker 1>because of its desire to be rid of the fucking monarchy.

0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:43.160
<v Speaker 1>So the obsession makes no fucking sense, particularly when we

0:01:43.240 --> 0:01:49.600
<v Speaker 1>have been hearing from African nations, Caribbean nations, from those

0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:54.680
<v Speaker 1>black indigenous people of color who had to endure under

0:01:54.720 --> 0:01:59.000
<v Speaker 1>the seventy year rain of Queen Elizabeth, had to endure

0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>British colonization and brutality for centuries, many of which are

0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:14.280
<v Speaker 1>still not independent today. And so, you know, it would

0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:19.400
<v Speaker 1>be one thing if we were using this opportunity to

0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:24.720
<v Speaker 1>shed a light onto the lack of modernization as it

0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:30.959
<v Speaker 1>pertains to our understanding of royalty by virtue of some

0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:36.240
<v Speaker 1>motherfucking bloodline that is filled with incest, rape and all

0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:40.079
<v Speaker 1>of these things, that somehow you ascend to greatness better

0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 1>than any working person. Right. I just you know, and

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:49.600
<v Speaker 1>I say this because my family, right, as many of

0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:53.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, is Jamaican. My family came to the United

0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:59.240
<v Speaker 1>States in nineteen seventy and you know, Jamaica, as many

0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:03.840
<v Speaker 1>Caribbean islands are, are part of the fucking British Commonwealth.

0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:10.000
<v Speaker 1>So they grew up indoctrinated and loving the Queen. And

0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:12.520
<v Speaker 1>you hear are these people talk about, you know, this

0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:18.040
<v Speaker 1>benevolent cream Queen. Then you hear others who are making

0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:22.200
<v Speaker 1>it very clear, under no uncertain terms, that they are

0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:24.840
<v Speaker 1>not interesting. They are not in a place of mourning

0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:28.720
<v Speaker 1>right where many are actually in a place of celebration.

0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:31.200
<v Speaker 1>And I will say this that you know, I posted

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:33.240
<v Speaker 1>a couple of videos to TikTok and if you're not

0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:36.680
<v Speaker 1>following me there, you should, Danielle Moody Underscore because that

0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:41.960
<v Speaker 1>is probably my livest social media platform where I really

0:03:42.000 --> 0:03:45.680
<v Speaker 1>do just pop all the way off. And you know,

0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:51.440
<v Speaker 1>I did a video about you know, the fact that

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:54.840
<v Speaker 1>you don't get to and by you, I mean white

0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:59.680
<v Speaker 1>mainstream media and I mean the white world globally this

0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 1>get to dictate to black indigenous people of color how

0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 1>they should mourn their oppressor. And I had many a

0:04:10.800 --> 0:04:14.880
<v Speaker 1>people chime in, some that are from Britain or at

0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:19.120
<v Speaker 1>least claim to be, and saying that I don't know

0:04:19.200 --> 0:04:24.240
<v Speaker 1>anything about history, that you know that the Queen had

0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:27.640
<v Speaker 1>no power, She's just a figurehead. And I want to

0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:33.840
<v Speaker 1>say to those people, google me, bitch, because if you

0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:38.520
<v Speaker 1>don't think that I understand public relations, that I don't

0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:43.000
<v Speaker 1>understand the power of figureheads and the power of words,

0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:48.200
<v Speaker 1>then clearly you know nothing about me, my work or

0:04:48.240 --> 0:04:53.880
<v Speaker 1>my platform. I will also say that there is power

0:04:54.880 --> 0:05:01.800
<v Speaker 1>that figureheads absolutely do have. For instance, the royal family

0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:11.080
<v Speaker 1>had an opportunity when Prince Harry married Meghan Markle, the

0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:19.800
<v Speaker 1>biracial divorce actress whom he married and then stood by

0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:27.120
<v Speaker 1>for four years while she was verbally abused by the

0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:34.400
<v Speaker 1>British media when asked when she asked for help because

0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:39.839
<v Speaker 1>she started having suicidal ideations, not under the influence of anything,

0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:44.960
<v Speaker 1>just you know, having to see your name drag through

0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>the mud every fucking day, relentlessly, and you start to

0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:56.559
<v Speaker 1>absorb that. No matter if you choose to turn off

0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 1>social media, if you choose to turn off the TV,

0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:03.480
<v Speaker 1>that shit still seeps in. I want people to think

0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:08.640
<v Speaker 1>about your own social media platforms and that one time

0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:12.880
<v Speaker 1>that you tweeted something or posted something that a large

0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:15.400
<v Speaker 1>group of people disagreed with. It could have been thirty,

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:17.920
<v Speaker 1>it could have been three hundred, it could have been

0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:22.680
<v Speaker 1>three thousand, right, And I want you to think about

0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:26.440
<v Speaker 1>how you felt on that day and the days following that.

0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>Now I want you to multiply that by a billion

0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:36.160
<v Speaker 1>and see how you would be able to continue to

0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:39.440
<v Speaker 1>lift your head up, stand up straight, and not allow

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:45.400
<v Speaker 1>those words to seep into your being. And they had

0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:52.520
<v Speaker 1>an opportunity to signal solidarity, to link arms with their

0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:57.640
<v Speaker 1>newest member and say we don't tolerate racism, that while

0:06:58.200 --> 0:07:03.800
<v Speaker 1>our own monarch was founded on brutality, was founded on

0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 1>the slave trade right, that we are taking a stand

0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:15.000
<v Speaker 1>right now as a United Royal family that this type

0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:21.560
<v Speaker 1>of insidious, disgusting and vile treatment will not be tolerated.

0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Not only that, but we're going to dedicate our work

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:32.600
<v Speaker 1>moving forward right to decolonization, to anti racist work that

0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:35.600
<v Speaker 1>we're maybe going to use the money that we've stolen

0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:42.600
<v Speaker 1>for generations and we're going to start talking about and

0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:52.280
<v Speaker 1>coming up with plans alongside Parliament about redistribution. Conversations matter,

0:07:53.000 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 1>particularly when they are being articulated from the quote unquote Crown.

0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 1>They show not to they chose to sit silent, and

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:12.080
<v Speaker 1>so you know when I see this fucking coverage and

0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:18.520
<v Speaker 1>again missed opportunity, as often mainstream media has a missed

0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:28.160
<v Speaker 1>opportunity in using this time to talk about genocide, to

0:08:28.320 --> 0:08:35.440
<v Speaker 1>talk about apartheide, to talk about sovereignty, to talk about

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:40.600
<v Speaker 1>the power of independence and independent voices and nations. But

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:46.960
<v Speaker 1>alas that would you know, spark more conversation and actually

0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:53.680
<v Speaker 1>signal that newsrooms care and we know that that is

0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:55.960
<v Speaker 1>not the case. How do we know because you look

0:08:56.040 --> 0:08:58.680
<v Speaker 1>no further than oh, I don't know the fact that

0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:01.920
<v Speaker 1>they helped Donald Trump become president of the United States,

0:09:01.960 --> 0:09:06.200
<v Speaker 1>that instead of asking hard questions to Donald Trump and

0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 1>to his administration for their lives, for their thievery, for

0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:12.880
<v Speaker 1>all of the ways in which they broke the law

0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:15.920
<v Speaker 1>or assisted Donald Trump and breaking the law. Instead, they

0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:18.800
<v Speaker 1>opened up their doors and allowed those people from the

0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Trump administration to get nice, plush, cushy jobs in media

0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:28.319
<v Speaker 1>so that they could continue their bullshit. This is why

0:09:28.360 --> 0:09:30.040
<v Speaker 1>I have to say to folks. You know, I've had

0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:37.240
<v Speaker 1>my television off for the last week, right, I've just

0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:40.160
<v Speaker 1>been reading the news and listening to the news because

0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:44.240
<v Speaker 1>I can't watch it because what we're seeing isn't news.

0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:49.720
<v Speaker 1>You would think that all problems have been solved, that

0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:55.679
<v Speaker 1>Mississippi has a million civil engineers working on the restoration

0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:58.680
<v Speaker 1>of their water system. You would think that billions and

0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:01.840
<v Speaker 1>billions and billions of doll worth of aid have been

0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:05.040
<v Speaker 1>given to Pakistan so that they can rebuild a third

0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:08.000
<v Speaker 1>of their country which is now destroyed. You would think

0:10:08.240 --> 0:10:12.080
<v Speaker 1>that climate change has been tackled. You would think that

0:10:12.400 --> 0:10:16.120
<v Speaker 1>racism in policing had been tackled. You would think that

0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:18.760
<v Speaker 1>all of these things were done. If you watched the

0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:21.920
<v Speaker 1>news and what they were covering, and to go back

0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:25.400
<v Speaker 1>to my earlier point, you would think that one of

0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:32.640
<v Speaker 1>the most devastating days since Pearl Harbor in these United

0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:38.520
<v Speaker 1>States would be worthy of all day coverage, of a

0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:43.280
<v Speaker 1>week's worth of reflection leading up and leading after. You

0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:46.880
<v Speaker 1>would think that, But no, it was a blip on

0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:50.720
<v Speaker 1>the screen. It's so funny to me that we consistently

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:54.400
<v Speaker 1>have these hashtags that say hashtag never forget. As it

0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:59.240
<v Speaker 1>pertains to the over three thousand people that were murdered

0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:06.160
<v Speaker 1>on nine Oven right, never forget. We barely have time

0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:11.000
<v Speaker 1>to provide you with a full segment never forget. But

0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:15.079
<v Speaker 1>mind you, in comparison, at the height of COVID, we

0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:19.440
<v Speaker 1>were losing three thousand plus people a day, and we

0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:23.640
<v Speaker 1>don't even talk about the ripple effecting consequences to that.

0:11:28.120 --> 0:11:39.440
<v Speaker 1>It is disgusting, It is ghastly. It is outrageous the

0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:43.400
<v Speaker 1>way that mainstream media operates, and I continue to say that,

0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:54.119
<v Speaker 1>you know, I wish that there were more public outlets

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:59.280
<v Speaker 1>for media outside of MPR and outside of PBS. I

0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:02.560
<v Speaker 1>wish that we could actually rely on the media to

0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:05.400
<v Speaker 1>do what it was intended to do, which was to

0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:10.040
<v Speaker 1>educate the public instead of make more money for CEOs

0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:16.160
<v Speaker 1>and shareholders instead of their bullshit around both sides, that

0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:19.760
<v Speaker 1>they would recognize how powerful their jobs are. As the

0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:22.920
<v Speaker 1>Fourth Estate, which I wrote for media a couple of

0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:29.720
<v Speaker 1>weeks ago, the fourth Estate is crumbling. It is absurd

0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:34.679
<v Speaker 1>to me that we're in this place, and even again

0:12:37.080 --> 0:12:39.840
<v Speaker 1>thinking about the fact that mid term elections are coming

0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:46.760
<v Speaker 1>up in fifty six days, the most consequential midterm elections

0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:53.120
<v Speaker 1>of the modern error. And I say that because even

0:12:53.200 --> 0:12:58.120
<v Speaker 1>though the polling is showing that Democrats are gaining ground,

0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:02.160
<v Speaker 1>most recently, Joe Biden's poll numbers apparently in a recent

0:13:02.240 --> 0:13:06.920
<v Speaker 1>poll jumped six percent. He's now at forty nine percent

0:13:07.080 --> 0:13:11.160
<v Speaker 1>approval rating because of the fucking bang up job the

0:13:11.240 --> 0:13:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Biden administration did this summer. Because they were able to

0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:19.320
<v Speaker 1>walk and chew gum at the same time, they were

0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:25.120
<v Speaker 1>able to pass consequential legislation and begin to go after

0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump, which we will get to in a minute.

0:13:31.160 --> 0:13:34.559
<v Speaker 1>But the way that the media covers the Biden administration

0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:39.800
<v Speaker 1>is not at all on par with the fucking fluff

0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:44.120
<v Speaker 1>jobs and consistent motherfucking coverage that they gave Donald Trump

0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:48.920
<v Speaker 1>over four years. Oh, let us not tell the truth

0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:55.520
<v Speaker 1>about the viciousness of that administration, about the racism embedded

0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:59.600
<v Speaker 1>in that administration. Oh for fear that it will look

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:05.360
<v Speaker 1>like we're opinionators, bitch, That is the truth. And if

0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:11.600
<v Speaker 1>you don't know the difference between opinionating and providing people

0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:15.880
<v Speaker 1>with factual information that actually does affect their day to

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:23.200
<v Speaker 1>day lives, that actually would affect how people interact with

0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:34.120
<v Speaker 1>and participate with their government. You've had Joe Biden give

0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:39.960
<v Speaker 1>an enormous speech, probably one of his most important speeches,

0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:46.040
<v Speaker 1>about the soul of this nation, about quote unquote maga Republicans, which,

0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:48.960
<v Speaker 1>by the way, the only issue that I had with

0:14:49.000 --> 0:14:52.280
<v Speaker 1>that speech was the distinction that he wanted to make

0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:57.360
<v Speaker 1>between maga Republicans and the entirety of the Republican Party.

0:14:58.200 --> 0:15:01.800
<v Speaker 1>They are one and the same. There is no lyne

0:15:01.840 --> 0:15:04.280
<v Speaker 1>to be drawn with the Republicans. You can work with

0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:10.120
<v Speaker 1>no if you support Donald Trump, if you continue to

0:15:10.160 --> 0:15:14.560
<v Speaker 1>support Donald Trump, if you support fascism and authoritarianism, and

0:15:14.640 --> 0:15:19.080
<v Speaker 1>you're still running candidates who are election deniers, then you

0:15:19.120 --> 0:15:26.520
<v Speaker 1>are a munga Republican. Done. Do you know that that

0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:31.880
<v Speaker 1>speech was not covered by mainstream media? But do you

0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:36.520
<v Speaker 1>know whose speech that they did cover in its entirety?

0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:42.480
<v Speaker 1>King Charles the fucking third, What the fuck does that

0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:48.280
<v Speaker 1>speech have to do with America? Not a goddamn thing,

0:15:49.640 --> 0:15:52.560
<v Speaker 1>But all of network television made sure that that was

0:15:52.640 --> 0:15:57.400
<v Speaker 1>broadcast far and wide. Our own president, however, talking about

0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:00.880
<v Speaker 1>domestic terrorism and what we are face sing right now,

0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:07.360
<v Speaker 1>that ship was optional. So who do you think that

0:16:07.520 --> 0:16:10.720
<v Speaker 1>media is in cahoots with? It's sure as fuck? Is

0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:13.800
<v Speaker 1>it the quote unquote liberal media? Which are all the

0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:19.560
<v Speaker 1>tears that Republicans like to cry? Oh my god, they

0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:22.640
<v Speaker 1>don't treat us fairly because they ask us questions about

0:16:22.680 --> 0:16:25.400
<v Speaker 1>all of the illegal criminal activity that we're up to.

0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:13.359
<v Speaker 1>Let me switch gears to talk about Donald Trump, So judge.

0:18:13.359 --> 0:18:20.119
<v Speaker 1>A lean cannon who is unqualified for her job was

0:18:20.440 --> 0:18:24.680
<v Speaker 1>jammed through and seeded by Mitch McConnell after the election

0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:32.160
<v Speaker 1>to her lifetime federal appointment for good reason, I'm sure,

0:18:32.280 --> 0:18:37.800
<v Speaker 1>because she is the one woman fucking obstacle between the

0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:43.159
<v Speaker 1>Department of Justice and their investigation into the fact that

0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump held classified information that is not his own

0:18:49.760 --> 0:18:54.320
<v Speaker 1>personal fucking information to have that he and his team

0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:58.680
<v Speaker 1>of lawyers lied about having that information. Then it turns

0:18:58.720 --> 0:19:02.439
<v Speaker 1>out that it wasn't just any classified information, it was

0:19:03.280 --> 0:19:07.920
<v Speaker 1>nuclear assets that foreign nations are holding and their locations,

0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:13.680
<v Speaker 1>not to mention whatever else is inside of there. Every

0:19:13.840 --> 0:19:22.080
<v Speaker 1>single legal mind of merit on both folks, both the

0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:26.840
<v Speaker 1>left and the right, are like, what the fuck is

0:19:26.840 --> 0:19:35.520
<v Speaker 1>this woman doing? This is about America's national security. This

0:19:35.640 --> 0:19:43.040
<v Speaker 1>is about our relationship, our continued relationship with our allies.

0:19:45.440 --> 0:19:51.119
<v Speaker 1>Who is going to be providing America with pertinent critical

0:19:51.160 --> 0:19:53.720
<v Speaker 1>information that we need in order to quote unquote keep

0:19:53.760 --> 0:19:58.960
<v Speaker 1>the world safe if we don't mind our own documents,

0:20:01.160 --> 0:20:05.840
<v Speaker 1>who's gonna do that? But this whole will let the

0:20:05.920 --> 0:20:10.800
<v Speaker 1>special Master review signals to the country that you don't

0:20:11.160 --> 0:20:15.919
<v Speaker 1>you don't trust the Department of Justice, right, oh, because

0:20:16.040 --> 0:20:20.560
<v Speaker 1>we don't trust you to review these documents that are

0:20:20.600 --> 0:20:24.720
<v Speaker 1>actually a property of the United States. So we're going

0:20:24.800 --> 0:20:28.080
<v Speaker 1>to bring in a special Master to then slow down

0:20:28.480 --> 0:20:34.520
<v Speaker 1>this investigation for how many months? And I'm just curious. Again.

0:20:35.720 --> 0:20:41.520
<v Speaker 1>We know that Judge I A Leen Eileen, I don't

0:20:41.520 --> 0:20:49.000
<v Speaker 1>give a fuck. Cannon doesn't deserve her job, is unqualified

0:20:49.080 --> 0:20:53.199
<v Speaker 1>for her job, shouldn't be in this position. We know

0:20:53.280 --> 0:20:55.640
<v Speaker 1>why she was put in this position. And we're all

0:20:55.680 --> 0:21:00.640
<v Speaker 1>just continuing to operate by the rules and laws that

0:21:01.080 --> 0:21:07.080
<v Speaker 1>Republicans and Donald Trump don't operate by. And I'm just confused.

0:21:08.320 --> 0:21:10.800
<v Speaker 1>If they're not going to follow the law, why the

0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:14.000
<v Speaker 1>fuck should the rest of us. There are people right

0:21:14.080 --> 0:21:19.080
<v Speaker 1>now who worked at the Department of Justice that had mishandling,

0:21:19.800 --> 0:21:23.560
<v Speaker 1>charged with mishandling of documents, that are serving five plus

0:21:23.680 --> 0:21:30.639
<v Speaker 1>years in federal prison for offenses less than what Donald

0:21:30.640 --> 0:21:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Trump is being investigated over. But where is Donald Trump today?

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:43.160
<v Speaker 1>Golfing in Virginia? You tell me why the fuck when

0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:47.160
<v Speaker 1>that piece of shit's plane touched down in the DC

0:21:47.359 --> 0:21:51.960
<v Speaker 1>metropolitan area. Why he wasn't picked up by the Department

0:21:51.960 --> 0:22:00.600
<v Speaker 1>of Justice. Why handcuffs still evade this motherfucker. We cannot

0:22:00.600 --> 0:22:07.000
<v Speaker 1>continue to tell Americans that no one is above the law.

0:22:07.840 --> 0:22:11.879
<v Speaker 1>And the mountain of evidence continue to grow against Donald

0:22:11.880 --> 0:22:16.160
<v Speaker 1>Trump and also his own lawyers who are lawyering up

0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:20.400
<v Speaker 1>because they know that if in front of a credible

0:22:20.520 --> 0:22:26.399
<v Speaker 1>fucking judge, they're in trouble. How is it not asked

0:22:26.440 --> 0:22:33.560
<v Speaker 1>that this person recused themselves. I would take a fucking

0:22:33.880 --> 0:22:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Bush appointed judge, even if you don't. You don't want

0:22:36.720 --> 0:22:40.720
<v Speaker 1>an Obama judge, great, fine, I'll take a Bush appointed judge,

0:22:40.760 --> 0:22:46.600
<v Speaker 1>any Bush appointed judge over the bullshit people that were

0:22:46.640 --> 0:22:49.520
<v Speaker 1>put on the courts by Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump.

0:22:54.720 --> 0:22:59.240
<v Speaker 1>Another story for you. All that house has me completely

0:22:59.240 --> 0:23:05.720
<v Speaker 1>fucking outdone. Chief Justice Roberts, according to article in Axios,

0:23:06.560 --> 0:23:12.240
<v Speaker 1>defends the Supreme Court's legitimacy ahead of its new term,

0:23:12.280 --> 0:23:21.920
<v Speaker 1>and in it he says this, the Court can face criticism,

0:23:21.960 --> 0:23:26.399
<v Speaker 1>but quote simply because people disagree with opinions is not

0:23:26.480 --> 0:23:30.800
<v Speaker 1>a basis for questioning the legitimacy of the Court. CNN

0:23:30.880 --> 0:23:40.480
<v Speaker 1>reports news flash for Justice John Roberts, it is not

0:23:41.480 --> 0:23:48.360
<v Speaker 1>because of your recent non legal opinions that you pushed

0:23:48.359 --> 0:23:58.320
<v Speaker 1>out from justices who swore that precedent was precedent. Is

0:23:58.359 --> 0:24:02.840
<v Speaker 1>the reason we don't believe in the legitimacy of the court.

0:24:04.400 --> 0:24:07.199
<v Speaker 1>Let me give you the reasons we don't believe in

0:24:07.200 --> 0:24:10.160
<v Speaker 1>the legitimacy of the Court outside of the fact that

0:24:10.200 --> 0:24:13.840
<v Speaker 1>you have a Supreme Court that has overturned fifty year

0:24:13.920 --> 0:24:17.320
<v Speaker 1>precedent and one hundred year precedent when we are talking

0:24:17.480 --> 0:24:23.920
<v Speaker 1>about state's ability to be able to regulate guns, right,

0:24:24.240 --> 0:24:28.320
<v Speaker 1>because it's okay to kick down abortion to the states

0:24:28.320 --> 0:24:31.679
<v Speaker 1>and let the states decide what a woman can and

0:24:31.720 --> 0:24:35.200
<v Speaker 1>cannot do with her body, but then on the same time,

0:24:35.320 --> 0:24:39.320
<v Speaker 1>flip that motherfucker coin and then you won't allow states

0:24:39.359 --> 0:24:43.000
<v Speaker 1>to decide who can and cannot have an assault fucking rifle.

0:24:44.080 --> 0:24:46.919
<v Speaker 1>I digress, But let me tell you the three fucking

0:24:47.000 --> 0:24:54.439
<v Speaker 1>reasons why your Court Justice John Roberts is illegitimate. Reason

0:24:54.600 --> 0:25:03.879
<v Speaker 1>Number one, Amy Covid Barrett was jammed through after Joe

0:25:03.960 --> 0:25:09.879
<v Speaker 1>Biden legitimately won the twenty twenty election, and in the

0:25:10.040 --> 0:25:15.840
<v Speaker 1>time that the election passed and inauguration came, Mitch McConnell

0:25:16.200 --> 0:25:21.320
<v Speaker 1>jammed through her placement on the bench in thirty fucking days.

0:25:22.920 --> 0:25:28.080
<v Speaker 1>Another person that literally has no business being on the

0:25:28.119 --> 0:25:31.520
<v Speaker 1>Supreme Court other than a document that she wrote for

0:25:31.560 --> 0:25:39.399
<v Speaker 1>the Federalist Society that Donald Trump liked. That's one. Number two.

0:25:40.560 --> 0:25:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Brett Kavanaugh, yet another illegitimate justice. The FBI received over

0:25:49.400 --> 0:25:56.879
<v Speaker 1>forty five hundred tips on that alleged sexual predator that

0:25:57.040 --> 0:26:01.040
<v Speaker 1>they then decided not to invest the gate, but instead

0:26:01.240 --> 0:26:06.119
<v Speaker 1>brought to the White House for Donald Trump to place

0:26:06.240 --> 0:26:15.400
<v Speaker 1>inside of a draw. That alleged fucking rapist doesn't belong

0:26:15.680 --> 0:26:24.240
<v Speaker 1>on the court either. That's two number three, Justice Clarence

0:26:24.320 --> 0:26:31.520
<v Speaker 1>Thomas and his fucking insurrectionist ass wife and their relationship

0:26:31.680 --> 0:26:36.399
<v Speaker 1>with John Eastman, who was the architect of the insurrection.

0:26:37.000 --> 0:26:40.480
<v Speaker 1>The fact that we know via email that Jenny Thomas

0:26:40.640 --> 0:26:45.120
<v Speaker 1>was trying to get electors in both Wisconsin and Arizona

0:26:45.240 --> 0:26:49.440
<v Speaker 1>thrown out, that she was on the hotline with Mark Meadows,

0:26:49.680 --> 0:26:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Trump's former chief of staff to get him to delegitimize

0:26:53.560 --> 0:26:59.400
<v Speaker 1>the election, and the fact that she is involved in

0:26:59.640 --> 0:27:06.760
<v Speaker 1>the tempted overthrow of our democracy. And the fact that oh,

0:27:06.800 --> 0:27:10.439
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, Clarence Thomas was the lone descent in

0:27:10.520 --> 0:27:15.720
<v Speaker 1>a decision to not open up Donald Trump's phone records

0:27:15.720 --> 0:27:20.199
<v Speaker 1>because he was afraid that Jenny's numbers would be revealed. Well,

0:27:20.240 --> 0:27:24.639
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't matter because these people are clearly above the law.

0:27:25.560 --> 0:27:29.840
<v Speaker 1>Jenny Thomas has only been asked if she's willing to

0:27:29.880 --> 0:27:34.480
<v Speaker 1>testify before the January sixth committee. She hasn't been hauled

0:27:34.560 --> 0:27:40.400
<v Speaker 1>in from motherfucking questioning. So Justice John Roberts, save me

0:27:40.800 --> 0:27:43.840
<v Speaker 1>and miss me with your bullshit about the fact that

0:27:43.880 --> 0:27:48.159
<v Speaker 1>we are only calling this Supreme Court illegitimate because of

0:27:48.160 --> 0:27:53.200
<v Speaker 1>its decisions. Yes, because of decisions being made by people

0:27:53.480 --> 0:27:56.240
<v Speaker 1>who shouldn't be on the fucking bench to begin with.

0:27:57.560 --> 0:28:01.399
<v Speaker 1>That's why. So just know that that is going to

0:28:01.520 --> 0:28:05.760
<v Speaker 1>be your legacy. But what do we care. We don't

0:28:05.760 --> 0:28:14.200
