Folks. 3 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,919 Speaker 1: I'm going to start off today's show. It is Tuesday. 4 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 1: I took the weekend off because I was wrapped up 5 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 1: in WNBA history making. I am new to the WNBA 6 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:41,200 Speaker 1: as of probably a year or so ago. I've always 7 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: liked sports. Got into watching the game because of my girlfriend, 8 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,920 Speaker 1: who has been a fan of the WNBA since it's 9 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: inception in nineteen ninety seven, and friends of mine who 10 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: were like, you need to watch this game. You need 11 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: to watch like the competitive nature of these women and 12 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: support women in sports. And so for the last year 13 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: plus I have developed an absolute obsession and as you 14 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 1: can see, my voice is horse obsession with the WNBA 15 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: and particularly with the Liberty as Barclays is in Brooklyn, 16 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: and you know that that is where the Home Bunker is, 17 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: so all things Brooklyn big up. But I am so 18 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: excited for the Liberty win for the first time in 19 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 1: their franchise history in twenty eight years, that they brought 20 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: home the WNBA championship. The series was an absolute nail bier. 21 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,199 Speaker 1: It was the best in sports that I think people 22 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: have ever seen games went into overtime. I mean, you're 23 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: talking about cranking out, grinding out these games with such mastery. 24 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: And you know when I talk about it today, because 25 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: you know, one, I was able to be at Game five, 26 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,399 Speaker 1: the finals and court side and it was just like extraordinary. 27 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: And I've had the wonderful pleasure of being court side 28 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: and a number of Liberty games and it is just incredible. 29 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: The center is, you know, just like off the chains 30 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 1: in terms of vibes. And you know what I love 31 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: so much about the WNBA is the women who are 32 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: committed to social justice. They're committed to change. They're fighting 33 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 1: for increase pay for themselves, They're fighting for LGBTQ rights, 34 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: they're fighting for you know, black lives. They are they 35 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: put it all on the line, and I think what 36 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: makes them exceptional is that they are largely a group 37 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: of queer and black women right the marginalized of the marginalized, 38 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: and they are just so fucking talented and incredible that 39 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: to see the league row by leaps and bounds over 40 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: the last couple of years and see the investment being made, 41 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 1: it just goes to show you that what happens when 42 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 1: investment is made. When people stop, when men, I'll say, 43 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: stop making assumptions about what people will watch and what 44 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: people will be interested in, and the you know, watching 45 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: the WNBA and kind of you know, all of the 46 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: pushback at the low salaries in these things. I'm like, 47 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: women have been fighting for equal pay in this country, 48 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: in all industries for so many fucking years, and I 49 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: think that when you see it on a sports level, 50 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: when you're watching men literally play the same game, the 51 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: same sport and are paid astronomically higher and being told well, 52 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: that's because you know people like watching men's sports, well, 53 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: because you've never invested in building out the fan base 54 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: and giving it the eyeballs and the attention and the 55 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: kudos and all of these things that it is needed. 56 00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: And that's what's been happening with some of the extraordinary 57 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: players over the last couple of years. So it's just 58 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: been really dope to watch and be a part of. 59 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: So I just say congrats to the WNBA champions, the 60 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: New York Liberty, well deserved, hard fought and just exhilarating. 61 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: I cannot like the countdown and now begins for the 62 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five season, and I took a break, friends, 63 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: because I, like I tell you all the time, take 64 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: a break so that you do not have a breakdown 65 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: following the polls that are coming out and following like 66 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: everything is deadlocked and everything is you know, neck and neck. 67 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: And I think that for some people it can work 68 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: in one way, which is it implores people to keep 69 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: putting the pedal to the metal to keep pushing things out, 70 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: to keep you know, getting out the vote. And for 71 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 1: other people, I think that it is completely totally disheartening 72 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: because did you listen to top fucking Donald Trump over 73 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: the weekend. Did you listen to him go off about 74 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: a man's genitalia for twelve minutes and like people applauding 75 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: and clapping like mindless fucking seals, no insult to seals, 76 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: but like it is astonishing that this man can put 77 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: on a fucking apron for a stage photo op and 78 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: the media foams at the mouth over this bullshit, and 79 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: it's just like how many times do you have to 80 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: be fooled? How many times does Donald Trump have to like, 81 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: you know, dictate the coverage before these people are like, oh, 82 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: maybe this isn't good, maybe it's not helpful. It's so infuriating, 83 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: and I'm just you know, every once in a while, 84 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: I need a break. And the thing is is that 85 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 1: much in the same way that the WNBA and women's 86 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: sports is indicative of the way that women across industries 87 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: are underpaid and undervalued. You look at what is happening 88 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: on the main stage, on the main political stage, the 89 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,559 Speaker 1: world stage, with our election, and you look at Donald Trump, 90 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: who is a fucking bumbling idiot, who is a Cretan, 91 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: who is a sexual assaulter, who is a felon, who 92 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: is a grifter, who is a liar, who is no 93 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: one that anyone who cares about their kids or the 94 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 1: future of this country should look to that man and say, oh, 95 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: I would like my child to emulate him. Presidents and 96 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: vice presidents and elected officials used to be held to 97 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: a certain standard, a certain kind of dignity and morals 98 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: and values. It's not to say that we haven't had 99 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: throughout time people who have been arrested or people who 100 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: have abused their power, like Nixon, But never in our 101 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: fucking lives, in the history of this country, have we 102 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: seen anything so goddamn offensive as Donald fucking Trump. And 103 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: when you compare him to Kamala Harris, who is a 104 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: woman that is actually worked for a living, that actually 105 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: built an impressive career as a prosecutor, as an attorney general, 106 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: then as a senator, then as a vice president of 107 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: the United States, and I'm certain I'm missing things in 108 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: between there, but like crawled and created and built who 109 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: she is. Donald Trump had his whole life fucking handed 110 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: to him on a plate and still managed to go 111 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: fucking bankrupt multiple times over. But he's white, and he's 112 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: a man, and he is famous, so therefore he warrants 113 00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: the opportunity to become president again. So when you look 114 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: at it, I know, like most people, you feel absolutely 115 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: fucking disgusted, because I don't know how else we're supposed 116 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: to feel. But when after taking a break for two 117 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: days to come back to hear that Donald Trump went 118 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: on a twelve minute rant about another man's genitalia to 119 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: people's fucking applause, and that was like a story. But 120 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: the most important story for the media was his fucking 121 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: apron at a McDonald's. Folks. Oh my god, oh my god. 122 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: It literally makes me want to change careers, you know, 123 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: And if Donald Trump is elected, understand that I will 124 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: have to because Donald Trump not only did he say 125 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: last week that he's going to shut down the Department 126 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: of Education, he also plans on shutting down the media. 127 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: He also plans on using the military on Americans who 128 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: don't agree with him. The way that America will turn 129 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: fully into a fucking authoritarian regime, the way that this 130 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: country will be dictated to by these religious, white supremacist zealots, 131 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: and the fact that we are quote unquote neck and 132 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: neck right now is so serious and so infuriating. Infuriating 133 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 1: is the only word that I can use, because I 134 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: got to tell you, folks, you know, just kind of 135 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: looking at what's happening right now. You have Elon Musk 136 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,679 Speaker 1: that is doling out million dollar cash prizes as if 137 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: our election is some type of fucking game show like 138 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: The Apprentice two point zero, saying I'll give you a 139 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: million dollars if you sign this pledge and you do 140 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: this thing, just literally selling our democracy off to whomever. 141 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: Pouring seventy five million dollar into Donald Trump's campaign. And 142 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: I'm looking around wondering where the fuck Merrick Garland is, 143 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: But you know, he's where he's always been, probably hiding 144 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: under a desk somewhere with his head in the fucking sand, 145 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 1: just hoping that the building that he's in doesn't come 146 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: crashing and crumbling around him, because he hasn't done anything 147 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: to fortify our democracy or our justice system in the 148 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: last four goddamn years. How it occurs to me is 149 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: that Merrick Garland could very well be the last Attorney 150 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: General of these United States. And do you think that 151 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: he used his last four years in any type of 152 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: way that would strengthen our democracy, that would pursue just 153 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: this in the face of criminality. No, he's actually done 154 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 1: quite the fucking opposite. So you know, folks, it makes 155 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: me so angry that things could be neck and neck 156 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: that we know that if we just got rid of 157 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: the fucking electoral college and let every person's vote count 158 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: the same, one person, one vote, and everybody counts the same, 159 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter whether you're in Nevada or New York, 160 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: whether you're in California or Tennessee, and the person that 161 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: wins the most votes wins. But that's not how this 162 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: plays out because of the racist electoral college. Because the 163 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: electoral college was created to give these rural states the 164 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,959 Speaker 1: same amount of weight as these larger states that had 165 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: people of color that were enslaved, right black people, and 166 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: so we can't really count them towards the population because 167 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: we don't count them as humans. Like anything that is 168 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: based on the fucking Atlantic slave the Transatlantic slave trade, 169 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: do you think that we could get rid of in 170 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: the twenty first century. No, we continue to honor that shit, 171 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: create marble statues out of all of it. So you know, 172 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: today when I tap back in, I was just like 173 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: so completely and totally outdone, just kind of like over 174 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: the United States at this point, and really just like 175 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: over the people right like over the racism, I should say, 176 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: not over the people that are standing in line, that 177 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 1: are early voting at breaking records of their states and 178 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: doing the most, but much in the same way that 179 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: people were forced out in a pandemic to fight for 180 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,079 Speaker 1: their rights as well as trying to fight for their life, 181 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: as well as trying to cast the ballot with a 182 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: person that you know was urging on lies and ceding 183 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: lies about the election, knowing that his numbers were not 184 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: looking good, and then ended up leading an insurrection following 185 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: the election. The fact that this man is running, folks 186 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: is wild to me. The fact that one in five 187 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: Republicans want Trump to call the election election invallid if 188 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: he loses. It's just like everything that is wrong with 189 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: America is what Trump embodies and what he has given 190 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 1: people permission to just spew. Like I've seen some of 191 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: these videos by some of these Trump supporters, and it's 192 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: just like, folks will be We'll post these videos of 193 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,719 Speaker 1: these angry white people just screaming, yelling, blah blah blah, 194 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: and it's just like, are you okay? Like are you okay? 195 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: How does a gay person getting married have anything to 196 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: do with how you're showing up in your life? How 197 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: does a child learning about the real founding of this 198 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: country do anything other that make us proud about how 199 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: far we've come and how far we've yet to go? Like, 200 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: why is it that white people always think that like 201 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: their children will identify with the worst. That says much 202 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: more about your parenting than it does our democracy. You know, folks, 203 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: we are two weeks away from this election's final day, 204 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 1: and I've never wanted anything to be finished more And 205 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: kind of part of what scares me right now is 206 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: the fact that we are two weeks away and it's 207 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 1: a toss up about whether America will hold on to 208 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: democracy for four more years or we're just over it, or, 209 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: as I should say, the white masses are over democracy 210 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: because it no longer works for them in the way 211 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: that white supremacy will. I want us to stay extraordinarily hopeful. 212 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: I want us to continue to do all that we 213 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: can in these final weeks. I encourage folks to early vote. 214 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: In New York where I am, early voting will start 215 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: at the end of this week. I for the first time, 216 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: will be voting early, as opposed to on election day, 217 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: because I'm going to be so busy on election day 218 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: and probably entrance for part of it, so I want 219 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: to make sure that you know I go early and 220 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: get it done. I would love to go back to 221 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: the times when elections were joyous, when it was just 222 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: exciting and going to a watch party and you could 223 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: enjoy being a part of the democratic process. I don't 224 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: know if we will ever get back to that place, 225 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: and maybe we will, but just not in my lifetime. 226 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: Because if Kamala Harris, if democracy is able to win, 227 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: we are going to be just as fractured as we 228 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: were on November fifth, on the day that the election 229 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: is actually decided, So yes, we will have. If she's 230 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: able to eke out a win, we're able to kind 231 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: of move forward with clear heads, and finally, God willing 232 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: get rid of Donald Trump once and for fucking all, 233 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 1: and then he can deal with the cadre of lawsuits 234 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: that we'll be waiting for him now that he's no 235 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: longer the Republican candidate for president. But if she doesn't 236 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: and it's close enough for them to steal it, I 237 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: don't know, folks, I'm not going to really allow that 238 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: thought to really fully enter into my mind because it's 239 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: not productive. Because as I told my sister one day 240 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: when she was feeling really low about the election, and 241 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: I said, it takes just as much energy to be 242 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: hopeful as it does to wallow in despair. And so 243 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: I'm going to put my energy towards being hopeful and 244 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: energizing all of you as well as myself to do 245 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: what needs to be done because I still believe that 246 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: we can win. I say, fuck all the polls that 247 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: you're reading, even though I go over polls because I 248 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: have to, but I constantly say take them with a 249 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: grain of fucking salt, because you can get them to 250 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 1: say whatever you want them to say. The polls that 251 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: I care about right now are the early voting polls. 252 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 1: Are the ones that tell me that places like North 253 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: Carolina and Georgia are breaking records. The places that are 254 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: telling me that early voting in Pennsylvania and other battleground 255 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: areas are breaking records from twenty twenty. That's what matters 256 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:16,719 Speaker 1: to me. Everything else is conjecture until it's done. So 257 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: with that said, my dear friends, keep your head held up, 258 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: keep working, keep donating, keep canvassing, keep talking to people, 259 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:33,199 Speaker 1: keep getting out the vote, because that that is what 260 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:38,439 Speaker 1: is going to be the difference maker. That is it 261 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 1: for me today, dear friends on wokef as always power 262 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: to the people and to all the people. Power, Get 263 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: woke and stay woke as fuck.
