Whether 6 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 1: it's through guns, right and their love affairs with guns, 7 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: whether it's through their love affair with covidum, through their 8 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: love affair with supporting and celebrating violence.

You know, sometimes it strikes me how 11 00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 1: fast America has devolved it. You know, I remember somebody 12 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 1: recently posted on Twitter a tweet that I put out 13 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: right after the election, and it was a clip of 14 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: me on woke af going off about the fifty three 15 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 1: percent of white women that voted for Donald Trump against 16 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 1: someone that looked like them. And because of that, because 17 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: of their allegiance to patriarchy and white supremacy, we are 18 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: in this hell hole, this cesspool, this democracy light, which 19 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: by the end of twenty twenty two, when that is 20 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: our final free and fair election, will be democracy less. 21 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: It won't be a democracy, it'll be some hybrid sham 22 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: bullshit that we live in. Maybe part theocracy being is 23 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: how it's white evangelical Christians who are getting everything that 24 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: they fuck want first. It's rov Wade right, if you 25 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: were paying attention to what is happening at the Supreme 26 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: Court right now and listening listening to what the justices 27 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: Trump justices on the Supreme Court have said about the 28 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: Mississippi fifteen week band that undermines, guts, destroys rov Wade, 29 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: a law that has been on the books for damn 30 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: near fifty fucking years. For fifty years, Republicans have had 31 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: a long playbook that they have been using fifty years. 32 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: It has been their desire to once again take over 33 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: the control of people's uteruses, right to control women and how, when, 34 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: if where they decide to have children. Amy Covid fucking 35 00:02:54,320 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: Barrett said after the two hours of debate said during 36 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: the two hours of opening arguments for this case that 37 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: she doesn't understand why we even need Casey or Roe v. Wade, 38 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: because there are safe havens all over the country, So 39 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: people should be forced to into giving birth because there 40 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: are adoptions that take place, because we don't even do 41 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: a good job of dealing with our current foster care 42 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: system in this country. But yeah, we should force women 43 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: to go through nine months of pregnancy that they don't want. 44 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: What in the hopes that because you are forcing them 45 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: that they will change their minds? Or oh, look at 46 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: what a delight. We'll give it to this loving couple, 47 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: so long as they're not gay, so long as they're 48 00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: not queer. Right. It makes me fucking sick that we 49 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: are here, we are in this state of what is 50 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:12,839 Speaker 1: soon to be disrepair. I mean, I don't think that 51 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: we are going to get to the other side. I 52 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 1: don't think that we are ever going to be safe. 53 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: I don't know how to express this without sounding alarmists, 54 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 1: But when I shared the tweet after the election, I 55 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: was so fucking angry because all I could hear in 56 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: my mind were the comments about Hillary Clinton's emails, and 57 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: you know about I don't like her. You know, there's 58 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: just something about her I don't like. Yes, she's a strong, powerful, thoughtful, 59 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: brilliant woman, right who America refused to fucking listen to 60 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: When she told you exactly who the fuck these people were, 61 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: She said that they were deplora. She said that they 62 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: were not to be trusted. She said that Donald Trump 63 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: was Putin's puppet. She said that the Supreme Court would fall. 64 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: She wasn't a fucking oracle, but she knew what Republicans 65 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: are up to because she has known what they have 66 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: been up to. It's everyone else that's looking around going, 67 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: oh my god, acting fucking shocked. You're shocked that there 68 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: is an attempt and not an attempt, because you see, 69 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: an attempt means that it could or could not happen. 70 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: Rophie Wade is fucking gone. And it was gone the 71 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: moment that Donald Trump became President of the United States. 72 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: And you see, but Democrats never have conversations about the courts. 73 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: They never talk about how important they are, why we 74 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 1: need to be paying attention. But you know who has 75 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: been talking about the courts. Who has been paying attention 76 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: for the last fifty fucking years, White Evangelical Christians, the 77 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: Federalist fucking Society, which is where all of Donald Trump's 78 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: little minions came from. Mitch McConnell knew how fucking important 79 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: the courts were, right, That's why he rammed through three 80 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: hundred federal judges, didn't put out any legislation worth a 81 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: damn for the American people. Right, No, you can't say 82 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: to me what it was that was Trump's signature achievement, Right, 83 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: What was the policy that he put out that bettered us? No, 84 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 1: but his legacy, you see, is going to last for 85 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 1: fucking generations. And that is exactly what Republicans wanted. That 86 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: was always the plan. They didn't need the smartest guy 87 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: in the room. They needed the one with the biggest 88 00:06:55,160 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: fucking mouth, the one that knew how to manipulate the media. 89 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: You feed them all your lies, and then the people 90 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: that actually know how to get things done, like Mitch McConnell, 91 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: then you have them do all of the political maneuvers, 92 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: chip away little by little by little, and then you 93 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: wake up and we will be the only industrialized country 94 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: in the world that has the audacity to go around 95 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: and talk about women's rights, and we won't have access 96 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: to abortion. And if you think for a second that 97 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: they are going to stop there, then you are not 98 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: fucking paying attention. They are going after contraception next because 99 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: they want women locked up. Remember when they were screaming 100 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: lock her up, lock her up, locker up, talking about 101 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton. They weren't just talking about Hillary Clinton. They 102 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: were talking about any woman who had the audacity to 103 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: want to have power over her own body, the power 104 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: to speak out, the power to decide where I work, 105 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: how I work, if I work, because that's what's Being 106 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: able to control your reproduction allows you the freedom to 107 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: do that. Fifty year old women in this country had 108 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: never lived in a country that didn't have access to abortion. 109 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: Now their daughters won't. I want you to think about this, 110 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: because you see, folks these days seem to get really 111 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: caught up in their fucking siloed issues and siloed things, 112 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: And I'm just like, do you not see that the 113 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: path to authoritarianism, the path to minority rule, has already 114 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: been paved. The Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act. 115 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: We are here right now with states after state after 116 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: state creating voter suppression laws. Now I hear that the 117 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: number is well over four hundred and voter suppression laws. 118 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: The Supreme Court made that happen, how by gutting preclarance, 119 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 1: right by not having oversight. Oh, we've come so far, 120 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: they said, so we'll take away your rights. Then you 121 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: have Donald Trump come in and spread the big lie 122 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 1: and all of his minions spreading the big lie. They're 123 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: just checking off the boxes. So now abortion gone, voting 124 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: rights gone. Two people that have the power to ensure 125 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 1: to enshrine our protections into law, to enshrine and safeguard 126 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: our democracy, Joe Manchion and Kirsten Cinema. No, they'd rather 127 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:37,599 Speaker 1: make love to the filibuster then abolish an archaic and 128 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: archaic practice that is now going to be the cause 129 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: of our demos. You see, when they put up the 130 00:10:46,120 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: headstone that is American democracy succumbed to the filibuster, that 131 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 1: will be the cause of death, and they will have 132 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: been the executioners. But you know, the media won't tell 133 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: that story. They'll blame black and brown people for not 134 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: risking their lives to come out because you know, the 135 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: next up, the next thing that we will have because 136 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 1: now you know, we allow people to strap up with 137 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: R fifteen rifles and just you know, protect property. Now 138 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: they'll strap up and they'll protect the polls. And so 139 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: the media will then blame the black and brown people 140 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: for not wanting to come out and vote because you know, 141 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: they don't want to die. But they won't have a 142 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: conversation about how we got here and whose fault it 143 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: really is, because it's so much easier to make the 144 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: people who are oppressed the problem rather than pointing the 145 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: spotlight on the oppressor. America was done in twenty sixteen. 146 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 1: That's when the coup fucking started, And if you really 147 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: want to think about it, it was really in early 148 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: two thousand. I'll take you back to Bush v. Gore. 149 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 1: I take you back to the Supreme Court deciding the election. 150 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: I take you then to the rage that filled in 151 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: white people having to call a black man there president, 152 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 1: and the plans, the wheels that began churning, the plans 153 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: that would be concocted to make certain that that would 154 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 1: never happen again. And so to show you how much 155 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: power whiteness has, we're going to pick the stupidest, the 156 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: most racist, the most misogynistic piece of shit, just to 157 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: show you that we can do anything whenever we want, 158 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: however we want. So here we are. And the funny 159 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: thing is is that people always loved to, you know, 160 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 1: say that the sky is falling. The sky is falling, right, 161 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,559 Speaker 1: but only every four years. There's been no long term 162 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: plan for what one does when you realize that one 163 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: of the political parties in this country has turned into 164 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: a full fledged fucking white supremacists, white Evangelical Christian violent cult. 165 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: But you see, we've been in this now for a 166 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: couple of years and pretending that we still have two 167 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: political parties, pretending that you know, Republicans are just you know, 168 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 1: mucking things up. No, they are on a search and 169 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: destroy shin for the entirety of America. Just think about 170 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: where we are right now. Over the summer, how many 171 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: fucking videos did you see of these eighth shit fucking 172 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: crazy white parents threatening to harm kill school officials for 173 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: putting in mask mandates. It's gonna traumatize their kids. They said, 174 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: it's abuse. They said, you know, protecting your child from 175 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: a virus that is killed well over seven hundred thousand 176 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: fucking people in the United States and millions around the globe. 177 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: They're protesting, flipping tables, protesting in front of fucking hospitals. 178 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: This week we had our twenty eighth fucking school shooting. 179 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: School's been in session for four months, kids have been 180 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: back in school for four months, and there are twenty 181 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 1: eight shootings, the latest one in Michigan. The fourth victim 182 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: died this week in the hospital. He was seventeen. The 183 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: boy who killed him fifteen. His dad had only bought 184 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: the gun four days prior Black Friday sale, and then 185 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: he took it to school, walked around and got off 186 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: thirty rounds in ten minutes and had many more to go. 187 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: They want to say, Oh, the kid was bullied. I 188 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: don't give a fuck. Why was that gun in the 189 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: home so easy to fucking access. You want to have guns, fine, 190 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 1: have your fucking guns. I don't give a fuck. Lock 191 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: them up, have some type of safety measures. If your 192 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: kid is able to get access to that gun in 193 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: your home, then you two should be standing fucking trial. 194 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: This is bullshit. America is the only fucking place where 195 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: we have fucking gun drills at schools. We are creating 196 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: bulletproof backpacks. We're listening to reporters. Asked the sheriff, Well, 197 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: should we have put in metal detectors. Yes, let's turn 198 00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: our schools into fucking prisons to keep it's safe, but 199 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 1: not go after exactly what it is that is making 200 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: them unsafe. No, let's put more guns in schools. Let's 201 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: put in metal detectors. Let's send every kid a fucking 202 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 1: bulletproof backpack. Let's have them do drills. Maybe we should 203 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: turn gym class into army class so that they can 204 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: learn how to crawl on their bellies right, dig a 205 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: fucking ditch so that they can hide in that. Instead 206 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: of taking away the fucking guns, putting together actual policy 207 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: and safety measures so that our children are safe in 208 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: These same stupid motherfuckers who want to get on the 209 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: Senate floor talking about the sanctity of life, They don't 210 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: know dick about anybody's sanctity of life. You care about cells, 211 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 1: a collection of cells in a fucking uterus, not the 212 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 1: kids that were hiding under their fucking desks with masks on, 213 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: that have lost now four of their classmates. Because that's 214 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: just what it's like to be a teenager in America. 215 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 1: The possibility that you know when you leave on the 216 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: school bus, or you're walking, or you get off the subway, 217 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,199 Speaker 1: that you know you could be shot dead in your 218 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: fucking classroom. That's what we have normalized here. Oh what 219 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: about the children. We protest because you don't want your 220 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: kids reading fucking Tony Morrison. But I don't see any 221 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: fucking protests about sending your kids to school and a 222 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: fucking hail of bullets and the fact that they have 223 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: to do gun patrol drills. But you want to talk 224 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: to me about what about the children and the sanctity 225 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: of fucking life. Meanwhile, the three justices that Trump appointed 226 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: have one hundred percent writing with the NRA, and they 227 00:18:53,119 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 1: want to dictate to me about life. The madness that 228 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: we are living in right now. It is absurd to 229 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: me how we have turned into a country that is 230 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: swimming in fucking stupidity, drowning in it. The hypocrisy is 231 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: astounding to me. You want to lecture people on life, 232 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: but advocating that they take off their mass, advocating against vaccines, 233 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: advocating to be pro virus and pro gun, and then 234 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: you want to be the same party to lecture me 235 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:47,959 Speaker 1: on life. How does that work? How is it that 236 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: Democrats can't find a way to say the fucking loud 237 00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: part out right, like say it. They're saying it out loud. 238 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 1: It's not as if Republicans are hiding. That's the thing 239 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: you don't on democracy Ish with my friend Washahat, he said, 240 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: it's like the entire party is just a cast of 241 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: bond villains. And he's like, you know how in Bond movies, 242 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 1: like they announce exactly what it is that they're going 243 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 1: to be doing and why they're doing it and how 244 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: they're gonna do it. But we gotta wait for two hours, 245 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: right for James Bond to spring into action. It's the 246 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: same shit, except there is no Bond, right. There's just 247 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: outrage and debate. There's just political performance but not real action. 248 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: The fact that this school shooting in Michigan wasn't even 249 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: the fucking top story tells you where we are right now. 250 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 1: There are multiple states, and we have a federal judge 251 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 1: that just stopped Biden's vaccine mandate. Twenty five percent of 252 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 1: this country is controlling the other seventy five percent. And 253 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: I am telling you this is not ending without war. 254 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: It isn't. Because if you think that Republicans are going 255 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: to keep pushing and pushing and pushing, because sometimes apparently 256 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: people got to feel extreme pain and extreme loss before 257 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: they spring into action. But I mark my words because 258 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to be right. I don't want to 259 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: see blood in the streets. I don't want to participate 260 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: in a fucking civil war. But you tell me where 261 00:21:50,080 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: you think this is going. It has taken what six years, 262 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: six seven years at this point now for a country 263 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: that is hundreds of years old to tank. Everything that 264 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 1: you thought was written into stone or written into the 265 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: Constitution became up for grabs when Donald Trump became president 266 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: and appointed three justices, three hundred federal judges, got an 267 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 1: entire party to spread a lie, an entire cable network 268 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: that supports and amplifies their messaging, and we're all still 269 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: sitting around debating about whether or not Republicans care about 270 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: this country? Are you fucking dumb? You know? I blame 271 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: the mainstream media so fucking much because I'm like, you 272 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: all still want to p ten that there is neutrality, right, 273 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: that you can't just say what the fuck is going on? 274 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: This is why I do this show, because I'm like, 275 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 1: am I the only one who is just gonna say 276 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 1: it like it is and not pretend right for the ratings, 277 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: what for the sponsors that all is well, it's fucking not. 278 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: All is shit right now? And oh, by the way, 279 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: I'm Nicron already in the United States, But of course 280 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 1: it would be because guess what else doesn't work? Fucking 281 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: travel bands? But yeah, let's continue to do that, but 282 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: only for the black and brown countries. No one else. 283 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:57,880 Speaker 1: America runs on racism, stupidity, and faux outrage, outrage over 284 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: all of the wrong fucking things. Because I got to 285 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,120 Speaker 1: tell you that if I was a parent right now, 286 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 1: I would be hemming up every fucking Senator because you see, 287 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:15,199 Speaker 1: the House already passed gun control laws. It's not going 288 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: to get done in the Senate because of mansion in cinema. 289 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 1: I just you know, some days I just look around 290 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 1: and I am like out fucking done. And this is 291 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: one of those days where I'm like, the week is 292 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: not even over yet. We've lost abortion, kids have been murdered. 293 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 1: We have a new variant because the greed of wealthy 294 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: nations refusing to lift waivers that would allow lower income 295 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: nations the ability to manufacture their vaccines, to vaccinate their 296 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,719 Speaker 1: people and not wait on fucking donations and money that 297 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: never comes. Oh, it's so wonderful to do these fucking 298 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: g seven summits and all of these conversations and to 299 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: take pictures and oh, let's give the appearance that all 300 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: is well when we know that it isn't. It's like 301 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: I feel like we are living in the Truman Show. 302 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: Everything is made up. Everything is bullshit. Those summits. What 303 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 1: the fuck do they do because climate change is raging 304 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 1: out of control? I haven't seen any real measures taken. Oh, 305 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: we'll take those steps in twenty thirty, and then we'll 306 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 1: get to twenty thirty and we'll kick the can further 307 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 1: down the road. If in fact the world hasn't fucking 308 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: imploded by them. Everything that you see playing out on 309 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: the micro level, we have experienced. Right. It's the greed, 310 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 1: the hunger for power that runs everything. Why aren't South 311 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: why is in South Africa and African nations? Why aren't 312 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 1: they at the same level of vaccination rate? Right? Why 313 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: when India and South Africa petitioned to have the trips 314 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: waiver to get rid of the intellectual property rights so 315 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 1: that it could be manufactured, how how does that get 316 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: pushed off? Oh, so that Fiser can make more billions, 317 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: so that Murderna could make more billions, and then they 318 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: do this handshake deal the corporations with the governments. It's 319 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: all about money. It's not about this sentity of life. 320 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: We could give a fuck, Like what if Republicans need 321 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 1: to do. They need to just come out and say 322 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: we want to control you we need right the G 323 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 1: seven that says we don't give a fuck about poor nations, 324 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 1: right like, you just need them to say those things 325 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: because their actions don't tell you what is true. You know, 326 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: out on my walk yesterday, I was talking with one 327 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: of my friends, a gentleman that you know sits at 328 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 1: the pier and you know, just takes in the sunshine, 329 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 1: the breeze, smiles, waves to people, and he said to me, 330 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 1: you know, Danielle, I don't think things are going to 331 00:27:53,960 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: get any better, and you just really have to enjoy life. 332 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 1: You have to find a way to enjoy life. And 333 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: that is in all honesty my message. It's like when 334 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 1: you look at everything that has taken place and it 335 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: feels I mean, some days I actually feel like I 336 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: can't breathe. And it's why I meditate so that I 337 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 1: can practice and focus taking in deep breaths. Because when 338 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: I watched the news, when I read what is happening, 339 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: when I learned that the only reason we didn't have 340 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 1: school shootings in twenty twenty is because of a global 341 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 1: health pandemic. That's the only reason it wasn't because our 342 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: government took any action to keep us safe. Wasn't because 343 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: the people that we elect to represent us did anything 344 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: to protect the children. That are only good as political props, 345 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: but in actuality you could give a fuck. Why don't 346 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: they give that kid that shut up his school the 347 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: Congressional Gold Medal? What's the difference between him and Kyle Rittenhouse. 348 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 1: I don't see the difference. We want to say, oh, 349 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: he was bullied. Okay, there are plenty of kids that 350 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: are fucking bullied that don't take out fucking guns. What 351 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 1: is its schools can do? Schools can't do anything right. 352 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: We are asking schools to do too fucking much. What 353 00:29:55,440 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: are our politicians doing? What is our president doing? Stop 354 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: saying that teachers need to be armed or teachers need 355 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: to do this in schools need to do that? What 356 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: the fuck are politicians doing? Nothing? You have to look 357 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: for the joy you do. You have to find it. 358 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:29,479 Speaker 1: You know. That is my hope that after every single 359 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: episode that folks listen to that, then you're like, Okay, 360 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: I know what's going on. Now, I'm going on a walk, 361 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to garden, I'm gonna bake a pie. I'm 362 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: going to do something to counterbalance the fuckery that we 363 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 1: are in because folks, I'm gonna be. I don't think 364 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 1: this is getting better. It actually is getting progressively worse. 365 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: And do you know what terrifies me? This is what's 366 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: happening when Democrats are in power. This is what winning 367 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: looks like. We have the House, we have the Senate, 368 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: we have the White House, and now we're recognizing there 369 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 1: aren't coequal branches of government because they have the fucking judiciary. 370 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: You know. The other thing that I want people to 371 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: recognize too is Roby Waite is dead. There is gonna 372 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: be there's no qualms about that. You were going to 373 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: wait until June for the actual decision, but it's done 374 00:31:49,920 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: right fifty years. What do you think is next? Because 375 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: if you think that striking down school segregation isn't up 376 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: for grabs, if you think that, you know, same sex 377 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: marriage isn't up for grabs. If you think that anything anything, 378 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 1: any law isn't up for grabs, isn't on their hot 379 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: ticket list, you aren't paying attention. You know, people think 380 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: that their money, you know, is going to be able 381 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: to protect them. And I joke and I say, you know, 382 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: why are all the billionaires racing to get off of 383 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: this planet? Because they know what's done right, and they 384 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: have the means to go, you know, forward, someplace else. 385 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: It's the rest of us, right, that are going to 386 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: be in fucking lyseum. It's the rest of us that 387 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 1: are fucked because the world has just become so dangerous. 388 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:03,719 Speaker 1: If you are not white, if you are not straight, 389 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: if you are not Christian, if you are not male, 390 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: the world America is an incredibly dangerous place. We are 391 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: a powder keg one next, the next protest, the next spark, 392 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: the next thing that comes up will be the what 393 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: does us in Kyle rittenhouse walks after murdering two people 394 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 1: and wounding a third, what do you think is going 395 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 1: to happen at the next protests the next march? They're 396 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: going to come locked and loaded. They've already told us 397 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: that Lauren Bobert was on Steve Bannon's show, because you know, 398 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: Steve Bannon is just you know, free and clear, walking 399 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: around waiting on his trial while continuing to spread lies 400 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: and promote hate and division and just relishing in the destruction. 401 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: And she said on his show that we're not the fringe, right, 402 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: That's what people had hoped that bow Bird and Taylor 403 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 1: Green Holloway and ghosts are that these people were just 404 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: the fringe of the Republican Party. They are not. They 405 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: are so integral to the Republican Party that leadership is 406 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 1: afraid to admonish them. And they, you know, let me 407 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 1: not even say that they're afraid to admonish them. They're 408 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 1: not afraid. They don't want to. They know that this 409 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:45,720 Speaker 1: is the future. They love their violence, they love their guns, 410 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:53,760 Speaker 1: they love their threats and their terror. They're terrorists. That's 411 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: what it means to be a terrorist, to provoke terror 412 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: in people. What do you think that Marjorie Taylor Green, 413 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,800 Speaker 1: what was the decision behind her sunglass photo with the 414 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:08,959 Speaker 1: AR fifteen and the faces of her colleagues behind her. 415 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: What do you think Gosar was intending to do with 416 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: that anime violent video of him murdering his colleague. We 417 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 1: don't protect children in this country. We don't protect women. 418 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:33,879 Speaker 1: I keep saying, you know, well, maybe maybe things will 419 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 1: change if you know, one of the members of Congresses 420 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:42,439 Speaker 1: is killed, But then I realized they wouldn't give a fuck. 421 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: Seven hundred thousand Americans are dead, and you have governors 422 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: fighting against vaccine mandates, right, you have them wanting to 423 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 1: fight to give an internship to Immerse. Where do you 424 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 1: think that this is headed? It is headed towards violence, 425 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 1: It is headed towards one or all of the members 426 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:21,400 Speaker 1: of color that they are obsessed with being killed. And 427 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: then the media will question and say, you think it 428 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,799 Speaker 1: was the rhetoric that did it? And let's waste airtime 429 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:32,440 Speaker 1: and breath debating that who's responsible? This is an outrage, 430 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:36,879 Speaker 1: and then we'll all go back to doing what we 431 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: were doing before. There is no stopping the crazy train 432 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: unless you derail it and burn it down. And I 433 00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 1: don't think that Republicans would care them because, as they say, 434 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: they'd get to use their guns, create division, flood the 435 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:18,720 Speaker 1: country with guns, flood the country with white supremacist judges, 436 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: stack the Supreme Court, and you got apartheid in America, 437 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:41,280 Speaker 1: you got the new Jim Crow. You got nineteen fifty three. 438 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: As Wajahat so poignantly said on Democracy Ish when he said, 439 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: you see, it's really that they want to go back 440 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: to nineteen fifty three, I said, why why nineteen fifty three? 441 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:03,359 Speaker 1: That's an obscure year because that was the year right 442 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 1: before Board versus the Board of Education was decided, and 443 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: we began to see increased white rage violence right and then, 444 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 1: wasn't the spark of white lash and violence in this 445 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:31,880 Speaker 1: country wasn't from abortion. Abortion is a low hanging fruit 446 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:38,840 Speaker 1: for the Supreme Court. These people want to go back 447 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:44,399 Speaker 1: back to when there are no consequences, because there really 448 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: are no consequences now, but they want to make it 449 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 1: explicit so that people like me, like you will be 450 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 1: put in their place. People like us will be terrorized, 451 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: afraid to leave our homes. We're not even safe in 452 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:12,359 Speaker 1: our homes. This is an incredibly scary time. It's an 453 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 1: incredibly scary time. And I think you know because my 454 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:22,359 Speaker 1: sister lives abroad. She hears and sees the news through 455 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:29,800 Speaker 1: you know, global eyes, and she's just like people looking 456 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: at America right now, like, God, damn, glad I'm not there. 457 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 1: I remember a vacation that I took right before the pandemic, 458 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 1: and it was a family trip to Portugal, and the 459 00:39:51,080 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 1: boat guide was saying to us, man, America, huh, guys, 460 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:08,280 Speaker 1: aren't in great shape. America used to be the envy 461 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: of the world. Whether or not it should have been 462 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 1: is a whole other story and a whole other episode, 463 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: but it was the beacon. What the democracy that people 464 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 1: aspire to, the possibility that people aspire to not anymore? Like, 465 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 1: you have to think about how bad things have to 466 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 1: be in your country for you to fulle hear and 467 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: think you'll be safe. But soon America will look like 468 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:52,720 Speaker 1: it's run by the Mexican drug cartel. Right, it's run 469 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 1: by the white supremacist cartel. Right, And what are they 470 00:40:56,480 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 1: pushing drugs? No US hatred theocracy? Right, I'm scared. That's 471 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 1: the truth. And it's a terrifying place to be where 472 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: you are looking around and you're feeling powerless, You're feeling like, 473 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 1: is there a way to stop this? Like what does 474 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 1: that look like? What does it look like outside of 475 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: a civil war? Because honestly, I have no idea. At 476 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 1: this point, we already know that the policy route is 477 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 1: dead in the water. Thanks to Joe Mansion and Kristen Cinema. 478 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: It's done so Biden can get on television and talk 479 00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: to me about build back better and talk to me 480 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,879 Speaker 1: about whatever other alliteration fucking policy that he's gonna put out. 481 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, it doesn't fucking matter, 482 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 1: not if we don't have a democracy, not if twenty 483 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 1: twenty two is going to be our last free and 484 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 1: fair election because we already know what the fuck is 485 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: going to go down in twenty twenty four, and frankly, 486 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:22,920 Speaker 1: right twenty twenty two, just a little will be a tester. 487 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 1: Let's see how many of these elections that are taking 488 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 1: place in the midtim are contested. Let them get their 489 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:41,359 Speaker 1: wheels in motion. That's what they're gonna do. So when 490 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 1: you're looking around and you're just like yo, if climate 491 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:50,839 Speaker 1: change doesn't get us, if omikron doesn't get us, if 492 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 1: fucking gun violence doesn't get us, if white supremacists don't 493 00:42:55,120 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 1: get us, right like you feel like you're being attacked 494 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: on all sides. The first right of amikron is now 495 00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:19,320 Speaker 1: discovered in California, certain it'll be around the country before 496 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:21,840 Speaker 1: we know it. Why because twenty five percent of the 497 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 1: country isn't gonna get fucking vaccinated, and they're going to 498 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 1: be the ones to die. And that's what's hysterical, Like 499 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna die. I'm vaccinated and boosted. But your 500 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,839 Speaker 1: Republican leaders they're telling you don't get vaccinated, don't wear 501 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 1: a mask. Ah. Amikron is just a made up invention 502 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 1: by Democrats. Yeah, and I guess the whole world is 503 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:58,719 Speaker 1: in on it too. They want to talk about the 504 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 1: sanctity of fucking life. Give me a break. That is laughable. 505 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 1: I always wondered when I was in school and I 506 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 1: would see the pictures of lynchings in the history book, 507 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:24,319 Speaker 1: and you'd see these smiling white faces, the legs of 508 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:29,520 Speaker 1: a black body dangling behind them, clothes tattered, and blood 509 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:33,399 Speaker 1: everywhere as they hang and swing. And I would look 510 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 1: and I would say, who would get dressed up for that? 511 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:45,960 Speaker 1: Who are these people who would pose for a photo? 512 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:53,680 Speaker 1: What kind of animals are these? Well? Look to your left, 513 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:59,320 Speaker 1: to look to your right. We're living with their descendants. 514 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 1: I want to save your children from you know, the truth, 515 00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 1: but not guns. I want to save your kids from 516 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 1: you know, the safety of wearing a mask. But let's 517 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 1: just start sending kids to school with guns. That'll be 518 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 1: the next thing. God damn this countryman, it is fucking exhausting, 519 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:39,319 Speaker 1: fucking exhausting. That is it for me today, friends, I 520 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 1: ain't got nothing left. I mean, go for a walk. 521 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:47,080 Speaker 1: If you're listening to this while you're out for a walk, 522 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 1: stop taking the sun. Look at a Flower. Find something 523 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 1: to do today that stirs an emotion in you, that 524 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:59,680 Speaker 1: instant rage as always, dear friends, Power to the people 525 00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 1: and to all the people.
