So So anyway, so these 122 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: both of these situations oftentimes turned into something that like 123 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: I feel like this was a phrase that was a 124 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: little before my time, but we adopted it. Was like 125 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: we say, like the block is hot, you know what 126 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Which if I ran into you and you 127 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: was like and Brandon the band was like Bam was like, hey, hey, 128 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: probably what you what you're doing is what you're doing 129 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: this weekend, And I'm like, uh, man, I'll probably go 130 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,679 Speaker 1: down to you.

You might not 136 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: know about. Yes, you're gonna step on that set and 137 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: they might check you and want to claim. You know, 138 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: because that's what you do. You you never backed down. 139 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: You know, wherever you are, you can be a magic Mountains. 140 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: Somebody said where you're from, you better say it, you know. Um, 141 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: that's that's part of being in the gang. So I'm 142 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: telling you that when you go down there and you 143 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: claim on wherever it is, you can't you know, Yeah, 144 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: it's maybe maybe you should stay indoors. Yes, so here's so, 145 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: here's our terms again. We got rid or died, we 146 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: got hot, here got block, block is hot.

But 151 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: like the moments you've been pushed into fights you didn't 152 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: ask for it. I mean there's so many, right, I 153 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: mean I got I got pushed into getting jumped into 154 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: the neighborhood there we get started there like a couple 155 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: of my my friends were getting jumped in and I 156 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: was young. I was like twelve. My uncle's drunk, you know, 157 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: and and it was like you gotta be down, and 158 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: they was pushing and pushing and pushing, I mean literally pushing, 159 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: like getting that circle. We're about to get this thing popping. 160 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: So that was the first time I ever got to something. 161 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: And then when we talk about hot heads, you know, 162 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: I got a cousin and I'll say his name, and 163 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: my cousin, Ronnie.

This is 376 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: like the reality that a lot of people who didn't 377 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: grow up in our in our environment kind of helped 378 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 1: them understand what was happening, like understand the situation.

Here's here's my question. Here's my question. 389 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: With all that we know about the way Trump is 390 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: acting even among his own party, and I get it. 391 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 1: Among his party it's it's gang gang. I get it. 392 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: You can't talk out loud. Even if we talked, we 393 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: talked about that. You just gotta do it. I get it, 394 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 1: even if you disagree. I'm never gonna say the public. 395 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: But when we get home, you know what I'm saying, Parliament, 396 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: Like you know what I'm saying, Uh, but what what 397 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 1: do you think is the magic that Trump has over 398 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: his base that he's able to convince them that even 399 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,479 Speaker 1: with the impeachment, which we're gonna get to, you know, 400 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:10,479 Speaker 1: in this situation that attacks on him is an attack 401 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: on us, Like it seems to be the narrative he puts, 402 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: how like what what do you think the magic is 403 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: party with his party or even with his basse, with 404 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: his voter base, like no matter how much evidence otherwise, 405 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: that clearly these are these are choices he's making, right, 406 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,880 Speaker 1: But he's able to say when anybody pushes back on it, like, 407 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: oh they're dissing us. You know what I'm saying, Like 408 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: what do you think the magic is? Like how or 409 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: just how would you do that? How would you convince? 410 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: Mentality is him? Like he's so down for the set 411 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: he reps. She's just kind of like, well, he's saying 412 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: he's doing all this for the hood, so I just 413 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 1: want to let him. Yeah, he's doing some kind of 414 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: ill ship, but at the end of the day, he's 415 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: flying the neighborhood. So he's down, you know what I can. Yeah, 416 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: that's what his base is. And and it's it's also 417 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 1: rooted in Hella racism. I'm you know, he was he 418 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:06,719 Speaker 1: was he was the anti Obama celebrity. He was the 419 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: celebrity putting his own money up to try to discredit 420 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 1: this man. You know. So he won simply because you know, 421 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: all the races were so mad about Obama that they 422 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: were willing to put the guy who's willing to be 423 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 1: racist out front, you know, like he's willing to wear 424 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: his racism on his sleep, you know what I mean. 425 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 1: He don't hide. Um, I've heard, you know, a lot 426 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 1: of liberal pundits called him like a mob boss, you 427 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 1: know what I mean. And and and he kind of 428 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: is with with a little less intelligence and a little 429 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: less loyalty because he definitely an't got that. You don't 430 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 1: you don't keep the rules, don't write or die. He's 431 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: turned on every single person who's ever rode for him, 432 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: and which is the next thing we're gonna talk about. 433 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: But that's that's absolutely true. I think I can speak 434 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: on on a few other things too with that, where 435 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: this guy is willing to even you know, do some 436 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 1: things that we have a code against where it's like 437 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't let myself this, but he he ain't 438 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: got no code. So and at least at least if 439 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: there's somebody ain't got no code, at least they on 440 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: our side, you know what I'm saying. So yeah, right, 441 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 1: so you'll you know, like a lot of some of 442 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: the more centrists, like right leaning centrists would say where 443 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: it's like, well we just kind of held our nose 444 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: and voted for him, where it's like there's a lot 445 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 1: of stuff I don't like about him. But I mean, 446 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 1: I guess you know what I'm saying. You know, but 447 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: at some point, like both you and I know, like 448 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: we come from the thing where like there's like there's 449 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 1: a line that says even even the idea of ride 450 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 1: or die like some of that. I mean, let's be real, 451 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: like it's limited, like there are limitations, you know. In 452 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 1: some sense, it's like I know where I come from. 453 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: It's like, if you put number one the bread in danger, 454 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 1: for like, if you put the money in danger for 455 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: all of us by your actions, then like, my gu 456 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: on your own. You know what I'm saying. If you 457 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: put any of our family in danger, my g you 458 00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: on your own. You know what I'm saying. Like, there's 459 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: so there are some things that have some sort of limitations. 460 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 1: And also, I would say really interesting is when it 461 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: comes to like the evangelical base, which I'm a little 462 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: more well versed in. If you say to yourself, this 463 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: Trump is this character that's more like a he's like 464 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,439 Speaker 1: a King Cyrus or like a never Kannezzar who like 465 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: executed judgment against an evil culture, right, and like God 466 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: used this guy as a correction rod for the culture. 467 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 1: So he's gone, not he's gonna be godless. But that's 468 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 1: how God works. Sometimes God uses godless men. The problem 469 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: with that logic is like, but okay, if I'm following 470 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 1: the same story you following, didn't that mean God judging you, homie? 471 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 1: That you know what I'm saying. If you're following the story, 472 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: God was judging Israel with these people, so that means 473 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 1: that's like, why are you welcoming? I don't understand why 474 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: you think that that's in your favor. If you the 475 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 1: story you quote means that's not your favorite family, that's 476 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: your destruction. So these things, God could these things got closed? 477 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,639 Speaker 1: And what I know, and what I know, you know 478 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,880 Speaker 1: is when you start dealing with Ukrainians and Russians who 479 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: are actual gangsters, you know, saying who are actual my people? Like, 480 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: it's one thing that there's a moment where all of 481 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,679 Speaker 1: us find out whatever that situation is, which one of 482 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 1: us is like playing gangsters, which one of us really 483 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: is not afraid to shoot? You know what I'm saying. 484 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: And that's what and you know, and that's what Trump 485 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 1: keated bolstering is we got the biggest guns, you know 486 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: what I mean. That's the whole thing. And it's true. 487 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: You know, in the United States finds more on the 488 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: military than the what the top five superpowers come bind, 489 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, we spend so much on 490 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 1: military defense. As a former veteran, I know this, you 491 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,919 Speaker 1: know what I mean. You know, I remember after nine eleven, 492 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I didn't get out to 493 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: two thousand and four. The war was in full swing. Yeah. Um, 494 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 1: And I always go back to saying, like every subculture 495 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 1: when talking about game, and every subculture always reflects the 496 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: greater culture. So you know, we are born wanting to 497 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: hurt other people of color, not at all. I wasn't. 498 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 1: I wasn't born hating you talk to me, and what 499 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,959 Speaker 1: is that taught under I grew up in the eighties 500 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: when it was you know, I got a conflict with you, probably, 501 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: well what what How am I taught to resolve it? 502 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: Gonna bomb him? Yes, you know what I mean. America 503 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: has a problem with you. We're just gonna bomb you. 504 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna go to war with you. Right. America also 505 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,640 Speaker 1: does not hide the fact that it will do anything 506 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: for profit. It's profit over people. So in my small neighborhood, 507 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 1: in my small subculture, I'm gonna mimic that exact same thing. 508 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, I'll sell to whoever it is as 509 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: long as I get picked, I'll do whatever I gotta do. 510 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 1: I will do a home invasion robbery and put someone's life. 511 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: And because that's what was taught to me, I wasn't 512 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,640 Speaker 1: born with this. Like the contrary, we come from cultures 513 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 1: that are completely opposite of this. We come from cultures 514 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 1: where you don't have one parent, you got a whole 515 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: village of parents. Yeah, the city is your parents. Yeah, 516 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Your mom's frankly, whoop your ass, 517 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 1: and you just gotta deal with the true story has happened. Yeah, 518 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: so so you know, on on this podcast, I also 519 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: want to make that that that's my stance as well, 520 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 1: is that just once you recognize that, oh ship, I'm 521 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 1: following the wrong ship, then you start to kind of 522 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 1: check your own stuff start a minute, you know what 523 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 1: I mean. Our subcultures is not you know, we always 524 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: feel like we were born into this beef, like beef 525 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: was here before us, which is true especially in the 526 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: black and and and Chicano community who have been here 527 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: longer than the Filipino community in the Southeast Asian. These 528 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: are historical beefs that are real. It's not just a 529 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: bunch of kids who just you know, we just don't 530 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 1: like the color that's you want to whittle our ship 531 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 1: down to. And really these are concrete deeps and unfortunately 532 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 1: we're taught to resolve it the way America was absolutely 533 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And so all that goes. 534 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: And then now we got a millennial gangster in the house. 535 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 1: We got a Twitter gangster now. And that's that's what 536 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 1: gang banging has become. Like. You know, I look on Instagram. 537 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: I see these little kids flagging and you know every round, 538 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: now guy is a blood and become from a time 539 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: where you didn't just come out like it wasn't until 540 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 1: the Peace Treaty that motherfucker started saying that, oh I'm 541 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: a crib stoo dog didn't come out.

But even then there was 546 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: still you still had to you know, if you really 547 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: you couldn't just say these things, just say it now, 548 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, all I gotta say it is 549 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: Takashi six nine, that that's Donald Trump, And that's that's 550 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: what that is. That that culture, that same culture that 551 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: burns to Kashi six nine probably just wanted to, you know, 552 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: make a little bit of money. He didn't care how 553 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: he did it.

Right in the same way, 573 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: I feel like we're gonna get into this this left 574 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: partner's uh interview that he just had where he did. 575 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I've never seen nobody testify since Nino Brown 576 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: and New Jack City. Ain't nobody testified that, right? Yes, him, 577 00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: that dude right so so in his testimony, he you know, 578 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: he it's there's a few things. It's like I feel 579 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: like he talked about Mike Pence knowing exactly what was 580 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: going on. And I feel like Mike Pence in this 581 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: scenario is Takashi six Nines where he's just like, look, man, 582 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: I just wanted to be in the White House. Uh, 583 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 1: I ain't know this one Like, I'm gonna give him 584 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: that that he was. He was probably just just wanted 585 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,239 Speaker 1: to sit at the cool kids table. It didn't know 586 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 1: he was a part of the hustle. Because what one 587 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: thing Left Partner said was like, listen, how I how 588 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: I got my credibility was because Rudy said, Rudy on 589 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: speaker phone was like, hey, this guy, this guy right here, 590 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: Left Partners, he speaks for me and the president. So 591 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: he running in the room and he say, hey, listen, 592 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: unless you'll do anything about this, unless you'll run this Joe, 593 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: this Joe Biden thing, Mike Pence ain't coming he's not 594 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:51,959 Speaker 1: gonna come to you. He's not gonna come to your 595 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: inaugurgation unless you run this Joe Biden thing, you know. 596 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: Ukraine like, okay, we can't mess up our bag here 597 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: because we still beat from show and it's not like 598 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: we could keep up with this. So like, I don't 599 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: want to make y' all mad, but what you're asking 600 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: me to do is crazy, Like I can't. I just 601 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: I can't be a part of that. Right left tells 602 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: Rudy like, hey, they said no. Rudy was like, okay, 603 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 1: I got you. The next day canceled Mike Pence's trip. 604 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: Right So now Ukraine like damn, he really you really 605 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: did it, you know, saying so that means like okay, 606 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: so then so then but then he flies to Poland. 607 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: So then they fly, they fly, Mike Pence to Poland. 608 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: Mike Pennce talking about like, yo, I ain't know none 609 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: of this what's going on right now, Here's here's what 610 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: I think. And that's just me using my hood Antennis, 611 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: Here's what I think I think. Mike Pence was probably like, 612 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: tell me exactly only what I need to know. Don't 613 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: tell me nothing else, Just tell me exactly what I 614 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: need to know so that when the police come, I 615 00:31:55,560 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: can honestly say I don't know he's else. Yeah, so 616 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: he's sitting in Poland not knowing he's a bargaining chip. 617 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 1: According to him, Left Partners is like, there's no way 618 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 1: in the world that man ain't know, you know. So 619 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: essentially Left started singing you know what I'm saying. Le 620 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: basically he broke the code. He was like, look, let 621 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: me tell you what's happening. I'm already out on bail. 622 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: Well I'm going to jail anyway. Look here, Rudy knew 623 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: what was happening. It was all because Trump said to 624 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 1: do this. I was there only to get dirt on Biten. 625 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what. I don't know what none of 626 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: these people talking about. Here. Here's my question to you, 627 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: like using your antennas, why would Love break the code? 628 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: What you think? I mean, that's a good one. I 629 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: think that that that snitch is gonna hang out with snitches, 630 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: you know number one? Right? You know, Yeah, I don't 631 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: really have like a good answer for that.

That's probably in there, but it's deep. And 691 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 1: in the first war between Eton and edok that got 692 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: us in that was really a proxy war with Russia.
