Rights 8 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: are being taken, especially in my community, women's rights. We're 9 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 1: rolling back everything, and I think it's important when you 10 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 1: have a platform to do right by your community and 11 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 1: the people that actually follow you, that you talk about 12 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 1: the things that matter most. 13 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:41,599 Speaker 2: And I know most of you. 14 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: Out there are allies of our community or a part 15 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,200 Speaker 1: of it. And we had Jasmine Crockett on last week 16 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: to kind of just talk to us about the state 17 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: of where our government is right now with the shutdown 18 00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 1: going on and now it you know, recently being reopened. 19 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: To bring in a more culturally relevant podcaster political analysis now, 20 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: Jennifer Welsh, because I find that the way her take 21 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 1: on politics is easily digestible because it's culturally relevant. I 22 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: think she is funny. I think she is extremely intelligent. 23 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:29,119 Speaker 1: She knows what she's talking about. There's truth to her voice, 24 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: and she knows how to have a good time, and 25 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: I want to bring that voice into this show, you know, 26 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: especially now she's a neighbor. She just moved to New 27 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: York City, and I you know, I'm getting to spend 28 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: a lot of time with her, and I want you 29 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: all to be able to listen to what's going on because, 30 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: you know, with the Epstein files being released and the 31 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: world is an absolute dumpster fire right now, we need 32 00:01:57,880 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: to figure out how we're going to show up and 33 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: how we're going to move forward, how we're going to 34 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: hold people accountable, and how we're going to create a 35 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: better space moving forward that this never happens again.

When I 452 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 3: think about what's happening to the immigrant population right now, 453 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 3: hardworking people, and how they're being targeted in the racism 454 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,959 Speaker 3: towards those communities. I just feel like I would really 455 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 3: be a big miss in my life if I didn't 456 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 3: use this microphone to talk about those injustices and fight 457 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 3: for the marginalized. 458 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 1: Well, it's really I can imagine because now you're everywhere 459 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 1: you and pumps are everywhere, You're going viral.

Sophia actually just 463 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 1: moderated the VP's book tour in Toronto yesterday. 464 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 4: Oh cool, and we like to keep it in the family. 465 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,719 Speaker 1: But that's what she you know, Vice President Harris was saying, like, 466 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 1: there's no truth anywhere. That's the problem is what you know, 467 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 1: Conservatives are being dished in their algorithm versus you know, 468 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: progressive people and queer people and people who actually have 469 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: a soul.

And there's been a lot 498 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 3: of toying with that with centrist Democrats. The embarrassing part 499 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 3: for me are the centrist Democrats that I call pick 500 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 3: me democrats, where they will say we just need to 501 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 3: quit talking about trans issues. 502 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 4: That's why we lost. 503 00:27:56,359 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 3: And I just think if you cave and you try 504 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 3: to make everybody like you, and you throw a group 505 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 3: of people under the bus that are getting bullied and 506 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 3: that have very high suicide rates, I think that really 507 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 3: shows how inauthentic you are as a politician and as 508 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 3: a party. And where we're losing right now is democratic leadership. 509 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 3: And I'm talking about chuckles Shamra, I'm talking about Hakim Jeffreys, 510 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 3: and I'm talking about some other Democrats that like Corey Booker, 511 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 3: that are beholden to APAC corporations. And let me spell 512 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 3: this out for your listeners like this, because I think 513 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 3: this is very important. I think this is going to 514 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 3: be a litmus test. When I talk about Israel, I'm 515 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 3: not talking about Jewish people, and I'm not going to 516 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 3: be emotionally blackmailed by people that I can't criticize a 517 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 3: country that is governed by a war criminal that has 518 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 3: an international arrest warrant out for his arrest, that funded 519 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 3: Hamas so that he could stay in power. I am 520 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 3: not going to be told that I can't criticize that. 521 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 3: And if I criticize that, that I'm anti Semitic. That's bullshit, 522 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 3: that's emotional blackmail, and that doesn't help Jewish people, it 523 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 3: doesn't help anybody. And so think about it like this, Ashlyn. 524 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 3: Elon Musk gave Trump three hundred and thirty million dollars 525 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 3: to get him elected. Right, do you want to know 526 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 3: who else gave Trump three hundred and thirty million dollars? 527 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 3: A pack, A pack in its affiliates gave Trump three 528 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 3: hundred and thirty million dollars. Wouldn't it be disqualifying right now? 529 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 3: If Hakim Jeffries or Corey Booker or any Democratic politician 530 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 3: took money from Elon Musk, they would be kicked down 531 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 3: the river. You'd say, we want you out of our party. 532 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 3: But they take money from a pack. And if you notice, 533 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 3: these are the people that didn't endorse Zoron Mom Donnie, 534 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 3: and they didn't endorse him. From what I can see 535 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 3: is the Democrats that try to play pick me or 536 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 3: what I called controlled opposition. So they're controlled by this 537 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 3: same force that wanted Kinks to win. Why do these 538 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 3: people want Kinks to win? Because Kinks will let them 539 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 3: do war crimes. Kinks will let them do horrible things. 540 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 3: And I think it's important for the Democratic Party and 541 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 3: Zorin did this really beautifully, and I think that we 542 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 3: with microphones need to keep messaging this. Anti Semitism is 543 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 3: linked to Islamophobia, is linked to homophobia, is linked to transphobia, 544 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 3: is linked to sexism, is linked to racism. And we 545 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 3: can say for sure there's been a rise in anti semitism, 546 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 3: but I can also say there's been a rise in Islamophobia. 547 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 3: And I can also say there's been a rise in 548 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 3: misogyny and sexism. You know, just you can't hardly turn 549 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 3: on The New York Times ran an opinion piece that said, 550 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 3: did women ruin the workplace? This is the New York Times. 551 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: The shit going on there, Jennifer is crazy old right now. 552 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 3: And so we we can't prioritize anti Semitism is the 553 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 3: only form of bigotry that is important. We have to 554 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 3: make sure they're all the same and not one gets 555 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 3: preferential treatment over the other because they are all connected. 556 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 3: I think this helped keeps Jewish people safe, it helps 557 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 3: keep as long Muslim people safe, women's safe, et cetera. 558 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 3: And so I think we win when we message an 559 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 3: economic populist message plus universal human rights and as it 560 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 3: pertains to Zoron. I think the most embarrassing thing on 561 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 3: the planet is that Chuckles and Hakim, both from New York, 562 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 3: did not endorse him. 563 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 4: And maybe they're not as liberal as he is. And 564 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 4: that's fine. 565 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 3: I think they can say, Look, I agree with Zoron 566 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 3: seven out of ten things, but he won. The people 567 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 3: of New York voted for him. He kicked everybody's asks, 568 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 3: and as a Democrat, I'm endorsing him. He's a little 569 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 3: further left than me, but you know what, that's okay. 570 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 4: That's but they did do it. 571 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 3: Because of this Israel thing. And then you have like 572 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 3: the ADL, the Anti Defamation League that started this Mom 573 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 3: Dammi monitor and this guy that runs the ADL, his 574 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 3: name is, his last name is green Blatt. And it 575 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 3: just amazes me that for the ADL and for Jewish people, 576 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 3: anti semitism from a white rich supremacist named Elon Musk acceptable, 577 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,479 Speaker 3: it's acceptable, they make a carve out for it. But 578 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 3: then criticism of Israel and them killing and starving kids 579 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 3: is somehow anti Semitic, and I just I want to 580 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 3: cut through all of that. And I think the Democrats 581 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 3: need to have moral clarity on that and they need 582 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 3: to lead with that because if they don't, then grifters 583 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 3: like Marjorie Taylor Green are going to come in and 584 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 3: fill the void. And she's a very dangerous bad actor 585 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 3: that's trying to rebrand herself. 586 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: And I call bullshit on well shit, and Jasmine Crockett 587 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 1: said the same fucking thing, like we we can't forget 588 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: the core of these fucking people and what they're trying 589 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 1: to do right now. And I'm curious now because we 590 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: did have you know what was it about a week 591 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 1: and a half, two weeks ago, Now we swept a 592 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: lot of voting, like the Democrats. Do you think people 593 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: are waking the fuck up? Do you think people are 594 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: seeing now what is at stake, what this has costed us, 595 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: and how this is going to take a long fucking 596 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:31,959 Speaker 1: time to fix. 597 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 2: Do you think people get it when you. 598 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: Look at those initial reactions from the voting people. 599 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 4: I do. 600 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 3: I think when you look at what happened with Kamala 601 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 3: and Trump, the base didn't show up, and now they're 602 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 3: realizing that that apathy or the not voting, you know, 603 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 3: was incredibly problematic. You also have independence that are flipping. 604 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 3: You also have the Latinos for Trump that for some reason, 605 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 3: I guess they didn't see at the RNC the huge 606 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 3: signs that said mass deportations now and maybe thought that 607 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 3: that wasn't going to impact their communities. And so I 608 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 3: do think that there's a mass wake up to this. 609 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 3: I also think, and I think this is really important 610 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 3: for your listeners to understand. I believe that the support 611 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 3: that we all feel from Maga online is manufactured. Look 612 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 3: at all of the people that own all of these 613 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:33,399 Speaker 3: websites that were on Musk, Zuckerberg, Larry Ellison, etc. 614 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,919 Speaker 4: They have bought farms that amplify all this Maga shit. 615 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 3: And Maga is real and there are real Maga people 616 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,760 Speaker 3: out there, and I can tell you from just moving 617 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 3: from Oklahoma to here. And they're fucking crazy for sure, 618 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 3: these Triple Trumpers. But I do believe that there are 619 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 3: far more of us than there are of them, and 620 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 3: I do think that. 621 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 4: It's on its last leg. 622 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 3: Ye has for a dictator, he has to be the 623 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 3: strong man and he has to emit this strength. And 624 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 3: let's talk about Kink's current physical manifestation. We have bruses 625 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 3: on the hand that he has to cover up with cosmetics, Meanwhile, 626 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 3: he's anti drag. He wears, you know, the makeup, the 627 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 3: lack of blending is getting worse and wild than man. 628 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,839 Speaker 3: Boobs are saggier than I've ever seen. The cankles are 629 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 3: out of control. He brags openly about being able to 630 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 3: identify an elephant on a piece of paper and said 631 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 3: he wanted to challenge AOC to a cognitive test. And 632 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 3: just a couple of days ago Ashland, somebody in Air 633 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 3: Force one asked him the MRI that you received, what 634 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 3: was that on your brain? And he said he couldn't remember. 635 00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 3: So we've got a dementia ridden cankles Mctaco Tits, who 636 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 3: we refer to as canks, who is a frail senior citizen. 637 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 3: And have you seen that man out of drag? Have 638 00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 3: you seen it? 639 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's painful. 640 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 3: He really looks like shit shitagap and the orange hair 641 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 3: actually improve and I didn't think that would be possible. 642 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,240 Speaker 3: That actually makes him look better. I kind of understand 643 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 3: why he does it. 644 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 1: Now, stay tuned, I'll be back in just a moment 645 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 1: after this brief message from our sponsors. 646 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,359 Speaker 2: So, speaking of. 647 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 1: Things that have been trending lately, did you hear the 648 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: Michelle Obama quote when people keep asking her about, well, 649 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: what does it look like for you in politics? Would 650 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: you ever run to be, you know, a president or 651 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 1: whatever it is, And she said, listen, y'all aren't ready 652 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 1: for a female president, so miss me with the bullshit 653 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: and stop wasting my time, which I love too, because 654 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 1: she cuts through the noise. 655 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,720 Speaker 2: She's not playing around. That woman is extremely. 656 00:36:55,160 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: Smart and she knows exactly the landscape of this country. 657 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 1: And she said it, don't fucking waste my time with 658 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: this bullshit. When y'all are ready to have a female president, 659 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 1: we can talk. And I'm curious of what you think 660 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: about that, because it has been heartbreaking as a woman, 661 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 1: especially a queer woman, these last two elections. I really thought, 662 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 1: I'm really, Jennifer, I really fucking thought we were gonna 663 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,879 Speaker 1: win and we were gonna see this in our lifetime 664 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:33,759 Speaker 1: and we were gonna have a woman leading this country, 665 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 1: and fuck have we fallen short? And now I'm just 666 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 1: I'm curious for what your thoughts are on this. 667 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:43,720 Speaker 2: Are we ready? 668 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,919 Speaker 1: Is this fucking country ready for a woman to lead? 669 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: Or we're still not even close. 670 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 3: I have this horrible I hate to be this guy 671 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,360 Speaker 3: at the Garden Party Ashland. 672 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 4: But I have this horrible thought. 673 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 3: And you remember when Nikki Haley ran in the primary 674 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 3: and she got some good votes, and now she's just quiet. 675 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 3: I think that broad is going to come out, and 676 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:16,160 Speaker 3: I am terrified that the first female president might be 677 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 3: a conservative. 678 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 2: Oh god, no. 679 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 3: And I know that's probably just me living in the 680 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 3: Trump era. I think that there's some ways we have to. 681 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 4: Look at it. 682 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 3: Both Kamala and Hillary ran in the middle, and they 683 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 3: played the pig me Democrat, took corporate donations and they 684 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,560 Speaker 3: didn't offer And I voted for both of them, and 685 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 3: I would have been tickled pink. But we have to 686 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 3: be constructive in criticizing what errors our party made. I 687 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 3: think if Kamala would have come out of the gates 688 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:53,280 Speaker 3: and been more critical of Joe Biden and more critical 689 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 3: of his foreign policy. But what made her such a 690 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,360 Speaker 3: good vice president would have made her a good isn't it. 691 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 3: She was so disciplined and she was so loyal. I 692 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 3: think if we have a woman that came out and 693 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:13,839 Speaker 3: ran on economic populism, on universal human rights, I think 694 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,439 Speaker 3: a woman could win. I do think a woman could 695 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 3: win in this country. I think The problem with the 696 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:24,919 Speaker 3: Democratic Party with Hillary and Kamala was that they were 697 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:31,320 Speaker 3: too centrist. And I think that there's this whole thing 698 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 3: that Democrats play if I'm a centrist and some of 699 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 3: these Republicans are going to vote for me, And I'll 700 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 3: tell you when I knew Kamala was going to lose. 701 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 3: It was when she started trotting around with Liz Cheney. 702 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,400 Speaker 3: I told Pumps, I said she's going to lose. She 703 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 3: was like, how could you say that? How could you 704 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:50,399 Speaker 3: say that? And I said nobody. These Republican women are 705 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,439 Speaker 3: not going to vote for her because she's walking around 706 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 3: with Liz Cheney. The will their husbands will say, if 707 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 3: you want that new perse, you better vote for Trump 708 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:00,120 Speaker 3: or we're going to be broke, and they will do 709 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,399 Speaker 3: exactly what their husbands say, because it's all for these 710 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 3: country club Republicans. And that's what that Liz Cheney thing was. 711 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 3: And I knew if you're trying to get these people 712 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 3: to flip, you're trying to get the wrong people out. Instead, 713 00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,439 Speaker 3: she should have played through the base. And of course 714 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 3: it's easy to Monday morning quarterback, and she ran an 715 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 3: incredible campaign in one hundred and seven days but we 716 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 3: have to as we move forward, how do we win? 717 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,719 Speaker 3: And I mean a pardon me, thinks, okay, let's run 718 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:32,359 Speaker 3: Andy Bursheer, white Christian right out a central casting choir boy. 719 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 3: But then I think, okay, look at what Zoran just did, 720 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:40,399 Speaker 3: and he spoke honestly to people, and. 721 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 4: He had all the packs. 722 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 3: All the billionaires spent like I think I read like 723 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 3: ten billionaires spent like twenty four to twenty five million, 724 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 3: and they lost, you know, Andrew Cromo got his ass 725 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 3: beat twice twice. And so then I think, you know what, 726 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,920 Speaker 3: let's just have a really robust primary. Maybe it's a one, 727 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 3: but I think the litmus test for the Democratic Party 728 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,800 Speaker 3: moving forward is if you take corporate donations, specifically for MAYPAC. 729 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,320 Speaker 3: I think the base is not going to be forgiving 730 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 3: no matter what state you're in. 731 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,760 Speaker 2: And it's toxic. I totally agree. And and in your mind, 732 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 2: who would you like to see? Who would you like 733 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,239 Speaker 2: to see running this country? 734 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 1: Like if you could pick anyone, like, who do you 735 00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 1: see right now that that have the tools and more importantly, 736 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:29,840 Speaker 1: have the fucking backbone? 737 00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 2: This this we fight fire with fire. 738 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 1: We're too fucking nice, We're too We're always trying to 739 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 1: play too many fucking sides and. 740 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:42,280 Speaker 2: We get we get torched in the process. 741 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:45,480 Speaker 3: I agree with you on that, Yeah, I mean think 742 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:50,040 Speaker 3: about it like this, Ashlynn, when Joe Biden Trumpet already 743 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,319 Speaker 3: won and Joe Biden was still in office before they 744 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 3: did the transition, and Joe Biden pardoned his son, and 745 00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:00,399 Speaker 3: these Democratic strategists go out on the airwave and they 746 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 3: have stage five meltdowns. I can't believe he pardoned his son. 747 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,799 Speaker 3: And I'm like, this is why we fucking lose. Motherfuckers, 748 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,840 Speaker 3: We're playing two different games. You're upset that he pardoned 749 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 3: his son. Any parent anywhere would do it because you 750 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 3: have a whack job prancing into the Oval, and he 751 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 3: will try to throw Hunter in jail just to give 752 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:19,879 Speaker 3: his rabid cult like. 753 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 4: Bass a bone. 754 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:23,759 Speaker 3: And for me, that was one of the more savage 755 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,880 Speaker 3: things Joe Biden did, and I wish he would have 756 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 3: done more of that when he was in office. But 757 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 3: I think we have to have just a total fighter. 758 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 3: I really like JB. Pritzker a lot. I like what 759 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 3: Gavin Newsom's doing. He's just he's fighting, he's fighting, he's hot. 760 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:50,359 Speaker 3: I just if somebody will just go fight. Like hell, 761 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 3: Gavin's going to have problems and headwinds with the bass, 762 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:56,759 Speaker 3: with the corporate donations, and if I'm just playing the 763 00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 3: tape through, because this last presidency, Trump's second victory has 764 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,319 Speaker 3: caused the electorate to become more educated. People are more 765 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,280 Speaker 3: political now and they're figuring out why did this happen? 766 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 3: And nobody's really tuning into mainstream media anymore, where you 767 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:15,879 Speaker 3: just get the you know, pundits that feed you. Because 768 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 3: I used to be a really good, obedient MSNBC Democrat 769 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:23,320 Speaker 3: and that's all I did. Now I'm way way further 770 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 3: to the left, and that's happened to all of us. 771 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 3: And so he's going to have problems, you know. I 772 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:33,440 Speaker 3: just I don't know who it's going to be yet, 773 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,239 Speaker 3: and I think we need to have a really robust 774 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 3: UH primary and see let them beat up on each other. 775 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 4: I mean, let's you know, and it's. 776 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 2: Going to step up. 777 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: I want I want competitors. I do too, I want 778 00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: like and I think that's Jennifer. I think that's also 779 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:54,719 Speaker 1: the issue is we don't know. I want to fucking know. 780 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 1: I want to know who's going in there blazing hot, 781 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: rolling up their fucking sleeves, ready to go to battle for. 782 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 2: Everyone. It doesn't have to. 783 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,799 Speaker 1: We have to cater to making everyone's life better. And 784 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 1: I want to know who that person is, and I 785 00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 1: worry that it might be a little difficult. So people 786 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 1: need to start rising to the occasion because so much 787 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:24,200 Speaker 1: is on the line right now. 788 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 3: You know who's darling that we had on the podcast, 789 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:27,879 Speaker 3: and you've got to go follow him. 790 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,320 Speaker 4: Actually do this, you guys, go to your TikTok. 791 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 3: And enter Wesmore whistle dance and he is the governor 792 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 3: of Maryland. 793 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 4: And he is. 794 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 3: As good licking as i'll get out, smart, compassionate, and 795 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 3: he's a great dancer. And I just remember back in seven, 796 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,399 Speaker 3: everybody thought Hillary was going to be the candidate moving 797 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 3: into eight and this young, attractive, well spoken, smart man, 798 00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 3: brock Hussein Obama ends up capturing the entire Democratic Party and. 799 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 4: It was incredible. 800 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 3: It was incredible, And so I think that something like 801 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:12,680 Speaker 3: that could happen here. But I'll tell you this, much 802 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 3: as much as I dislike corporate Democrats right now, I 803 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 3: would crawl through ten feet of concrete to vote for 804 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 3: one over a MAGA, because I know what a difference 805 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:30,640 Speaker 3: even a corporate centrist democratic politician makes in states like mine, 806 00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 3: where women that are raped have to have their rapist baby, 807 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 3: which disproportionately affects poor people, where queer kids are just 808 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 3: bullied by the government, by their churches, by their parents, 809 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:43,280 Speaker 3: by the schools. 810 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 4: It's just horrific. 811 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 2: The suicide rates are through the roof. 812 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,839 Speaker 1: And that's the worst part is the numbers don't lie, 813 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: and they still keep driving this narrative. And young kids 814 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 1: are taking their life, their lives every fucking minute, every day, 815 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:07,760 Speaker 1: every second, and they still keep going on and on 816 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:12,400 Speaker 1: and on threatening our youth. It makes no sense to me, 817 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 1: Like we were talking about fucking children, and I'm not 818 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 1: saying fifteen year old children, some as young as eleven 819 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,640 Speaker 1: years old. It's heartbreaking. 820 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,239 Speaker 3: I have some friends in Oklahoma and then I'll get 821 00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:30,920 Speaker 3: your question, really good friends of mine, and they have 822 00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 3: a trans daughter and they have completely outlawed trans care 823 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,880 Speaker 3: in the state of Oklahoma, and so she has to 824 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 3: now move her family to California because the suicide rate 825 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:48,879 Speaker 3: is so high amongst you know, trans youth. And it's 826 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:52,720 Speaker 3: just the way she's treated, not only by the government, 827 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 3: by the other people in Oklahoma, other parents. It's really abhorrent. 828 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:03,319 Speaker 3: And all of these people are huge Christians and advertise 829 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 3: their Christianity and then they just show no compassion or 830 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 3: empathy or acceptance or comfort to this wonderful family, and 831 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:18,080 Speaker 3: it's just it's really just such a sad scenario for me. 832 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:22,359 Speaker 1: It really is, like, it's just it's been really heartbreaking 833 00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 1: to be a part of the community and to see 834 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 1: what length these fucking awful humans are willing to go. 835 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:34,719 Speaker 1: And you know, that's why we keep fighting, and that's 836 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,240 Speaker 1: why we roll up our sleeves and we keep talking 837 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 1: about it and we do our part and serve our 838 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:44,920 Speaker 1: people in our community, whether they look like you, whatever. 839 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:50,320 Speaker 1: The fucking case is just showing up for people's dignity. 840 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,399 Speaker 2: We have totally lost sight of that. 841 00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 1: And sorry, the question I wanted to round everything up is, 842 00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:01,399 Speaker 1: you know, I appreciate what you do. I appreciate because 843 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,760 Speaker 1: I know it's not easy getting political, especially at this state, 844 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:08,560 Speaker 1: and the risk that comes with it, and you know 845 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 1: it brings in a lot of hate and a lot 846 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:16,400 Speaker 1: of eyeballs and you're choosing that every day, which I respect. 847 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:20,280 Speaker 1: And you stand up for the LGBTQ plus community even 848 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:24,360 Speaker 1: though you know, you're a straight white woman, and you 849 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 1: have this incredible family, these beautiful kids, and you understand 850 00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:33,680 Speaker 1: the levity and the importance of fighting for people like 851 00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 1: me and my community. And I'm grateful for that, and 852 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 1: I want you to hear from me thank you, because 853 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:40,280 Speaker 1: I know it's not easy. 854 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:42,240 Speaker 4: Thank you. 855 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,879 Speaker 3: You know it's I'll tell you where that comes from. 856 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:49,960 Speaker 3: First of all, my mother. She always was so accepting 857 00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:53,200 Speaker 3: of people. And when I was in the eighties, my 858 00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,760 Speaker 3: mother would take me to the mall it's called Crossroads 859 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 3: Mall in Oklahoma City, and we would go get perms 860 00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,000 Speaker 3: with big bangs and all that stuff. And we had 861 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:04,920 Speaker 3: a hairdresser named Roland just as gay as I'll get 862 00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:09,399 Speaker 3: out right, and my mother just loved him. And then 863 00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:11,239 Speaker 3: one day my mother picks me up from school and 864 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:14,279 Speaker 3: she said, Darling, we're going to go see Roland, but 865 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:17,200 Speaker 3: I have an announcement to make She's real dramatic my mother. 866 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 4: And I said, well, what is it? 867 00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:21,840 Speaker 3: And she said, well, Roland is now Renee and you 868 00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:27,359 Speaker 3: need to make sure you call him her. She is 869 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,520 Speaker 3: transitioning and we just need to make sure we're accepting 870 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 3: in kind. I was twelve, Okay, So this is the 871 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 3: first time I ever heard about somebody being trans. I 872 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:39,000 Speaker 3: didn't even know if that was the word. But it 873 00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:44,360 Speaker 3: wasn't a surprise to me because Roland presented very female 874 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:49,040 Speaker 3: and then definitely Renee seemed much more authentic to who 875 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 3: this person is now. And so years later I was 876 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,440 Speaker 3: out at the gay bar because I always had all 877 00:49:56,440 --> 00:50:00,040 Speaker 3: these gay guy friends, and we were out dancing and 878 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:03,640 Speaker 3: I see Renee and this is probably fifteen years later, 879 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:07,680 Speaker 3: and Renee comes up to me and she squeezes me 880 00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 3: and hugs me, and she and I was a Wollman now. 881 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:11,279 Speaker 3: But the last time she saw me, I was in 882 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:15,000 Speaker 3: junior high and she said, I can I have to 883 00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,640 Speaker 3: tell you how kind you and your mother were to me. 884 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 3: And she lost all of her clients and that's why 885 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,360 Speaker 3: we never went back to her after that, because a 886 00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:26,319 Speaker 3: lot of people wouldn't continue to go to her. And 887 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 3: she got into I think retail or something else, and 888 00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 3: it made such a difference. And this was before you know, 889 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:35,960 Speaker 3: like maybe you'd hear about this, but that was the 890 00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:40,239 Speaker 3: way this was taught to me. It was just this 891 00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:45,080 Speaker 3: is Roland now, Renee. It's not for our place to judge. 892 00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:49,120 Speaker 3: And as an atheist in the Bible bold I was 893 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 3: always so judged by these Christians for not being Christian, 894 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 3: and so I think that's why I found so much 895 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 3: community in the gay community. Because also I like fashion, 896 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 3: and I'm very shallow and potentious. 897 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:02,439 Speaker 4: Let me just get that out there. 898 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,719 Speaker 2: We do our note, we do know our fashion, honey. 899 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:07,400 Speaker 4: And so uh. 900 00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 3: But the same people that would bully me for my 901 00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:17,000 Speaker 3: beliefs bullied my gay friends, and so we were able 902 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 3: to just cut through all of that superficial. 903 00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:22,480 Speaker 4: Acts like oh God, those people. 904 00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,839 Speaker 3: And then we could we could truly be authentic. And 905 00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:28,279 Speaker 3: so it's just something that I feel really deeply in 906 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:34,440 Speaker 3: my bones about supporting marginalized groups. And I think that 907 00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:37,799 Speaker 3: using your privilege a white woman that you know, you 908 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,839 Speaker 3: look and you're like, she Republican, and I could see 909 00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,080 Speaker 3: how somebody could think that I'm kind of Republican coded 910 00:51:43,120 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 3: looking Southern accent. But it's important that we stand up 911 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:52,799 Speaker 3: for everybody, and it brings it back to that universal 912 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:57,200 Speaker 3: human rights and every single group is so worthy. 913 00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:57,799 Speaker 4: Of fighting for. 914 00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:00,319 Speaker 3: And I just still think we have so much to 915 00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:04,080 Speaker 3: do and I'm so hopeful that the pendulum, you know, 916 00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:06,759 Speaker 3: comes back, and maybe we get a woman. You know, 917 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 3: maybe the pendulum swings so far, maybe it is an AOC. 918 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 4: I would love it. I'm terrified for her if that happens. 919 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:17,440 Speaker 3: Because I'm gonna have PTSD now from women running for president, 920 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 3: like I'm sure you and the rest of the country does. 921 00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:24,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, well, Jennifer, thank you so much for coming 922 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 1: on Wide Open.
