You would expect that 220 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: from the commander in chief. Prizes here on the propaganda 221 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: side or on Trump's not knowing the rural side. 222 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 6: I mean, didn't he tell us, like people dying war 223 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 6: and like Morris coming, it's. 224 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 8: Just going to be. 225 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 7: That way was the way in which he. 226 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 6: Prepared American families and American men and women who give 227 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 6: their lives quite literally for the country and protection of 228 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 6: all of us, and hopes that when the President sends 229 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 6: you there, he's got a good reason for doing so, 230 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 6: and that hopefully that reason has something to do with 231 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 6: the safety, security of the country and our respective interests. 232 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 6: But the dignified transfer is an incredibly solemn occasion, and 233 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 6: the same flagrant way in which he talks about life 234 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 6: and other people's lives, not his, but other people's I mean, 235 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 6: that's basically what he put on demonstration, you know right there. 236 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 6: It's a shame, however, that Fox News has to cape 237 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 6: for him so hard that they literally manipulate footage to 238 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 6: make him look dignified when his true self is undignified. 239 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's not a surprise considering the length of the 240 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 5: degree in which Fox lies their viewers every day, and 241 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 5: I'm often marveled at the fact that we actually allow this. 242 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 5: The other part too. I'm gonna remember something that actually 243 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 5: George W. 244 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 3: Bush said when he was in office during the Golf War, 245 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 3: and that he stopped playing golf, and a big reason 246 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 3: why he stopped playing golf is because he didn't want 247 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,559 Speaker 3: the American people to see him playing golf while their 248 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: sons and daughters are at war, because he thought it 249 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 3: was a bad optic. If George W. Bush is saying that, 250 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 3: that makes this look even worse than it already does. 251 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. 252 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 9: I just wanted to note real quick that we're no 253 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 9: longer at six where it's seven soldiers. And I just 254 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 9: think that as we talk to our listeners about the toll, 255 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 9: it's not just the bombs that we see and the 256 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 9: fireworks in the sky. Their real lives that have been lost. 257 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 9: A lot of young people don't have a chance to 258 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 9: grow up because we're in a war that when we 259 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,680 Speaker 9: don't know why we're there truly and too, we don't 260 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 9: know how we're going to get out. 261 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 6: So got be over one hundred and six injured. They 262 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 6: were finally forced to release that information. But aside from 263 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 6: obviously the lives lost, over one hundred men and women 264 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 6: are injured as a result of this incursion, that all 265 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 6: of us are still scratching our heads trying to figure 266 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 6: out why we're there. 267 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,199 Speaker 1: Yes, I want to switch gears quickly to. 268 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 2: Again. 269 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: We said last week a broken clock is right twice 270 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: a day, but this is. 271 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 2: A really good one. 272 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: Republican Governor k Ivy showed a little bit of mercy. 273 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 1: You all may have been following the activism around Charles 274 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: sunny Burton. He was scheduled to die this week despite 275 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: not pulling the trigger in a nineteen ninety one shooting, 276 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: and the Republican governor of Alabama decided to commute his sentence. 277 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: He will still spend the rest of his life in prison, 278 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: but his family is expressing a tremendous amount of gratitude. 279 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 2: Let's roll the clip. 280 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 6: It's been a decade long fight for clemency for Burton's family. 281 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 7: What does today feel like for the family. 282 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 14: It feels over. 283 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 7: Amazing, Burton's son and daughter telling w b r C. 284 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 7: They've been praying for this day to come. 285 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 4: That's when I said, if they want to take my father, 286 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 4: I meant you and I prayed very hard. He can't 287 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 4: help my dad, and I think I think it's ivory 288 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 4: for saving and spare in his life. 289 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 14: We've been fighting this for a very long time, and 290 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 14: you know, we had our setbacks, we had our triumphs, 291 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 14: we had our setbacks, and now we just did a 292 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 14: beautiful triumph for my hard work, for my friends. 293 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 7: People weave know like it was a long it was 294 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 7: a long journ, long journey. 295 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: Well that is a somber one, bed. I mean, his 296 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: life has been spared. I don't think we should have 297 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: the death penalty any anyway. I want to hear from 298 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: y'all what you got. 299 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 9: Yeah, I got. I'll never forget this. And I don't 300 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 9: know if y'all know this, but that Angela made me 301 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 9: think about this. Kate Balwin one night or one day 302 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 9: was interviewing me after the mother Emanuel shooting about Dylan Ruth, 303 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 9: and she asked me directly on TV, how do I 304 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 9: feel about the death penalty and just losing nine people 305 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 9: that I knew? In that fashion, I was literally like, 306 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 9: I don't know. It made me question faith, It made 307 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 9: me question judgment, It made me question and then people 308 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 9: get sensationalized when they talk about the death penalty, like 309 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 9: what happens if somebody storms in the house and rape 310 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 9: your entire family and throws away your favorite all. You know, 311 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 9: it makes you, It makes you think about things in 312 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 9: a different way. 313 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 7: And so I am. 314 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 9: Still politically unsettled, although I do know that the death 315 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 9: penalty disproportionately affects people who look like Sonny. My last 316 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 9: point is you've got to always remember, particularly in the South, 317 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 9: hands of one, hands of all, if you're out. I 318 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 9: hope young people listen to this make good decisions, because 319 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 9: if you're out and somebody makes a crash, dummy decision. 320 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 7: All of y'all going away. 321 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 9: Over there on the northwest, where Angela is in California, 322 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 9: they call it fell any murder. In the South, we 323 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 9: call it hands of one, Hands of all. And so 324 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 9: many people want to know why Sonny's in the situation 325 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 9: he is, and that is the reason that he is 326 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 9: going to still serve the rest of his life in prison. 327 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, the daughter of the deceased man who was killed 328 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 6: all those years ago wrote to the governor spoke up. 329 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 6: She said, her voice as a survivor of her lost 330 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 6: loved one, should mean something, and she said, if you 331 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 6: think this is justice, this is not justice. I don't 332 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 6: believe this to be justice. Do not take this man's life. 333 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 6: Oddly enough, y'all, the man who actually pulled the trigger, 334 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 6: uh and and and uh killed the deceased, actually had 335 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 6: his his sentence was commuted. He was on death row 336 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,239 Speaker 6: and was removed. Sonny was the only one remaining on 337 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 6: death row, and he actually didn't pull the trigger. But 338 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 6: as as Bakari, our attorney resident, is pointing out, if 339 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 6: you with the people who do the crime, everybody is 340 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,360 Speaker 6: charged for the same crime. And in this case, obviously 341 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 6: it worked out for the better. But y'all, I'm just curious. 342 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 6: Angela and Bacari, our resident attorneys, like, when do we 343 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 6: see the law change so that you know that individuals 344 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 6: who didn't touch a gun didn't kill anyone. May have 345 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 6: been in a car in the commission of an act, 346 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 6: but may not have known the act was going down, 347 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 6: is prosecuted and god forbid, put on death row having 348 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 6: not even done the you know, done the deed. 349 00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 12: Uh. 350 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 6: But but this is a good this is a good 351 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 6: one for k Ivy. She did say that she did 352 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 6: this to preserve the future of the death penalty in 353 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 6: that state. 354 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: Well, and I will say, Andrew, as you know as 355 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 1: a former LAGED official, it is up to the states. 356 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: They have to decide individually what the law will be. 357 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: And that is up to the legislatures. Why it's so 358 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 1: important for us to vote. And I know you have 359 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: something on this. The Georgia special election. 360 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, so there was an election this week, y'all. Marjorie 361 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 6: Taylor Green seat down in Georgia and the most Republican 362 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 6: seat in the entire delegation from the state of Georgia. 363 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 6: And there were some positive, I think outcomes. We'll see 364 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 6: what happens in the long run. But take a look 365 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 6: at who the two finalists are and what was a 366 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 6: very crowded feel. 367 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,199 Speaker 8: Democrat Sean Harris finished as a top vote getter with 368 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 8: thirty seven percent of the vote, while Republican Clay Fuller 369 00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 8: came in second with thirty four percent. 370 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,919 Speaker 15: Well, I think you're sitting with the results tonight. The 371 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 15: voter support what President Trump is doing in an endorsement 372 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 15: our campaign, and I think the Republican Party is going 373 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 15: to unite around us because they know that the Democrat 374 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 15: is too dangerous. We can't have a Democrat representing Georgia fourteen. 375 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,120 Speaker 15: It would be a tragedy for our community. 376 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 16: I think what you're going to see here real soon 377 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 16: is people going to say what I'm going to put 378 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 16: beside this time party, I'm going to vote with us 379 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,399 Speaker 16: best for my Kris and grandkids. And that's why I 380 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 16: have nothing but confidence tonight, and I have confidence tomorrow. 381 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 7: And the day after that that. 382 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 16: More and more Democrats and Republicans and independence are going 383 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 16: to come my way. 384 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 6: So Sean Harri is there achieved actually the majority of 385 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 6: votes that were cast in that special We could all 386 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 6: pontificate about what that looks like in the final in May. 387 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 6: Most expect that that seat will remain with Republicans. But y'all, 388 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 6: it is of note that Sewan out performed how Kamala 389 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 6: Harris did in that very same district shit Chi thirty 390 00:19:59,920 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 6: one percent of the vote, he achieved thirty six percent 391 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 6: of the vote, and so even if that seat doesn't 392 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 6: come the way of Democrats, that just gives you a 393 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 6: light in inlet into how Democrats are overperforming so far 394 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 6: in these special elections. That trend continues. 395 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 1: Well, as you just noted Andrew, the race and midterms 396 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,920 Speaker 1: are in full effect, but it's not without an intense 397 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 1: redistricting battle. Up next is Virginia, with the map already 398 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,479 Speaker 1: approved by the General Assembly. That map would have ten 399 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:45,360 Speaker 1: seats that lean Democratic. Early voting has begun in Virginia, 400 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 1: and so have the Shenanigans. As we get into our 401 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: longer length topic. The response from the GOP was insane. 402 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: They sent out a civil rights based mailer, and we 403 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: have this clip from a social media the influence that 404 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: believe her name is Suzanne Lambert, who had this to 405 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: say about the mailer. 406 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 8: I was getting ready to go to the gym, which 407 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 8: is why I look like a young Justin Bieber. But 408 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 8: a follower sent me this message about a very mysterious 409 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 8: mailer that they received yesterday. There's a special election in 410 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 8: Virginia right now through April about redistricting, which we want 411 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 8: to vote yes on. 412 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,199 Speaker 17: The top line message we want to vote yes. So 413 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 17: what U to say? 414 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 8: You'll notice it says, just like Jim Crow, they want 415 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 8: to take away your voice. And you're seeing a lot 416 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 8: of Civil rights era images, presumably of black people. 417 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 17: Okay, that's important black people, because what else does it say? 418 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 8: It says our ancestors fought to represent. 419 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 17: Us our ancestors. 420 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 8: So one could safely assume, if you're looking at this flyer, 421 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 8: given that it only depicts black people, that the person 422 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 8: sending it is a black person, right or at the 423 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 8: very very least has the interest of black folks in mind, which, 424 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 8: of course makes no sense because voting yes on this 425 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 8: measure would actually protect the interests of black people, and 426 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 8: no black officials would lose their seat from their redistricting measures. 427 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 8: It would only be white people the other house to 428 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 8: include who paid for it? 429 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 6: Right? 430 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 8: So what says here paid for by Democracy and Justice Pack? 431 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,880 Speaker 8: Only problem with that Democracy and Justice Pack doesn't exist, 432 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 8: like straight up does not exist, but Justice for Democracy 433 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 8: Pack does exist, and its treasurer is listed as Christopher 434 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 8: woodfin addresses the same, Well, what do we know about 435 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 8: Christopher Woodfin On?

I assume that. 467 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 1: Maybe he's not to scale. Okay, okay, all right, you 468 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: think it was like I don't even remember when we 469 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 1: were talking. We were talking about Readish districting. Okay, Yes, 470 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,120 Speaker 1: so there's another. 471 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 7: Which is very important. 472 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 2: Yes, vote yes, vote yes, yes, they said. 473 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 1: Queen Gayleen from from Virginia says, we are telling people, 474 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: don't guess, vote yes. So they are trying to meet 475 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: the energy of Texas, North Carolina in Ohio and trying 476 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: to make sure that there is more representation in Congress 477 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: to knock out all of what they tried to do 478 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 1: with Midtermy districting. What I think is really crazy about 479 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 1: this mailer, y'all is it literally has? 480 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 2: I mean, hopefully we can pull the images up. 481 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 1: I think I sent them to just like Jim Crow, 482 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 1: they want to silence your voice. And then this black 483 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: man there, it is this black man who used to 484 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 1: be in the Virginia House of Delegates says that this 485 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: was him although we just saw him and unless he 486 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: is transracial, that was not him. And also he would 487 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: have gained several hundred pounds to be that man that's 488 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: in that picture responsible for this mailer. 489 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 2: So I just I think that it's fascinating. Our ancestors 490 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 2: fought to represent us. That's right. 491 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: The people who have this mailer out are the descendants 492 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: of the seventeen seventy six ers. We, however, are the 493 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 1: descendants of sixteen nineteen, and it's not our ancestors. Our 494 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,199 Speaker 1: ancestors wildest dreams would be that we could vote and 495 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 1: we would be represented in the House, among other places. 496 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 1: I want to roll this clip for you all to 497 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: react to.

His name is Don Scott, and he had 499 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: this reaction to this crazy mailer, which I think we 500 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: need to highlight. 501 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 18: I love, folks, when I see people sending mailers using 502 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 18: images from the civil rights movement, brave men and women 503 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 18: facing down the KKK, people who launched, who bled, who 504 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 18: died for the right to vote, to try to trick 505 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 18: black voters in Virginia. 506 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 7: I take that very personally. 507 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 18: The civil rights movement is not a problem, and for 508 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 18: them to do that and then to try to bring 509 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 18: in another black man after the fact to say that 510 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 18: he was involved with it when we know for a fact. 511 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 7: That was not the case. They brought him in after 512 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 7: the fact. 513 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 18: The blood and sacrifice of those who fought for the 514 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 18: right to vote belongs to all of us, and it 515 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 18: will not be hijacked by anonymous MAGA line political operatives 516 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 18: trying to deceive our communities. And let's be clear about 517 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 18: what's really happening here. Donald Trump put us all in 518 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 18: this position. Donald Trump and Republican legislatures across the country 519 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 18: are trying to rig the mid term elections because they 520 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 18: know that policies are so unpopular, no one in their 521 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,440 Speaker 18: right mind would continue to support them. 522 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: So y'all that I think that's the part for me, 523 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,360 Speaker 1: and I want to I do want to hear from y'all, 524 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: but I just got to say, I believe there's a 525 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: special place in fiery hell for coonery, and I would 526 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: like to show that this is the coon around I'm 527 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: talking about moves behind an anti redistrict and flyer in 528 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: voking Jim former go Op delegate.

And unfortunately, we have a public that, 547 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 3: because of the day to day challenges of life and 548 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 3: just trying to put food on the table, have a 549 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 3: livable wage, put a roof over their head, that things 550 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 3: like this are very easy to fall for. I mean, 551 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,119 Speaker 3: and especially now that we've sort of programmed people to 552 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 3: try to look out for coming to you online, because 553 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 3: we know that communities of color are definitely targeted with 554 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 3: misinformation and disinformation online and so people tend to not 555 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 3: do have the same level of skepticism when it comes 556 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 3: to the mailers and the television commercials which we have 557 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 3: seen in many elections have a deep impact and influence 558 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 3: on how people vote. 559 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 5: So I'm glad that the attention is being drawn. But 560 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 5: the part that I'm worried about is how many people 561 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 5: will already have fallen for this, and whether or not 562 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 5: they will receive the proper and correct information to know 563 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 5: how to vote accordingly. 564 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 9: I think Jamil's first point was just brilliant because I 565 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 9: say something similar when you oftentimes, because I don't know 566 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 9: how many of. 567 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 7: You all have seen, and I challenge you all. 568 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 9: I was watching it some this morning, but the deposition 569 00:28:55,360 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 9: from the DOGE employees, and they just they really just 570 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 9: fell apart when they would question about about d I 571 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 9: just about any of the beliefs right. And so when 572 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 9: you challenge conservatives on things like this on ideas, usually 573 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,719 Speaker 9: you find out that you can win on that playing 574 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 9: field because they understand even that their ideas are not 575 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 9: better for the country black, white, poor otherwise. The other 576 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 9: thing is if your vote wasn't so important, people wouldn't 577 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 9: work so damn hard to take it from you. And 578 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 9: that's what we're seeing day in and day out. But 579 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 9: I'm glad that the battlefield is in Virginia. Because my 580 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 9: favorite elected official in the entire country. I know that 581 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 9: it's weird. People will be like y'all are in politics 582 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 9: too deep when you have like a favorite elected official, 583 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 9: but like you know, her picture is I send her 584 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 9: picture to folk. 585 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 7: But Senator Louise Lucas, l Louise Lucas, I don't know 586 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 7: if y'all know. 587 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 9: Years old, graduated from Norfolk State twice and will tell 588 00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 9: you about yourself. I mean, she single handedly stop the 589 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 9: redskin what do they call the commanders commanders, you know, 590 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 9: from coming out there and taking advantage of her constituents, 591 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 9: and she's helping along with the Speaker of the House, 592 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 9: fight back. And I just think that this is the 593 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 9: place where I'm glad this I'm glad this battle is 594 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 9: taking place because you're seeing what happens when you have smart, 595 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 9: very talented, particularly black folk in leadership position able to 596 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 9: fight back. And so I have confidence with when last 597 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 9: point is, we've always had obstacles. Life folk have always 598 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,959 Speaker 9: had obstacles, whether or not as Georgia, whether or not 599 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 9: it's this, whether or not it's the same, you know, 600 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 9: let America, and it didn't matter, We're still going to 601 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 9: come out and vote in extremely high numbers and overcome this. 602 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 7: And I do believe that this will pass with a yes. 603 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 6: Yeah. In my race for governor, they did phone calls 604 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 6: into black households telling them the wrong date of the election, 605 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 6: giving them the date beyond the election to go. Don't forget. 606 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 6: We need to have his back, you know, this sort 607 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 6: of coon talking, you know, menstrual voice on the other end. 608 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 6: And I will tell you there's often debate around whether 609 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 6: or not we should highlight these things. If we should 610 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 6: talk about them, does it serve the purpose or do 611 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 6: the work for the opposition, for our community to lift 612 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 6: up what the myriad strategies might be to keep us 613 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 6: from and hassles that you might have to encounter in 614 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 6: order to get your vote cast and also count it. 615 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 6: But I got to tell you we have a resilient community. 616 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 6: We have a resilient constituency. They are mature adults enough 617 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 6: to hear the truth. God knows. I would prefer them 618 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 6: getting a forecast of what to expect when they go 619 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 6: vote from us, rather than showing up and seeing armed 620 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 6: you know, military armored vehicles outside of polling places. So 621 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 6: I just, I just I hope for those who are 622 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 6: still arguing, let's not talk about these distracts actions. Let's 623 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 6: not talk about what the Republicans are going to do, 624 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 6: because we may inadvertently suppress our own vote, because people 625 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 6: may just decide, Look, I don't want to put up 626 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 6: with that, so I'm not going to participate. I think 627 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 6: people draw the exact opposite conclusion when you work so hard, 628 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 6: as Baccari pointed out, to keep me from voting and 629 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 6: keep my vote from mattering, but I'm sleeping outside the poll. 630 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 6: We are organizing a sleepout before election day. But I 631 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,239 Speaker 6: think we gotta highlight these things so that folks have 632 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 6: a real sense of the mystery and mischief the other 633 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 6: side is going to be up to nobody knows. 634 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 2: You know. 635 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 1: The other thing that I think is important to bring 636 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: into this mix. We're talking about redistricting efforts in Virginia, 637 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: of course, but we also can't turn a blind eye 638 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: to some of the tactics that the Trump administration have 639 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 1: turned to within the last couple of months. So we 640 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 1: know in January, at the end of January, the FBI 641 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 1: went to raid Fulton County's voting records from twenty twenty 642 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 1: as if to give Donald Trump any credibility to what 643 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: he was alleging, then also seeking out votes, which we 644 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: know Fannie, our dear sister Fannie Willis was working on 645 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: trying to prosecute him for the election fraud he was 646 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 1: actually committing. But at the end of January, authorities see 647 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: seven hundred boxes. Seven hundred boxes related to an election 648 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: six years ago. There is nothing to look for from 649 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:41,239 Speaker 1: six years ago except for intimidation of voters in a 650 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: very very important election in Georgia, as we know coming up. 651 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: It's important everywhere, but it's particularly important in Georgia because 652 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: we have the opportunity to hold. 653 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 2: The Senate to elect a new governor or not. 654 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: So seven hundred boxes related to this probe all in 655 00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: Fulton County. 656 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 2: Who's in Fulton County? Y'all? Okay? 657 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: And then the Homeland Security Oh, by the way, by 658 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: the way, the FBI field agent in charge, his name 659 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:16,799 Speaker 1: was Paul Brown, I believe was fired for expressing concerns 660 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 1: about this FBI raid. So I also want to make 661 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: be clear about that if you're not a yes man 662 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 1: or a yes woman for Trump, you gotta go. So 663 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 1: then after that they went to Arizona. Guess where they 664 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 1: went to Arizona, Miracpa, Maricopa County. Who's in Maricopa ain't 665 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: no white people. So I just I want to point 666 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: this out. This is over, you know again, the twenty 667 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: twenty election results all from a debunked claim that there was, uh, 668 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:52,280 Speaker 1: there was election fraud happening there. The former attorney general 669 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 1: in Arizona looking into this, and of course it's been 670 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: a debunked, debunk claim. 671 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 6: So anyway, I don't even think it's about I don't 672 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 6: think it's a I don't think this is a rewind 673 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 6: to the last election. I think you doubt this is 674 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:12,240 Speaker 6: pretext for this is them trying to push the limits 675 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 6: of their authority to show the American people what they 676 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 6: have the capacity to do. What courts will step in 677 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 6: to keep them from seizing ballots, What courts will keep, 678 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 6: you know, stop them from going and seizing voting machines 679 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 6: on the evening of elections when those machines should be 680 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 6: counting votes and sending them directly to the headquarters and 681 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 6: counties all across the country. I think they are here 682 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:38,399 Speaker 6: testing the limits of not their authority, because they don't 683 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:41,359 Speaker 6: have the authority to do this. They're testing the they're 684 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 6: testing the limits of who gonna check me, who's going 685 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,879 Speaker 6: to stop me? And with what military are they going 686 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 6: to do it with. So I again, when we talk 687 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 6: about the things that we should just anticipate, be prepared 688 00:35:54,560 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 6: for Democrats, anyone who cared a democrats democracy, see loving person, 689 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,760 Speaker 6: Please please please don't handle this like we might address 690 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 6: the normal rigors of a of a of an inquisition 691 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 6: reasonable in nature, even if we disagree with the outcomes. 692 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 6: This is not what this is. This is authoritarianism at 693 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 6: its at its alphabet, at its dictionary described level. Being 694 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 6: persecuted by Trump and all of his SIKA fans. There 695 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 6: are no check people to keep him from doing this. 696 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,440 Speaker 6: He wanted to seize the ballots last time, and fortunately 697 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 6: there were people like Kelly in places said nah, we 698 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,839 Speaker 6: can't do that. The Attorney general of the country who 699 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 6: did that. Now, who thinks Pam Bondy is going to 700 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 6: stand in front of Donald Trump and say no to anything? 701 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 6: Nobody we know, nobody. 702 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 5: We know that's not happening. 703 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 3: But I think it gets to what really is the 704 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 3: soft spot in our democracy, and that is we continue 705 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 3: to forget that the democracy only stands as much as 706 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 3: the people willing to actually protect it. And what we know, 707 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 3: definitely knew from what happened previously, was that if not 708 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 3: for Mike Pence, you know, by the thinnest, thinnest of margins, 709 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 3: did things hold together. 710 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 5: And so when you lose, or when the people who 711 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 5: are supposed to protect the democracy no longer do, the 712 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:26,280 Speaker 5: institution is not going to defend itself. And many people 713 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 5: knew that this version of Trump would be far more 714 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 5: dangerous because he was going to have those sick of 715 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,240 Speaker 5: fans you talked about, who do not believe in actual governance, 716 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 5: who do not believe in the rule of law, who 717 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,799 Speaker 5: do not believe in a certain decorum that should be 718 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,880 Speaker 5: part of politics. Because as much as I hated as 719 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,439 Speaker 5: last administration, this one is like, this makes the last 720 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 5: one look like child's play. And the difference is this 721 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 5: time around they don't believe in those things that they're 722 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 5: willing to do whatever the king wishes. And so I 723 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 5: think what is frightening for me is that I don't 724 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 5: think the American people are actually alarmed enough that I 725 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,760 Speaker 5: get it, Like a lot of people are dealing with shortbandwidth. 726 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 5: They have already said their intention was the flood zone 727 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 5: with hourly horrors of which we're like what and to 728 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,440 Speaker 5: the point where you feel hopeless. But I think they're 729 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 5: playing largely works because when I see things like what 730 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:21,879 Speaker 5: is embolding in Georgia and Arizona, and that yes, there's 731 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 5: outrage among those who pay attention, but the people who 732 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:26,720 Speaker 5: really need to be outraged. 733 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 3: And paying attention are just kind of in this web 734 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 3: of I don't even know what to do in this moment, 735 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 3: and that to me, it's the apathy that worries me. 736 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 7: Sure three quick points. 737 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 9: I think that we're overlooking the psychopathy of the president 738 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 9: of the United States. So I disagree with Andrew just 739 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 9: slightly because I do think that a lot of this 740 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 9: is done because the president believes he won the election 741 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,839 Speaker 9: in twenty twenty, and so I think that he is 742 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 9: asking people to go out and kind of do this 743 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 9: excursion into finding him the votes, which we all know 744 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 9: doesn't exist. But I also think that you're right, Andrew 745 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:07,960 Speaker 9: on the back part, because I do think that there 746 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 9: are people around the president, the Stephen Miller's, the Bannons, 747 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 9: et cetera, that want to exploit that underbelly, and what 748 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 9: they're saying is, look, we are not going to wait 749 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:23,280 Speaker 9: until six years later. If we don't like the results 750 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:27,800 Speaker 9: of Arizona, we're going to take those ballots before they're countant, 751 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 9: or after their accountant, or whenever the hell we want to. 752 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:32,879 Speaker 9: Then were just going to figure out how to count them, 753 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,840 Speaker 9: and we we gonna count them and one or basically, 754 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 9: we'll ask Donald Trump how much you want to win 755 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 9: by today? 756 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 6: So I need you to find me y'ah. 757 00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 7: Eleven thousand, right, I need you to I want to 758 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 7: win by I want to win by twelve points, right. 759 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 7: So I think that that's a part of it as well. 760 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 7: And I don't I just don't think. 761 00:39:54,800 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 9: I just don't think that we have the urgency one 762 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 9: and people don't understand how to fight back too. And 763 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,359 Speaker 9: I'm it's hard because we don't have a fighter yet 764 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,439 Speaker 9: in the ring. I guess this is where Andrew would 765 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 9: be like Macari, we don't need a fighter in the ring. 766 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 7: This is about democracy. The people can do it. 767 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 6: Hey, Minnesota showed us. 768 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 7: In Minnesota showed us. You're right. 769 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,319 Speaker 9: I just think I wish we had a fighter in 770 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:24,719 Speaker 9: the ring too. But I guess that time will come 771 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 9: soon that we're all going to have to rally around 772 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,600 Speaker 9: somebody who at the very fundamental portion of their life 773 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 9: is pro democracy. 774 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 6: I hope it's not a person. I really hope it is. 775 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 6: And I honestly think Minnesota is a blueprint in the 776 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 6: sense that when people see the threat at their doorstep, 777 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,799 Speaker 6: there's a red line and they're saying, you're not going 778 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,799 Speaker 6: to cross it here. So if it's in my community, 779 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,840 Speaker 6: this is not some esoteric I believe the talking points 780 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 6: that he's looking back sixty years to see whether or 781 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,839 Speaker 6: not he won or not. This is me saying no, 782 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 6: right now, this man is trying to take say it again. 783 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 3: Isn't that bad because by the time it gets to 784 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 3: your doorstep, it is too late. 785 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 6: No, I think this is going to be real time shit. 786 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 6: I think that they I think we're going to be 787 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 6: traumatized by the swiftness and by the audacity of what 788 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 6: they're going to attempt on election day and the ten 789 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 6: days leading up to election day for early voting states, 790 00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 6: and then the way in which they're going to assault 791 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 6: the court courts. But mostly they're going to assault public opinion. 792 00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 6: They're going to get out there and they're going to say, 793 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 6: remember back then, when the Cab County stole all those 794 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 6: votes and we had to take those ballots. Remember when 795 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 6: the Latinos allowed fifty thousand immigrants across the border so 796 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 6: they could vote that day. I think this is going 797 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 6: to be head on a swivel type stuff, and it's 798 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:52,359 Speaker 6: going to require us to have not a knee jerk, 799 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 6: but I mean unprecedented levels of response to them stealing 800 00:41:58,640 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 6: what is that lection? 801 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 7: That's the quest? 802 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 6: Well up two thousand in Florida. I was here for that. 803 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,920 Speaker 6: I mean, you couldn't keep us down. We were down 804 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 6: at that We were down at the Capitol and at 805 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 6: the Sties States Office. It was mayhem, complete and total mayhem. 806 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 7: Narrator states. We still lost, and I think. 807 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 6: We lost a five to four, We lost a five 808 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 6: to six or what was it, a seventh four four to. 809 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 1: The Supreme Court. I think here's the here's the point 810 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 1: that I want to raise in this moment. What is 811 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:36,280 Speaker 1: scary to me is that during the country's two hundred 812 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 1: and fiftieth anniversary year, we are now at a place 813 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 1: we were fighting for the fundamental right to vote, fundamental 814 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 1: access to the ballot box, whether or not our ballot 815 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 1: should be counted. Who was making a very partial determination 816 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: about who gets to have their say, And we've already 817 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:54,919 Speaker 1: had that battle. We had it in the Constitution, there's 818 00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: an amendment for that. We had it in the nineteen 819 00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 1: sixty five Voting Rights Act, in every authorization after that. 820 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 1: So I'm just saying that at some point, the law 821 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 1: of the land should stand. Whether you're mad about a 822 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:11,719 Speaker 1: black president winning the election or not. All of this 823 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 1: shifted again to partisanship after Barack Obama won the election, 824 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: and I think that until this country is willing to 825 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 1: come to terms with its ugly history, the fact that 826 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:27,319 Speaker 1: the vestiges of slavery are alive well and present, like, 827 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 1: we are going to continue to repeat this, And so yes, 828 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:33,239 Speaker 1: we should fight, but also we do need fighters. The 829 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 1: fighters need to show up. This should be something that 830 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 1: is talked about consistently. I'm gonna tell y'all because I 831 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:40,840 Speaker 1: started talking about Reverend Jackson at the beginning. 832 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 2: I used to get so mad sometimes. 833 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:46,840 Speaker 1: When no matter what we were talking about, somewhere Reverend 834 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,719 Speaker 1: Jackson got on the stage and he always brought up 835 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 1: the right to vote. 836 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 2: And I'd be like, we're fine, we're voting. 837 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 7: We just bought it. 838 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 2: Were good, you know, And now this is pre two 839 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 2: thousand and eight. 840 00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 1: By the time twenty ten and the Tea Party rode around, 841 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,879 Speaker 1: I was like he might be onto something. When voter 842 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 1: ID and all the suppressive measures that they introduced in 843 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 1: state legislatures all throughout the country, cutting back early voting days, 844 00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,360 Speaker 1: figuring out how to have voter ID, it's just an idea. 845 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,360 Speaker 2: You have to have idea to get on a plane. 846 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:16,400 Speaker 1: Everybody don't fly right, Everybody don't Everybody don't live right 847 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:17,400 Speaker 1: down the street from. 848 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,280 Speaker 2: A Department of Licensing or DMV. 849 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,279 Speaker 1: Everybody can't afford a passport or to get a new 850 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:26,720 Speaker 1: birth certificate. Like, we have a privileged way of thinking 851 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 1: about this, and it is suppressive and harmful to our 852 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,040 Speaker 1: elders who fought the very fight for us. And yes, 853 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 1: it is frustrating to have to have this fundamental conversation, 854 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 1: especially when there are people in our communities who are like, 855 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 1: I would love to talk to you about voting, but 856 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 1: I can't feed my kids tomorrow. We have to be 857 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 1: able to walk and chew gum at the same time. 858 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:46,240 Speaker 2: Hell to something. 859 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,799 Speaker 1: We got to be able to meet people's basic needs. 860 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,440 Speaker 1: But also this is a basic and fundamental right. It 861 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 1: should be constitutionally protected in ways that it's clearly not 862 00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:00,239 Speaker 1: because our Supreme Court is willing to throw everything in 863 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 1: the balance. 864 00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,959 Speaker 9: So andew you preach we need to clip that, because 865 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 9: that's that's fire there and true. But let me also 866 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 9: tell you why we in this situation. The reason we're 867 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 9: in this situation is because we never punished the Confederates. 868 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 9: I remind amen, Amen, I remind people of that all 869 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 9: the time. The most trees in this group of people 870 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 9: we've ever had walked the country, we never punished them. 871 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,919 Speaker 9: The same people who brought us Jim Crow, who brought 872 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 9: us the black Codes, we never punished them. Those are 873 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,400 Speaker 9: the same people who on January sixth showed us that 874 00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:37,720 Speaker 9: they were going to storm the Capitol. 875 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 7: We never punished him. Now those people are running government. 876 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:47,520 Speaker 9: So I and Merritt Garland didn't help us. I always 877 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 9: say that the reason we're in this situation is this 878 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 9: country never punished the Confederates, and now we're stuck here still, 879 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 9: we're dealing with one hundred and Angela. The reason it's 880 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 9: so hard is we're dealing with one hundred and twenty years, 881 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 9: one hundred and more than one hundred and thirty plus 882 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 9: years of that entrenched history of having individuals who don't 883 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 9: believe in the very essence of what this country should 884 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 9: be still running government today. 885 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 6: I think it predates them. For instance, Americans don't want 886 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:18,839 Speaker 6: to reckon with the fact that we didn't allow all 887 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 6: people to vote. We alloted white men who were landowners 888 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,480 Speaker 6: to vote, and guess what else, they did not have 889 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 6: to be citizens of the United States of America to vote. 890 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:32,359 Speaker 6: That has not always been a condition of voting in 891 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:35,759 Speaker 6: federal elections or local elections in the United States of 892 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,280 Speaker 6: America over its history. It did not begin that way. 893 00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:43,319 Speaker 6: This country has always prioritized the most powerful, the most 894 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 6: well connected, the most well constituted individuals, and quite frankly, 895 00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:50,319 Speaker 6: if they had it their way. And this is why 896 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,880 Speaker 6: Donald Trump doesn't face as much resistance within his party 897 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,839 Speaker 6: as he should trying to be not just a kleptocrat, 898 00:46:56,200 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 6: but quite frankly, to return this this nation to some 899 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 6: kind of aristocracy or worse. Is because they fundamentally don't 900 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 6: believe that the proletariat should have access direct access to 901 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 6: the ballot box. And by the way, the Framers didn't 902 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,799 Speaker 6: believe that either, we did not have direct elections to 903 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 6: House members to Senate members, to the presidency, and we 904 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 6: still don't have direct elections to the presidency. We were 905 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 6: electing people to go and then hopefully speak for us 906 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:32,640 Speaker 6: in conventions and as Electoral College voters and as US senators, 907 00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 6: but we were not supposed to have this much direct 908 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,400 Speaker 6: proximity to one the vote and then to what is 909 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 6: supposed to be inured from it, which is power. They 910 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,320 Speaker 6: don't believe we should, so they really want to return 911 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:49,320 Speaker 6: to a foundational premise where the most powerful, the most 912 00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:52,279 Speaker 6: well connected, the most well heeled, even if they are 913 00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:56,480 Speaker 6: not US citizens, are the ones who basically get to control. 914 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 2: Things absolutely well. 915 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 1: We will continue to be following all the redistricting efforts, 916 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:07,719 Speaker 1: the midterm mid term redistricting efforts, by the way, and 917 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,839 Speaker 1: all of what's happening as we lead into the twenty 918 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,880 Speaker 1: twenty six midterms, and efforts by the Trump administration to 919 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:17,760 Speaker 1: still kill and destroy the midterms, and all of our efforts, 920 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 1: our collective efforts to fight back. So thank you all 921 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:20,800 Speaker 1: so much. 922 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:30,120 Speaker 19: Who cares about truth for the last more than seen it. 923 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,279 Speaker 1: Okay, everyone, for my call to action today, I am 924 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 1: lending it to a friend of the show attorney to 925 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 1: Mario Solomon Simmons, who has this update in the Creek case. 926 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,360 Speaker 20: Peace Families to turn to Mario Solomon Simmons. 927 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:46,080 Speaker 7: We all know when there's. 928 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,720 Speaker 20: Assault on black people, and black people's right to vote 929 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 20: anywhere is an assault on all of us everywhere.

This matters to all of us because 940 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 20: our dignity as black people are under assault. This is 941 00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:25,600 Speaker 20: no different than Governor George Wallace in the nineteen sixties 942 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 20: standing in the doorway at the University of Alabama because 943 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 20: he didn't want black students the opportunity to integrate the 944 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 20: University of Alabama.
