1
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to will Kate f Daily

2
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: with Meet your Girl Daniel Moody, recording from the Home Bunker. Folks,

3
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: we've made it to the end of yet another week,

4
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: and bravo. Pat ourselves on the back, give yourself a hug,

5
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: because it's a struggle. I mean, let's just be honest.

6
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: There's an article that was in Politico this week referencing

7
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 1: the fact that diplomats around the world are really concerned

8
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 1: and lamenting partisan divides in the United States that are

9
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: essentially making the world unsafe, right and destabilizing. And so,

10
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: you know, I read this article and I thought to

11
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: myself as I'm reading it, the fact is that while,

12
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: of course, you know, diplomats, what was interesting about this

13
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: is that diplomats don't usually wade into partisan politics or

14
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 1: politics really at all. You know, like they are in

15
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: you know, diplomats and ambassadors and they you know, represent

16
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: their countries and you know, in foreign places to show

17
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: alliance and allegiance and all of these things. And these

18
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: folks who spoke to Politico did so under you know, anonymity,

19
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: so that you know, they won't lose their jobs or

20
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: spark you know, more outrage, but the collective feeling was

21
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: the same that the United States and the far right

22
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: and the Republican Maga supremacists are making the world and

23
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: the country more and more unsafe, and that their actions

24
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: are being celebrated by a thoranitarians like Putin, like Netan, Yahoo,

25
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: like Urbon, and others around the world who will be

26
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 1: served by a weekend the United States. And you know,

27
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: I'm not too young to remember a time when while

28
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: we had our differences, the political parties had our differences

29
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 1: at home, that there was always a united front in

30
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 1: terms of how we handled our allies and adversaries abroad.

31
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 1: Donald Trump entirely changed that dynamic. He changed that dynamic

32
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 1: for the worst when he just up and tore up

33
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: the Iran deal that Barack Obama had put together in

34
00:02:55,200 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: order to finally bring in aid, you know, relieve sanctions

35
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: that went so far as not to provide the people

36
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: of Iran with medical supplies, with medicines and the like.

37
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: And so when he did that, it was a signal

38
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: to the world, along with you know, walking away from

39
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: the Paris Climate Agreement and other things, that the United

40
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 1: States can no longer be trusted. Right, that literally how

41
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 1: the United States is going to engage with the world

42
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 1: will always depend on who is in office, and so

43
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: every four years, the global you know world has to

44
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: what like, hedge their bets. And what they were saying

45
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: in this article is that there is absolutely no ability

46
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: to be able to create then long term deals, knowing

47
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: that depending on the move or who the president is

48
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: that comes in, that deal can be ripped up. So basically,

49
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: the United States and our partisan issues which are not

50
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: even partisan issues, we have went from a two party

51
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: system to a one party system where the other party

52
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: are domestic terrorists, right, who don't believe in the constitution,

53
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: who don't believe in the rule of law, who don't

54
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: believe in precedent, and because of their desire to turn

55
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 1: the United States into a white, evangelical, you know, Christian,

56
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: white nationalist nation, the reverberations that are happening around the

57
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 1: world are going to be catastrophic because whether or not

58
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: we like it, and whether or not we believe that

59
00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 1: it should be. So, the United States has been the

60
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: strongest poll to bring other people into the tent of democracy. Now,

61
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 1: of course, I'm very challenged in saying that because the

62
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: more that you learn about our foreign policy, the more

63
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: you learn about what the United States has done, the

64
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of people that

65
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: have been killed, the regimes that the United States has

66
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: decided to either decimate or upholl depending on how much

67
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 1: they can extract from whether it is Latin America or

68
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,359
Speaker 1: the continent of Africa. All of those things can be

69
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: true at the same time. Right that the United States

70
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 1: has the best pr as it pertains to democracy. Many

71
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: of the diplomats and ambassadors were educated in our universities,

72
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: and so they understand inside and out who this country

73
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 1: is and who it has aspired to be with each

74
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 1: given generation. And what they are seeing right now with

75
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 1: Maga supremists, the fact that you can barely get this

76
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 1: Congress to elect a fucking speaker, let alone like past policy,

77
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: to provide aid to let say Ukraine, and to do

78
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 1: the bare minimum of passing a budget so that the

79
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: government doesn't shut down. So when you take all of

80
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: these things into consideration and we have an election that

81
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: is coming up in ten months, you know, I continue

82
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: to say, like, it don't look good, right, Like it

83
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 1: doesn't look good. It doesn't look good for us here right,

84
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: who are going to live with the fallout, But then

85
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 1: also understanding that we're not the only ones that are

86
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 1: going to be living with the fallout, that the world

87
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 1: is going to reorder, and America is not going to

88
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: be on the side that it has been on, which

89
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: has been the side of promoting and establishing democracy around

90
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: the world. So then what happens, Well, what these diplomats

91
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: were saying is what is going to happen is what

92
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: they are seeing happen, which is that these alternatives pop up,

93
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: these alternative allegiances, right, these alternative ties, and that what

94
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: is going to end up happening is that the relationship

95
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: that other nations have to the United States will no

96
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: longer be one of a strong allyship. It will just

97
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: be transactional. So, folks, the consequences of this upcoming election

98
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: aren't just about our lives. It's about global safety and stability,

99
00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: which is all at stake and all on the ballot.

100
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: I keep saying to myself, like, why am I so tired?

101
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: Why am I, you know, so stressed? You know, it's

102
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: just roughly, you know what, two weeks into this new year,

103
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: and I am struggling to get out of bed, like

104
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: I'm not hitting you. I'm struggling to get out of bed,

105
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: I'm struggling to sleep, and I'm saying to my friends

106
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 1: and family, like I don't know how I'm going to

107
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: get through the next ten months, right like, and I'm

108
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: talking about myself, but like when I say, like, I

109
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: don't know how we are going to get through the

110
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: next ten months because so much is at stake, and

111
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: it's like it's like one of those things you know

112
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 1: when you have like your to do list and you

113
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: have so much to do and you're so overwhelmed by

114
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: all of the things that you have to do, so

115
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: you end up doing nothing. That's how I feel where

116
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: I feel like the United States has so much to do.

117
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 1: The people of this country. There is so much waking

118
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: up to do. There is so much like energy that

119
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,439
Speaker 1: needs to be put in to getting people to recognize

120
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: that we're not voting for Joe Biden. Like, let's just

121
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 1: set that aside. We're not voting for Joe Biden. I'm

122
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: not going to be telling you for the next ten

123
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: months that Joe Biden is my guy and that like

124
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: you you know, we got to go all in for

125
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: him because he's great and like and all of these things. No,

126
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be doing that because it's not

127
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:39,719
Speaker 1: how I feel. I feel like the choice we have

128
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: very stark decisions with really poor choices to make those decisions.

129
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 1: But the fact is is that if your issue is

130
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: what is happening in Gaza right now with a genocide

131
00:09:55,040 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 1: and murder spree that is taking place being funded by

132
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: our government, if you think that that gets better or

133
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: changes if Donald Trump becomes president of the United States,

134
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 1: and because you're saying, well, I'm just gonna opt out,

135
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: if you give a fuck, then we need to actually

136
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: work with what we have right and the current set

137
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: of rights that we still have WOHILD is to protest

138
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 1: and pressure the current administration that actually gives a shit

139
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: about what the people think and what the people say

140
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 1: and do. You have to work with what you have

141
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: where you have it. And so if your issue is well,

142
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is a warmongerer and genocide Joe, I will

143
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: tell you that if you think for a fucking minute

144
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: that anything will get better in that country if Donald

145
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: Trump becomes president again, and you are fucking kidding yourself,

146
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: and you're also setting up those people for their end

147
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: right which they're already being pushed towards. If they are

148
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 1: going to have a chance, it is going to be

149
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: for Joe Biden to recognize that he is losing the

150
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: electorate because of his allegiance to Netanyahu, who by the way,

151
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 1: doesn't fucking like him and does not want him to win.

152
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: He wants Trump to win. So that should be all

153
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 1: you need to know about that. If climate change is

154
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 1: your issue, and you think for any small measure that

155
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 1: a climate denier going into the White House at a

156
00:11:55,600 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: critical time in the world where we are in every

157
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: season every year witnessing the hottest summers, the coldest winters,

158
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 1: polar var Texas, floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, fire, seasons that are

159
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: all quote unquote historic and the worst we've ever seen

160
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 1: every year. Donald Trump is not gonna solve that. Maga's

161
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: supremacts are not gonna solve that. Right, They're not gonna

162
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: help you with your utility bills or the ability to

163
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: rebuild your home. Okay, So if that's your issue, sitting

164
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: this one out, ain't it. If your issue is abortion

165
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: and that's the thing that is driving you to the polls,

166
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,559
Speaker 1: and you just see that the Supreme Court just upheld

167
00:12:55,840 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 1: one of the strictest abortion measures in Idaho, which states

168
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 1: that even in the case of an emergency, when the

169
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: life of the pregnant person and woman is at stake,

170
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: no abortion for you. You can die along with that fetus.

171
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: They upheld it in Texas, they upheld it in Idaho.

172
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 1: Donald Trump becomes president, which, by the way, he is

173
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 1: going on the campaign trail saying I'm the one that

174
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: got you abortion. And that's all fucking white evangelical Christians

175
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: give a fuck about. Oh, that and white supremacy. So

176
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: if that's your issue, you want what is happening in

177
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 1: Idaho and in Texas and in all of these other

178
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: red states and Midwestern states. You want that shit nationalized,

179
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: because that is also what is gonna happen. You know,

180
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 1: people tell me, Danielle, you need to just stop spreading fear,

181
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: and like, you know, oh, I'm not gonna listen, and

182
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, I don't give a fuck about you.

183
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 1: Just don't come crying to me. Well, you won't be

184
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: able to because you'll be in a fucking camp. Okay,

185
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: you'll be jobless and homeless on the street, and guess what,

186
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: there'll be no safety nets. And why do I say

187
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: jobless and homeless, Because when these white supremaists get in,

188
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: they've already overturned affirmative action. When you're racist, white bosses

189
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: decide that they want to fire you or not hire you,

190
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: or pay you less, you have no recourse to go

191
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 1: to the courts because they can do whatever the fuck

192
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 1: they want. Right. So, when you realize that you're nothing

193
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: more than an indentured servant, right with no one who

194
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: gives a fuck about how you're able to put food

195
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: on your table or if you're able to do so,

196
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: and then you take whatever job that you can get

197
00:14:53,800 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: which will exploit you and then throw you away. So, folks,

198
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: there isn't a choice in this upcoming election. I'm not

199
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: voting for Joe Biden. I'm voting for myself. I'm voting

200
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: for my family. I'm voting for my friends. I'm voting

201
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 1: for all of you to be able to have self determination,

202
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: to still have some rights, and to still muster the

203
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: energy in order to fight back against people who want

204
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 1: to reinstate Jim Crow and an apartheid worse than anything

205
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 1: that we saw in the twentieth century. Folks, wake up,

206
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: rite and shake the shit out of the people around you.

207
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: I'm just as angry, frustrated, depleted as everybody else is.

208
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: And you hear me on this show, go for my

209
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: ups and my downs and my ups and my downs,

210
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: and were going to be on this ride together until November.

211
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: But there is one thing that I will tell you

212
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: for certain is that I will absolutely fucking vote, and

213
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 1: I will vote for my fucking life. I'm not votevoting

214
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: for a person. So what kind of life do you want?

215
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: Right with the limited amount of time that we're all

216
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: given on this earth? What kind of life do you want?

217
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: That's what you're voting for. Do you want to life

218
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 1: filled with some choices or none at all? Because that's

219
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 1: where we are. You know, my friend Rashad Robinson, who

220
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: is the president and CEO of Color of Change, the

221
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: largest online civil rights organization, he said this, He goes

222
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: some elections are about pushing forward for progress. Other elections

223
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: are just about holding the fuck on. That's what this

224
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: election is buying us some time for these lawsuits to

225
00:16:54,720 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: play out, for us to overturn MAGA supremacy, for us

226
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: to be able to have a Department of Justice that

227
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 1: can do its job and go after those that continue

228
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,439
Speaker 1: to want to thwart not only our democracy but the

229
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: rule of law. We need more fucking time. So for

230
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:25,400
Speaker 1: everybody around you, whether it is your your kids, your nieces,

231
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 1: your nephews, your students, right your community members that are

232
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 1: throwing up their hands in the air, tell them that

233
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: they are not voting for Joe Biden. Nobody's asking them

234
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 1: to wear a fucking T shirt or pin okay and

235
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 1: rah rah rah at every rally like he's the second Coming.

236
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: He is not. But I know what he is not,

237
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: which is the devil reincarnate. I know what he is not,

238
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: which is a man that believes that people, right, all

239
00:17:55,680 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: people in this country should have access to the American dream,

240
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: whatever that looks like for them. I know that he's

241
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,879
Speaker 1: not a white supremacist. I know that he's not a misogynist,

242
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: and I know that he's not a rapist. And I

243
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 1: know that that makes the bar really fucking low. But

244
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 1: that's where we are. We're in the gutter, and so

245
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: to crawl our ways back up top. We got to

246
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,439
Speaker 1: figure this shit out, and it is not going to

247
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: be pretty and we're not going to feel good about it.

248
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 1: Not every decision that we have to make do we

249
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: have to feel good about And I say this to

250
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 1: you because you guys get it, but I want you

251
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 1: to tell the people that are around you who don't,

252
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 1: using whatever platform you have, whatever voice, you have, to

253
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: let people fucking know everything is at stake in this election,

254
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:55,439
Speaker 1: not just for us, but for everyone around the world.

255
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 1: In order for there to be global stability, we need

256
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: a strong United States. That is just the facts, right

257
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: the fuck now. So I'm not willing. There are days,

258
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: trust me, and I had some of them this week

259
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: where I said, fuck it, let this place go up

260
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 1: in flames. But the reality is that there is nowhere

261
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,120
Speaker 1: else to go because everywhere you go there we are.

262
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: So if we want a future that has some type

263
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: of hope for your children, for your grandchildren, for those

264
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:52,480
Speaker 1: children in Gaza, then my god, there isn't a choice

265
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:58,880
Speaker 1: to be made. We're not voting for a person, We're

266
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: voting against fashion. And this election is going to be

267
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 1: the most uncomfortable one that we've had because we don't

268
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: get to feel good about it. Not every decision that

269
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 1: we make do we get to feel good about. Some

270
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: decisions just have to be fucking made. This is one

271
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: of them that is it for me today? Dear friends

272
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: on Woke a f as always, power to the people
