So those things 73 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 4: will be circulating. But I tell you what, I am 74 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 4: excited about forty seven being Madam resident, not Madam Vice President. 75 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 4: So I'm excited about talking about this and all the 76 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 4: things in this episode. 77 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think let's get into it, because you know, 78 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: there's so many opinions and so much information out there. 79 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: And one of the things on Vacation Andrew that Angela 80 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: and I talked about is I was saying, like, I 81 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: don't want to spend a bunch of time, you know, 82 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: picking over everything right wing Republican extremists say about Vice 83 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: President Harris. I just, you know, like that, I just 84 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: don't like it. But Angela had a different perspective, which 85 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: actually like won me over and convinced me. So, Angela, 86 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: what was your counterpoint to me saying I don't want 87 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: to spend a bunch of time talking about that, A. 88 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,559 Speaker 4: Bunch of time time about west Side I was trying 89 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 4: to check. 90 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: Well, So Angela's point. Yeah. So Angela's counterpoint was, but 91 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: people need to know what to say, you know, like 92 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 1: when when they say, oh, she's a Dei higher, that's 93 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: such nonsense to me that I'm like, why would we 94 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: spend our time? Our audience knows she's not a Dei higher. 95 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: But Angela's point was, I think we should arm people 96 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: with a retort, you know, with a counterpright. 97 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 4: No, I don't remember what I said, Yes, but that 98 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 4: is true. You know what else, Taraji, I am a 99 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 4: Deei higher and I'm proud of it. 100 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: I think I'm about to tell you what is going 101 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: on with Angela? Why did she call me Tai? I'm 102 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: not talking about you, girl. 103 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 4: Let me make my point about Taraji p Henson. What 104 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 4: I was about to say was, I am a Dei hier. 105 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 4: Kamala Harris will be a Dei high. 106 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,919 Speaker 1: You know a de I means now, definitely earned it. 107 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 4: Definitely earned it. So I'm excited about claiming claiming our title. 108 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: What's the Taraji forgive me for? Taraji posted it? 109 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 4: She posted it, and that's what I said, relaxed, man. 110 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: I know you're tech. 111 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 3: She's being. 112 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 4: Why did you call me Taraji? 113 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: I didn't know all that would be a problem. 114 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 4: I left her too, but you should have your own name. 115 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 4: It's wonderful and you've done so many great things. 116 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 3: But moreover, I love that that she's been so at 117 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 3: the forefront, I mean putting. I mean we talked about 118 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 3: Project twenty twenty five some time ago, but by and large, 119 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 3: you know, I think everyday folks hadn't really plugged in. 120 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 3: And then she goes to the bet wards, she shouts 121 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 3: it out, she gives it. You know, it's time in 122 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 3: this space, and it blows up as like number one search. 123 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, so I appreciate this. D What is Project twenty 124 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 4: twenty five? So shout out to Taraji and whatever else 125 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 4: and shout out to Stoever. In this episode, Joy did 126 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 4: the whole episode. 127 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 3: She did an incredible executive Yeah, exacutive. 128 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: So we're going to get into all of this on 129 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: the episode. We're also going to talk about the VP stakes. 130 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 1: By the time you are listening to this episode, there 131 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: is a chance that Vice President Harris would have named 132 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: her running mate, So we'll we'll get into that and 133 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: we Andrew, I know you want to talk about the 134 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: child Tax Credit, which means a lot to you for 135 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: obvious reasons and probably a lot to a lot of 136 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: our listeners as well. So let's let's jump right in. 137 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: Do you do you guys mind? Because I want you 138 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: all to know that Angela has been reading Projects twenty 139 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: twenty five line by line, and one of our listener 140 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: questions Donald Trump has been trying distance himself from Project 141 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: twenty five out of the blue, and one of our 142 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: viewer questions points this out, and I think it's a 143 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: great way to kick off the show. So let's roll 144 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: that question, Nick. I believe this is from Douglas. Gill Douglas, 145 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: Hey native lampod. 146 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 7: My name is Gil Douglas. I live in Dallas, Texas, 147 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 7: and I don't actually have a question. I'm more like, 148 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 7: have just a comment. As we are encouraging folks to 149 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 7: have conversation around Project twenty twenty five, which I wholeheartedly support, 150 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 7: I'm reading it myself. I also want to make sure 151 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 7: that as we acknowledge and understand that Donald Trump is 152 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 7: trying to separate himself from that manifesto, that he actually 153 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 7: has a series of videos out there that speak to 154 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 7: his platform, his intention around what he would do should 155 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 7: he get into office. 156 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 4: It's called Agenda forty seven. 157 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 7: Now I've not listened to Agenda forty seven yet because 158 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 7: his voice makes my ears bleed, but I am want 159 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 7: to listen to it because I think there'll be parallels 160 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 7: between that and Project twenty twenty five. And as he 161 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 7: continues to say I'm not proud of Project twenty five 162 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 7: that has nothing to do with me, then I think 163 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 7: we need to encourage folks to go listen to the 164 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 7: things that he has put out them there himself in 165 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 7: Agenda forty seven. You'll probably be able to draw parallels 166 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 7: between the two, but it allows us to have the 167 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 7: conversation with him about what he's actually said while he 168 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 7: is trying to distance himself away from something that we 169 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 7: all know he will implement should he ever get elected. 170 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 4: Thank you, y'all have a great one. Yeah, thank you 171 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 4: so so much. I love I love our listeners and 172 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 4: our viewers turning in these great questions and comments letting 173 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 4: us know that they definitely feel at home. So that's 174 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 4: the most important thing I will say. Donald Trump cannot 175 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 4: distance himself from Project twenty twenty five. We know from 176 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 4: reports I think three weeks ago, that one hundred and 177 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 4: forty people are associated with project twenty twenty five, who 178 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 4: used to work for Donald J. Trump, Right, So there's 179 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 4: no distancing whether you call it project forty seven, project 180 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 4: twenty twenty five, project throwback forty five, project January sixth, 181 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 4: project Supreme Court, got bigots on it. Whatever you call it, 182 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 4: it is Donald Trump's plan. They have been wanting to 183 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 4: borrow in employees in the federal government who were partisan 184 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 4: and would work the Heritage Foundation agenda since Ronald Reagan. Like, 185 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 4: let's be very clear about the fact that nothing has changed. 186 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 4: Their make America great again is to make America Handmaid's 187 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 4: Tale again, and we're not here for it. So we 188 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 4: know exactly what it is. We're not confused, and we 189 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,319 Speaker 4: can move right along. But I do look forward to 190 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 4: getting more into the nine hundred pages where they take 191 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 4: away more of women's rights, where they try to chastise 192 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 4: and punish the LGBTQIA community, where they tried to make 193 00:09:55,160 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 4: children work beyond what is okay for labor laws, all 194 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 4: of that I would look I look forward to talking 195 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 4: about how they would like to defund Headstart and make 196 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 4: life more difficult for our seniors who have definitely served 197 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 4: this nation and helped to build it, so let's talk 198 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 4: about it another time. 199 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: Well, I think it's important for the viewers to know 200 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: what exactly is in Agenda forty seven. And one thing 201 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: a lot of people have given the Republicans credit for 202 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: is the First Step Act, which we've talked a little 203 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: bit about on this show. The First Step Act was 204 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 1: introduced by Congressman Hakeem Jeffries. He did have a Republican 205 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: counterpart joined him in that it was a bipartisan piece 206 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,319 Speaker 1: of legislation that was intended to correct some of the 207 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: previous injustices when it comes to crime. Now, I never 208 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: gave Republicans credit for this, I think, you know, because 209 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 1: they pulled the knife six inches out our back. It 210 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: was still in our backs. Nonetheless, and all of that 211 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: work that they attempted to do they are now or 212 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: attempted to undo. Rather, they are now reintroducing in both 213 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: Projects twenty twenty five and Agenda forty seven. Some of 214 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: those things include the death penalty for drug dealers. Now, 215 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: one wants to define, well, what exactly is the drug dealer? 216 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: If you sell in a nickel bag of weed someplace 217 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: where it's not legalized, are you then eligible for the 218 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,199 Speaker 1: death penalty? Another thing. He wants to invest significant amounts 219 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: of the federal budget into police hiring, more police, training, 220 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 1: more police. That has not served us well. The last 221 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: time we saw something like that was during the era 222 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: of a George H. W. Bush, who tripled funding for 223 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,839 Speaker 1: criminal justice efforts that basically declared a war on black people. 224 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: Donald Trump wants to implement stopping frisk programs across the country. 225 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: And this is when someone can law enforcement officer can 226 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: just come to you and stop you for any reason 227 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: and frisk you. A lot of people already live in 228 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:51,119 Speaker 1: stopping frisk areas, whether it's legal or not, of harassment 229 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 1: like this. We just saw what happened with Sonya Massey, 230 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: which Angela talked a bit about last week. He also 231 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: wants to abolish the cash bail system. We don't have 232 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: to recount how many people have been negatively and adversely 233 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,199 Speaker 1: impacted by that, from Khalif Browder to the names that 234 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 1: you've never heard who were just in prison because they 235 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: couldn't afford bail. He wants to overhaul the Department of 236 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: Education to allow miners to be disciplined. This is the 237 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 1: quote unquote pro Life party who purportedly cares so much 238 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: about children. He wants to take federal tax dollars and 239 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 1: create something called American University that's free education. And you 240 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: can imagine with the wars on things they're imagined boogeyman 241 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: of critical race theory that really isn't taught in K 242 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: through twelve, they want to ban things like that at 243 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 1: this American University. I can't imagine what they would teach. 244 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of dangerous policy, and I wanted 245 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 1: to exactly and I wanted to point out the crime 246 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: part of this, because there's a significant number of people 247 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: out there who misattribute Vice President Harris's record as a prosecutor. 248 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: And one of those people, well is my friend. I 249 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 1: love you, brother, and I appreciate what you did. And 250 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 1: that's d o Hugh Glee. And he has since informed 251 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: and educated himself and taken it upon himself to help 252 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: educate voters and his listeners. So if we can, I 253 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: want you all to take a listen to what Doo 254 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: hughgly said and we'll talk about it on the other side. 255 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 5: I have said before, I used to repeat to some 256 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 5: of the same things at nauseum that people are right now. 257 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 5: Oh well, she blocked up a lot of black men. 258 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 5: I lived in this state my whole life. I had 259 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 5: an occasion to talk to her on several occasions. I 260 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:33,559 Speaker 5: accused her on this radio station, on this network of 261 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 5: the same things that people are doing right now. If 262 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 5: you are the people right now who are misquoting her record, 263 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 5: we are not the same. If you believe that her 264 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 5: locking people up from weed is worse than a man 265 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 5: who says he wants to give Adope Talers the definitely 266 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 5: we are not the same. 267 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 6: If you want me to remember her. 268 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 5: Past but not Trump's past, were not the same. If 269 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 5: you want to remind me of her record but don't 270 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,319 Speaker 5: want to talk about Project twenty twenty five. Have you 271 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 5: ever known the same black people that want to tell 272 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 5: you she sold all weed and locked all these people up. 273 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 5: I'll tell you they don't believe the twenty twenty five 274 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 5: as Trunk's plan for a second for a second term. 275 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,599 Speaker 5: There is a reason for that. If you're telling me 276 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 5: you're not gonna vote for her because she has a 277 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 5: white husband, then we're not the same. Well, she ain't 278 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 5: black enough. 279 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 7: I tell you what. 280 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 5: She's a black woman.

It's so petty, 307 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 4: It's so petty and unnecessary. It gives them ammunition for 308 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 4: something that we don't need. This is, you know, we're 309 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 4: in a campaign season where I often say it's a 310 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 4: political war where on another channel they can call Kamala 311 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 4: the original hawk tool girl, right, So why are we 312 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 4: feeding into any of that? Like I wish that he 313 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 4: hadn't done that, I will also say that I wish 314 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 4: that he'd said the actual number of people that were 315 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 4: locked up for marijuana charges while Kamala Harris was DA 316 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 4: was forty five people? Is that too many? Before? You know, 317 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 4: marijuana was legal in some states? Arguably right, forty five. 318 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 4: But let's compare that record to every other prosecutor in 319 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 4: the country. Let's compare it to see how she did. 320 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 4: And if you look at the things that she said, 321 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 4: whether it was at the State of the Black Union, 322 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 4: at Howard or was while she was running for office, 323 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 4: she was a very progressive prosecutor at that time, and 324 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 4: I think that her Senate record fulfills that legacy of 325 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 4: being very progressive, progressive on criminal justice reform, on police reform, 326 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 4: on voting rights, on black maternal health, on how we 327 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 4: earn education, and how we earn a living. She has 328 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 4: been extraordinarily progressive. And by that I'm not just talking 329 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 4: about liberal right, I'm talking about someone who's thinking about 330 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 4: the ways to move us forward. 331 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad that you all added to what doo 332 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: Heagley was trying to do.

That in Harris had 344 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: a scheduling conflict because she's campaigning, so she you know, 345 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: offered what she could reportedly She offered a video, to 346 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 1: which NABJA declined, and Donald Trump has offered to show up. 347 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. 348 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 3: I think she offered as well a live chat sort. 349 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: Of join remote, and they declined, and so Donald Trump 350 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: accepted to be there in person to be interviewed by 351 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 1: three journalists. I put that in quotes because one of 352 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: those journalists is Harris Faulkner, who is from Fox News, 353 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: and we all know that the challenges with that. I 354 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: just want to say I do not agree with this decision. 355 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: I strongly condemn it. Again, I understand that this has 356 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: been the tradition of NABJ for a long time. You 357 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: invite both presidential candidates, but to treat this like it's 358 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: a normal election, like Donald Trump is a normal candidate. 359 00:18:56,119 --> 00:19:00,360 Speaker 1: To me, this is what happens when black reporters take 360 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: on the personality of white run newsrooms and then start 361 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: moving with white sensibility. Donald Trump has been insulting to journalists, 362 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:12,199 Speaker 1: all journalists, but specific journalists in particular April Ryan, longtime 363 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: NABJ member, Johnny Alsendor, longtime NABJ member, Jamel Hill, longtime 364 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 1: Machete member and NABJ member, and our girl. He actually 365 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: called for her to be fired while he was president. 366 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: It is so disrespectful. There is a whole contingency of 367 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 1: an LGBTQ task force. He is very or his administration, 368 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: his policies are very anti LGBTQ. This is a place 369 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: when we gather where we feel safe, and they have 370 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: disrupted that. I don't like it. I don't like it 371 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: at all. I think it's disrespectful and an embarrassment to 372 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 1: NABJ and to me, they have increasingly proved they are 373 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,479 Speaker 1: less relevant today by making decisions like this. But Angela, 374 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 1: I know you have thoughts, Andrew, you have thoughts, Angela, 375 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: what do you think about it? 376 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 4: I think, first, NABJ continues to be disappointment. I actually 377 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 4: posted last night that this, to me is an extension 378 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 4: of the harm that they themselves caused by not asking 379 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 4: questions after your show was canceled three days before the 380 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 4: election in November and they refused to really engage. And 381 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 4: I think, to me, when you can't ask tough questions 382 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 4: of networks, but you can ask softball questions in a 383 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 4: range for a white supremacist, an insurrectionist, a terrorist, and 384 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 4: a serial offender, questions because he said he wants to 385 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 4: show up and he wants to know what the hell 386 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 4: do we have to lose. I think that's highly problematic. 387 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 4: You have an historic candidate who can't come because she's 388 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 4: going to the funeral of a Congressional Black Caucus member, 389 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 4: Sheila Jackson Lee, where Kamala Harris was very active as 390 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 4: a member. You would think that they would understand the situation. 391 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 4: I think moreover, you know, if they're to be fair 392 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 4: to Kamala Harris's campaign, they did release a statement saying 393 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 4: that all Donald Trump is gonna get up there and 394 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 4: do is lie about the accomplishments he's made and done 395 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 4: on behalf of black people. So I hope that they 396 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 4: will rethink inviting her virtually so she can speak to 397 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 4: the Zeta, so she can go to s jl's funeral 398 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 4: and God rest her soul, but also be more mindful 399 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 4: about what our obligations are as black people in media, 400 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 4: as black journalists to cover. But this is exactly what 401 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 4: Tip said. It's a safe space for her. Ain't never 402 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 4: been a safe space for me. So I don't go there. 403 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 4: I wish you all the best, and I hope maybe 404 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 4: real soon, maybe this commision you elect better stronger leadership, 405 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 4: that actually has integrity and knows what journalistic standards are 406 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 4: all about, with the remembering first to do no harm, 407 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 4: especially to your DU's pay members. 408 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 1: Yes, and I've gone, and also not only have I gone, 409 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 1: but I in different capacities professionally. I've funneled a lot 410 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: of money to an ABJ because they function on sponsorship 411 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 1: and contributions, and it's worth no voting. When they were 412 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: vocal behind the scenes to me when everything went down 413 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: with my show, they were silent publicly. It's worth noting 414 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: that they take quite a bit of money from NBC Universal, 415 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: So I don't know beyond those facts. That's what I'll say. 416 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 4: When they select, they select which hands they gonna bite 417 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 4: that feed them. You see what I'm saying. So a 418 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 4: duce fand member they'll bite, a sponsor they won't, And 419 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 4: hopefully all of our organizations can do better there. I 420 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 4: know we got some conversations they have that our family talk, correct. 421 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's real. I have to say. It 422 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 3: does it does hurt when we have organizations like in 423 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:47,360 Speaker 3: the National Associated Black Associational Black Journalists who I think 424 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 3: I probably connected most Tiffany to your comments about taking 425 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 3: on and replicating white infrastructure and you know, a majority 426 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 3: thinking methodology, when your existence might be different in this space. 427 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 3: For instance, if what you exist to do is to 428 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 3: perpetuate the same harm that's been perpetuated amongst you in white, 429 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 3: largely white rooms of journalisms, of the of where the 430 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 3: paper gets cut, where decisions get made, where editorial decisions 431 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 3: to either prop up your byline or not, you know, 432 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 3: are determined, it would just seem to me that you 433 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 3: wouldn't then seek to replicate similar types of harm. That 434 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 3: maybe it is worth asking why did we need to 435 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 3: be set a part separate apart from the majority organization 436 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 3: that exists in our honor and our name as journalists? 437 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 3: What do we have to do differently to show up 438 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 3: in this space that we don't have free license to 439 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 3: do and therefore we need each other's backing in support 440 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 3: to do. We don't create these organizations as a side 441 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 3: just to be as sides. By and large, these separate 442 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 3: organizations which cater largely to minority groups, groups that are underseen, underheard, promoted, 443 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 3: and undersupport it needs spaces by which they get to 444 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 3: experience that. And I'll just say, as a candidate for 445 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 3: a state wide office in a state where black people 446 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 3: are less than twelve percent of the state's population. It 447 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 3: mattered to me when there were zero black journalists in 448 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 3: the state wide press court covering politics. It mattered to 449 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 3: me that the types of questions that I had to answer, 450 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 3: the source of lambasting that I got from air editorial pages, 451 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 3: by comparison to my opponents, who were far worse, I mean, 452 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 3: just worse creatures, worse humans. I attribute to the fact 453 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,479 Speaker 3: that that there were people writing about this who had 454 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:46,959 Speaker 3: no sense or sensibility about what shared experience, because there 455 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 3: was no shared experience that might exist on my road 456 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 3: to leadership versus somebody else's. So when I draw back 457 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 3: from this, it is I think it is important to 458 00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 3: have spaces like NABJ, But it's only important to me 459 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 3: to the extent that they're helping to level the systems 460 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 3: that so often level us in these professions. And I 461 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,960 Speaker 3: know good people who associate here, and I know they're 462 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 3: not time wasters, They're people who are good at what 463 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 3: it is that they do. I would seriously. I saw 464 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 3: the president, one of the presidents or co chairs or whatever, 465 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 3: on an interview on television earlier, and his comportment was 466 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 3: so dismissive of the president of Kamala Harris, including referring 467 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 3: to her as Kamala. Now, I don't know if they're 468 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 3: longtime friends, but given the under which he spoke, of 469 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 3: which he spoke, I have to assume probably not. Maybe 470 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,239 Speaker 3: they've never spoke. Maybe they are not friends, maybe they 471 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 3: don't know each other life not friends. 472 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 4: He had on a black undershirt. We talked about that 473 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 4: as well. 474 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 3: And therefore it might make sense, it might make sense 475 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 3: to respectfully refer to her as vice president. He has 476 00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 3: no clue either way. 477 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: I'm with you, Andrew. 478 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 3: We have to be better, do better. And to the 479 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 3: extent that these organizations just become replicas of their majorities institutions, 480 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 3: then it is of little use it as far as 481 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 3: I'm concerned. And to the extent that you then rise 482 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 3: up to level the systems that have kept you a pressing. 483 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 1: In front of you're talking about the vice president of 484 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: the United States and you're giving a press conference to reporters, 485 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: you're speaking to reporters, and he was calling her Kamala 486 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 1: like they just got a phone yesterday. I thought it 487 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 1: was disrespectful, But I know there are people who have 488 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: a challenge saying her name Angela. Yes, it's not me, 489 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: Kamala and all this, and they do that right. It's 490 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: not a mistake. It's with intention. 491 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 3: I heard, I heard Doug has some advice for you. 492 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,919 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, definitely got some gentlemen. 493 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 4: Not just for them, but for the man who was 494 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 4: once commander in chief, much to our chagrin. 495 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 3: Wh we roll that real quick, Nick, Well, I can't 496 00:26:58,680 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 3: wait to hear it. 497 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 4: You see my times real quick wrote that real quick me. 498 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 6: Mister Trump, I know you have so much trouble pronouncing, 499 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 6: but here's the good news. 500 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 3: After the election, you can just call her Madam President. 501 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: I love it. 502 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 3: That's easy. 503 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 4: And here's the point. 504 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: Doug's going hard with the bars. 505 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 4: I just figured, I keep going go ahead to. 506 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: I like your fretyle, I like your keep going, keep going. 507 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: Give it to a hater, such a hater.

And there is 512 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,880 Speaker 1: a video I don't know that released. 513 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 4: Nerves be released, but just what I tell you. It was, y'all. 514 00:27:59,440 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: It was dope. 515 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 4: It was it was Okay, it got kind of rough 516 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 4: on that third verse, but it was to the bankers. 517 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 4: I apologize the remix for all my machetes. I apollo, 518 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:12,120 Speaker 4: and I'll leave it there. 519 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: Okay, we gotta take another break.

I would like 523 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 1: to introduce a little bit of hope into the conversation, 524 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 1: because you know, I've been feeling apathetic and I didn't 525 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 1: see this, but you were telling us when we were 526 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 1: on the phone this morning that Senator Rafael Warnock had 527 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: something sweet to say. Apparently we did. 528 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 4: We got We gotta run that thing for all the 529 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 4: future and the kids that we have now out in 530 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 4: the world, especially Andrews three, who he has locked up 531 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 4: during the podcast.

Today we confirmed to the United States Supreme 541 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 8: Court Justice Kataja Brown Jackson in the history of our nation. 542 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 8: She's the first Supreme Court justice who looks like you, 543 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 8: with hair like yours. As we were confirming her, a 544 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 8: friend of mine, the Vice President, suggested that I write 545 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 8: a letter. By the way, she's the first vice president 546 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 8: who looks like you. I write to say that in America, 547 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 8: you can be anything you set your head and your 548 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 8: heart to beat. 549 00:29:58,520 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 3: Love that. 550 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 8: I wrote that letter to my five year old daughter. 551 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 8: I was so caught up with enthusiasm. I called on 552 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 8: FaceTime to read the letter. She's five years old. She 553 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 8: listened to the letter. She was not impressed. She said, 554 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 8: can I go out and play now? She didn't understand 555 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 8: that letter then, but she don't understanding in. 556 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 5: A few years. 557 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: I wrote that letter to my daughter. 558 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 8: But Georgia, America, now is our time to write a 559 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 8: letter to all of our children. 560 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: Now is our time to write a letter to the future. 561 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 3: All Right, So y'all know, you know, you know how 562 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 3: I feel about these tech credits. I think I drop 563 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 3: a mention of it nearly every episode, but I'm mentioning 564 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 3: it today as JD Vance I think earlier this week 565 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 3: in an interview, alluded to the fact that because Vice 566 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 3: President Harris didn't have any kids, you know, the whole 567 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 3: kitten child. Yeah, but Betty references her not having any 568 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 3: biological children means that she would not have been four, 569 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 3: alluding to the fact that she would not have been four, 570 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 3: or in favor of extending the child tax credit increase, 571 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 3: which is blooney, ludicrous, you know, any other word we 572 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 3: can think of. But I did want to note that 573 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 3: Senate Majority Leader Schumer decided to put on this week's 574 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 3: agenda before the US Senate goes on its August recess, 575 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 3: actually ring up that text credit relief for American families 576 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 3: and just for those of us who haven't followed it 577 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 3: closely back in January. The end of January, a bipartisan 578 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 3: group of votes from Republicans and Democrats passed out of 579 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 3: the House with three hundred and fifty seven votes tax 580 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 3: relief for American workers and families, and a sentinel piece 581 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 3: of it was expanding the child tax credit to cover 582 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 3: sixteen million kids from low income and middle income families, 583 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 3: lifting y'all over five hundred thousand children out of poverty, 584 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 3: and just real quick, what it would have done and 585 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 3: what it will do if it passes is the bill 586 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 3: will raise the cap on the child tax credit for 587 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 3: low income families, making all two thousand dollars now per 588 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 3: chiut eligible for them to claim as part of their 589 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 3: tax credit. And as you recall from the COVID relief package, 590 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 3: those tax credit refunds came in phases so that folks 591 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 3: didn't have to wait until reinging up and completing their 592 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 3: tax work at the next at the start of the 593 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,479 Speaker 3: new year before they can recoup the benefits. The other 594 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 3: thing that it did is the bill will stop the 595 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 3: long standing discrimination against low income families who have multiple 596 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 3: kids from being able to claim the entire two thousand 597 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 3: per child. Before the government required if you were a 598 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 3: low income family with multiple children, that you get the 599 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 3: first two thousand on one kid and then it will 600 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 3: go down appreciably for a future for other children. Again 601 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 3: a penalty on those families who have multiple multiple children children. 602 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 3: I think most folks who are watching this are not 603 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 3: optimistic that it will gain the kind of Republican support 604 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 3: that it's going to need the sixty vote threshold that 605 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 3: it will need to cross over in the US Senate. 606 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 3: But my hope is is that this is a piece 607 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 3: of legislation that will be picked up before this Congress 608 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 3: moves into a lame duck session or out of a 609 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 3: lame duck session, and then it is recessed and the 610 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 3: process would have to start, as you know, all over again. 611 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 3: For those of you families at home who are following this, 612 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 3: many refer to it as the Widen Smith Tax Reform 613 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 3: and Relief Package. Please please, please, please please continue to 614 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 3: follow it. Pressure members is incredibly important and again has 615 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 3: the benefit of lifting over a half a million children 616 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 3: immediately out of the federal poverty standards. It's it's it's huge, y'all. 617 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 3: If it could could pait so well. 618 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 1: The Democrats have the Senate, so I you know, think 619 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: it probably has a good chance of passing. 620 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 3: But Andrew, honestly, well, it's got across the filibuster threshold. 621 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 3: That's where we are now, is that it won't cross 622 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 3: the sixty the sixty voats that are necessary. Even though 623 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 3: there is Republican support for this piece of legislation sponsored 624 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 3: by both the Senate, by both the Senate Republican and 625 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 3: a House and a Senate. 626 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 1: So people really do need to press their elected representatives 627 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 1: to make sure absolutely. Andrew, honestly, I'm really happy that 628 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 1: you brought this up, because you know, I feel like 629 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: the echo chambers I complain about every week if they 630 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: focus on the same three story, same three sound bites, 631 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: and it really is just an echo chamber of what 632 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: we already know. If you watch the news at nine am, 633 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna hear the same thing by five pm if 634 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 1: there's no breaking news. But in this particular case, there 635 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,320 Speaker 1: hasn't even been a lot of coverage on this in 636 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,240 Speaker 1: print media, and I gonna say none, but there hasn't 637 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: been a lot as much as it should be. And 638 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 1: I think sometimes if we focus on policy and informing 639 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: the audience, everybody has an opinion. I don't really give 640 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,399 Speaker 1: a damn about everybody's opinion all the time. So these 641 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 1: constant opinion panels that we see you leave and it's like, yeah, 642 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: I know how these who gives a shit people feel 643 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: I did not learn anything. And so this is something 644 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: that has an impact on a huge pocket of the country. 645 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: That we virtually heard nothing about. So that's why you 646 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 1: tune in a native land, because we don't just opine. 647 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 1: We try our best to inform. So I'm happy that 648 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: that we talked about that. I think it's hugely important. 649 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 1: Can I I just want to shift a little bit. 650 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 1: I kind of love and I am enjoying that. The 651 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 1: Republicans are absolutely shook, like they don't know how to 652 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,800 Speaker 1: deal with the black woman at the top of the ticket. 653 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: They don't know how attack her, they don't know how 654 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: to vibe with her. Donald Trump said, did y'all know 655 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: she was sixty? I thought she was younger? Yeah, baby, 656 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 1: because we a's like fine wine, okay, like y'll never 657 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: know how old we are. 658 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,359 Speaker 3: But I want you to you. You see, he didn't 659 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,400 Speaker 3: make that comment about his vice president right exactly, because. 660 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 1: Honestly, I thought David Vance was about fifty and he 661 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,320 Speaker 1: is not. But I want I want you all to 662 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 1: listen to what jd Vance said. Now he does not 663 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 1: know he's being recorded. This was at a fundraising event 664 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 1: and someone recorded the audio of what he said about 665 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: Vice President Harris entering the race. So take a listen 666 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: and we'll discuss it on the other side. 667 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 9: All of us were hit with a little bit of 668 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 9: a political suffer punch. The badges is that Kamala Harris 669 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 9: does not have the same baggage as Joe Biden, because 670 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 9: whatever we might say, Kala Harris is a lot younger 671 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 9: and Kamala Harris is obviously not struggling in the same 672 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 9: way as that Joe Biden did. 673 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: Is this a campaign for the hair? What it sounded 674 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 1: like to me? And I just think it speaks to 675 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 1: uh that that we are such an impenetrable force that 676 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 1: they really don't know how to deal with us. Angela, 677 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 1: you expressed you have won me over on another perspective 678 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 1: that you had, and that is about Secretary Pete Boudage Edge. 679 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he's really made the rounds. He went on 680 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 1: The Daily Show, which I do watch, I did not 681 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,880 Speaker 1: in real time watch his interview with Fox News. You 682 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: know how I feel about people going on Fox News. 683 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,760 Speaker 1: He went on Fox News Sunday and was an amazing 684 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 1: communicator and very compelling. I don't know how many Fox 685 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 1: News viewers were receptive, but when I was watching, I 686 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 1: was like, this is what Angela was saying, Like, go 687 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 1: on there and beat them at their own game. Did 688 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 1: you see that interview or see any of the stuff 689 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 1: that he's been doing this week? 690 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 4: I did not see it, but I know we have 691 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 4: a clip, So why don't we roll that clip and 692 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:56,840 Speaker 4: then talk about it on the other side. 693 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 10: Perfect, That's a real reason I think she's going to win. 694 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 10: That most Americans already agree with her on the issues 695 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 10: that they care about the most. Her stance on defending 696 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 10: a woman's right to choose versus Donald Trump, who eliminated 697 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 10: a right to choose in this country, well in the States, 698 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 10: be fair, Let's be very clear. He is proud of 699 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 10: the fact that he demolished the national right to choose 700 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 10: in this country, period. And our country has watched our 701 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 10: president lead, and yes, we've also seen the fact that 702 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,319 Speaker 10: he's ten years older than he was ten years ago. 703 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:30,359 Speaker 10: But unlike Republicans will take a look at Donald Trump 704 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 10: and say he's perfectly fine, even though he seemed unable 705 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,240 Speaker 10: to tell the difference between Nicky Haley and Nancy Pelosi, 706 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 10: even though he's rambling about electrocuting sharks and Hannibal Lecter. 707 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,760 Speaker 10: They say he's strong as an ox leaps tall buildings 708 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 10: in a single bound. Well, we don't have that kind 709 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 10: of warped reality on our side. On the contrary, the 710 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 10: President confronted that reality in what must have been one 711 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 10: of the most difficult decisions for an American president to 712 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 10: make ever, and he did something that I don't think 713 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 10: Donald Trump could even conceive of doing, which is putting 714 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 10: his own interests aside for the country, trying to make 715 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 10: people think that crime is up when crime is down 716 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 10: under Joe Biden and crime was up under Donald Trump. Now, 717 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,840 Speaker 10: I don't know how often that gets reported on this network. 718 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,360 Speaker 10: So if you're watching this at home, do yourself a 719 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 10: favor and look up the data. 720 00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:19,720 Speaker 3: That great. 721 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:21,440 Speaker 10: So if you look this up at home, you will 722 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,359 Speaker 10: know that crime went down under Biden and crime went 723 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,879 Speaker 10: up under Trump. And I think the violent crime for sure. 724 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:27,879 Speaker 1: Yah. 725 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,720 Speaker 3: I think they not going to have her interview him again. 726 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 1: Circles around that home. 727 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 9: Let me take that. 728 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 3: I think they retired here. 729 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:39,800 Speaker 4: Let me tell you something at church, since I just 730 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 4: called his lady at home. At church, they say, if 731 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:46,360 Speaker 4: you can't say a word, just wave your hand, secretary. 732 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 4: Let me tell you Andrew, she said she cannot get 733 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 4: a word in edgewise, and he got her so good. 734 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,800 Speaker 4: So this is my point. When you are strong on facts, 735 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 4: when you know you're material, you go and you demolish 736 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:03,320 Speaker 4: the opposition. 737 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 3: That is what you do. 738 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,760 Speaker 4: That is why Kamala Harris will go on the debate 739 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 4: stage without Donald Trump, because she's still gonna stand on 740 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 4: the strength of the facts. We do not have to 741 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 4: be intimidated by Fox. Sure, it's nonsense, but people are 742 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,439 Speaker 4: watching that nonsense wall to wall coverage every single day. 743 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 4: Go and be a disruptor. Sometimes, go and meet people 744 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 4: where they are in their conspiracy theories, break down the 745 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,360 Speaker 4: myths behind all of those conspiracy theories, and do it 746 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 4: with grace and class if you can. I already told 747 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 4: y'all my ministry is not Fox News. I can't go 748 00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 4: on there. I'm gonna lose my whole career. But some 749 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 4: of y'all can go on there with grace and clarity 750 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 4: and conviction and fact check them and keep the host 751 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 4: from even being able to get a word in edgewise. 752 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 1: I think it's great, but he's a very I don't 753 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 1: think the vice president should go on there. I do, 754 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 1: like I know, I know. 755 00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 3: He's been doing this for a long time. Yeah, for 756 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 3: a long time, and for a long time they were 757 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 3: paired with interviewers who would would filibuster them to death 758 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 3: so that they couldn't get complete thoughts all the way in. 759 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 3: That was the power of that network. I've experienced at firsthand, 760 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 3: where they interrupt and sort of you know, talk, you know, 761 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 3: right over you. But I do think he's particularly skilled 762 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:19,240 Speaker 3: and would be skilled of that. And I'm not advocating 763 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 3: for him to be the vice president's choice. I think I, 764 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 3: you know, opined about who I thought should get it, 765 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 3: you know, the last time we talked about this. But 766 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 3: I think he's skilled, and I do think we ought 767 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 3: to have surrogate voices on Andrew. 768 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 4: I want to ask you this, do you think, as 769 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:38,280 Speaker 4: a former candidate, someone who successfully run multiple elections, multiple cycles, 770 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 4: do you see any any any good coming out of 771 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 4: a candidate going on a network that is not in 772 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 4: favor of that candidate. 773 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,359 Speaker 3: Absolutely, I do. I mean I went places you did 774 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 3: all the time where we were not expected to show 775 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,959 Speaker 3: up and people respected you, even if they didn't agree 776 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 3: with you, with showing up and treating them with respect 777 00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 3: enough to share your opinion, your thoughts and maybe contemplate 778 00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 3: their reaction and their response to it. So there's there's 779 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 3: no doubt. But but but I, but I, I don't 780 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 3: think we ought to get wildly optimistic in the sense 781 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,360 Speaker 3: that there is a whole swath in this, in this 782 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 3: era of of of Trumpia, who will suspend with with 783 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,920 Speaker 3: with their own belief, with their own experience, with with facts, 784 00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 3: so long as it comports with with his universally described 785 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 3: knowledge of what America is. They will look at numbers 786 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 3: as say, crime is down, violent crime is down to 787 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 3: a record low. We are the most we are the 788 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:43,239 Speaker 3: largest most massive producer of oil, you know, unfortunately, of 789 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,799 Speaker 3: in any nation in the world, and we've produced more 790 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 3: than the United States ever has in the history of 791 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 3: the world. But they will look at that, and they'll 792 00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 3: listen to Trump say, we're gonna, you know, get our 793 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,439 Speaker 3: mojo back and produce more oil than we ever have. Yeah, 794 00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 3: and we're gonna bring down crime because it's violent all 795 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 3: over the place. Yeah. So it's I just don't want 796 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 3: to delude us into thinking that there are whole swaths 797 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 3: of Americans to be gained here by doing this. I 798 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 3: don't think that's the reason not to do it, because 799 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 3: I do think in close elections, you know, we can 800 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 3: sway some folks and maybe in the right place is 801 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 3: that one percent may make a difference. But we are, 802 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,319 Speaker 3: by and large, I think as a society really living 803 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 3: in alternative universes. They're a venus and we're on Mars, 804 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 3: and I think there has to be some coalescing of 805 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 3: that and some recognition of truth in fact, if we're 806 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 3: gonna make any advances in it. Right now, there is 807 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,520 Speaker 3: no recognizable truth, no recognizable fact. 808 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:45,240 Speaker 1: Do you think that resulted in tangible voters for you? Andrew? 809 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: Sounds like you'd think it. 810 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 3: Did I do because it got us closer than any 811 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 3: other Democrat has in eighteen years running for governor of 812 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 3: the state of Florida. And I wasn't like majority of them, 813 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 3: and in most cases it didn't look like any of 814 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:00,719 Speaker 3: the previous nominees. But I actually think where we do 815 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 3: best is when we go to the places that are 816 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 3: most susceptible to our message. The people who want, who 817 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 3: really want to believe, but their life example so far 818 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 3: hasn't hasn't given them great reason to believe, or to 819 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,839 Speaker 3: organize or to vote, and start to give them real 820 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 3: reason to show up. It's the difference that a polster 821 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 3: makes between going after a registered voter who is a 822 00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 3: Republican versus a non registered voter who, if they were registered, 823 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 3: would vote Democratic. They're always going to go with the 824 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 3: one that's registered because it's closer to the action that 825 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 3: you want them to pursue, which is voting, rather than 826 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 3: the one who has a register and then choose to 827 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:41,759 Speaker 3: show up. And what I'm suggesting is is Buddhases and 828 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 3: others ought to make sure that they're readily and repeatedly 829 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:49,359 Speaker 3: in forums of constistuencies that want to believe that want 830 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:51,320 Speaker 3: to go and do this thing, but they need the 831 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 3: extra push, the extra pool to do it well. 832 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 1: Some would say you won that election, but that's a 833 00:44:56,719 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 1: conversation that we always have here. Before we go to 834 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 1: a break, I want to play this listener comment because 835 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 1: they're talking about what it takes to up that GOTV game. 836 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 1: So let's take a listen. I don't know, I don't 837 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 1: know if this person gave their name, but they're talking 838 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 1: about battleground states in the words the Angela Nick roll 839 00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:16,279 Speaker 1: the right quick. 840 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,840 Speaker 11: So I'm sitting here on the puge sound thinking about 841 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:24,320 Speaker 11: anybody that can hear my voice on an idea that 842 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:27,160 Speaker 11: I think will bring out voter participation five or eight 843 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:37,640 Speaker 11: four battleground states specifically, but all in general. Artists that 844 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 11: are from there, musicians, athletes come together at a voterfest 845 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:49,360 Speaker 11: in those areas that we need desperately to have increased 846 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 11: voter participation, notaries on site, food trucks, the whole nine 847 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,560 Speaker 11: those states that won't allow water across the street. Really, 848 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:02,319 Speaker 11: I think it could be a viable. 849 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:05,760 Speaker 4: Answer to the problem that we face. 850 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:10,280 Speaker 6: This is import tempt. 851 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:17,640 Speaker 11: That's why Angela Rah, you know where I'm at, Tiffany, 852 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:19,600 Speaker 11: we met Andrew? 853 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 9: What up? 854 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 3: Okay? 855 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 1: I like the block party idea. 856 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 4: What do you think Anthela just shout out to the hometown. 857 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 4: I just want to remind of the viewers that marijuana 858 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 4: is legal in Washington State. And the vibe that he 859 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 4: was on, he had to be. 860 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:37,399 Speaker 1: He was going so slow. 861 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,239 Speaker 4: I was like, what is happening? Remember to say his name? 862 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 4: He was like, Hey, what's that? You know where I'm at? 863 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:44,880 Speaker 4: What's going on? 864 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 3: Welcome? 865 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:48,800 Speaker 4: So there's a reason he had a shades on. His 866 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 4: eyes were sending real low. Okay, but anyway, No, I 867 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,319 Speaker 4: really like the voter fest ideas. I think that there 868 00:46:56,360 --> 00:47:00,480 Speaker 4: are friends of ours that run these kinds of events. Andrew, 869 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 4: you certainly ran them on your campaign. Natasha Brown does. 870 00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 3: Them all them together, love the time Black. 871 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,720 Speaker 4: Parties they do it with local organizations on the ground 872 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 4: and what do I call black battleground areas that are 873 00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 4: just as significant to us as battleground states. I also 874 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:19,279 Speaker 4: think Collective Pack is doing some of that work. And 875 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:23,000 Speaker 4: what's the other one? There's another anyway, there are a 876 00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 4: bunch Black Pack higher Heights, there are a bunch. 877 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 1: And so I do such a project. 878 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 4: Yes, thanks, Tiff, I'm sure Andrew got something you can 879 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 4: name too. There are a lot of entities that do 880 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 4: this work. So I love the idea. My friend and 881 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 4: Puget sound next time, I hope you give us your name, 882 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 4: and I would encourage you to travel down south and 883 00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:45,239 Speaker 4: catch our friends doing some of this work all the time. 884 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 4: And yeah, maybe we can have one here. 885 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 3: Obviously the music piece is the influence of celebrity. All 886 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:53,520 Speaker 3: there very important, certainly techniques that we tried in our 887 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 3: campaign to stimulate vote voter turnout, but it can none 888 00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 3: of that, just to put it plainly, can replace what 889 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 3: it means for you. The individual you brother on Future 890 00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 3: Sound going to five other people who you know motivate, 891 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,959 Speaker 3: registering them and then moving them to the ballot box. 892 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 3: There's no influence on planet Earth as powerful as the 893 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 3: personal network of you to your five friends, ten friends, 894 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,120 Speaker 3: whomever it is that you choose to influence. And that's 895 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 3: why we've been trying to really sharpen and harp on 896 00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 3: this message of a ride with five you and five others. 897 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 3: Make that the team that you're responsible for, and I 898 00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:36,319 Speaker 3: promise you will see the results if all of us 899 00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:37,440 Speaker 3: committed to do just that far. 900 00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:39,799 Speaker 1: I love all those ideas, but in the meantime, keep 901 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,439 Speaker 1: enjoying those trees. If that's what you were in fact doing. 902 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 1: All right, we gotta take a quick break. We'll be 903 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:44,879 Speaker 1: right back. 904 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 11: Come. 905 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:52,720 Speaker 2: Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Welcome. 906 00:48:57,840 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 6: What's that family? My name is Michael. I'm a nineteen 907 00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 6: year old college students studying political science at the university 908 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:05,320 Speaker 6: in the Metro Atlantic area. I have followed all of 909 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 6: you for many years, since I was in middle school actually, 910 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:10,719 Speaker 6: and throughout all of you all's trials and tribulations, it 911 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:14,000 Speaker 6: has only continue to inspire me to keep going, to 912 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:17,360 Speaker 6: keep fighting, continue to speak up for marginalized groups in 913 00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:21,279 Speaker 6: our country. And for that I can never say thank 914 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 6: you enough. But right now I'm at a crossroad. So 915 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:26,320 Speaker 6: the question is who do I need to be reaching 916 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,480 Speaker 6: out to at the local, state, and federal levels to 917 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 6: join the fight. What do I need to be asking 918 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:37,279 Speaker 6: them at these levels to constantly be providing folks with 919 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 6: true information instead of misinformation so that way they can 920 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 6: make the best decision for themselves. In this country come 921 00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:48,880 Speaker 6: November twenty twenty four, it is not common for me 922 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:50,879 Speaker 6: to find young people who are willing to speak out 923 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 6: and represent for most of the younger community. But I 924 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,080 Speaker 6: also am trying to figure out where to start because 925 00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:59,800 Speaker 6: I'm still a novice and to feel, quite frankly, but 926 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:03,120 Speaker 6: that that's not going to silence me. It's not going 927 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 6: to stop me, it won't break me. I will not 928 00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 6: become complacent. Thanks in advance for you all support and 929 00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:11,399 Speaker 6: your guidance. Love y'all. 930 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:15,359 Speaker 4: Welcome home, Michael, I love this so much. 931 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:15,640 Speaker 3: Well. 932 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:19,120 Speaker 4: First of all, that letter that Rafael Warnock wrote to 933 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:22,640 Speaker 4: his daughter, I think that there's some inspiration in there 934 00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 4: for you too. I am thrilled that you are this 935 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:32,040 Speaker 4: involved in the process. Tiff is atl fam and Andrew 936 00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:34,799 Speaker 4: is close enough, so I think they should definitely weigh 937 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 4: in here, but I just got a little shameless plug 938 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,640 Speaker 4: real quick. I have a professional development program where we 939 00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:44,760 Speaker 4: spend time on developing the activism muscles of young black folks. 940 00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:47,839 Speaker 4: I hope that you will continue consider joining that because 941 00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:49,440 Speaker 4: I think you'll find a lot of folks who are 942 00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:53,000 Speaker 4: like minded. Michael, and thank you for following us. Since 943 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 4: you were a small tot. It makes us feel old, 944 00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 4: but we're glad you're young. 945 00:50:58,560 --> 00:50:59,800 Speaker 1: There's a place he should go. 946 00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's always up on the applications open up 947 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:08,320 Speaker 4: and it's on my Instagram, Okay, at Angela. 948 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:12,759 Speaker 1: Rai cohort, and they are quite impressive, so I love it. 949 00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:16,480 Speaker 1: It's was it Michael, Yes, Michael, Yeah. 950 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 3: It was his name. Okay, Michael one. We are exceedingly 951 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:23,240 Speaker 3: proud of you, brother. And what I love about Angela's 952 00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:26,320 Speaker 3: Fellowship is, yes, it is a place to plug in. 953 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:30,880 Speaker 3: But the truth is is sometimes our leaders need leaders, 954 00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:34,480 Speaker 3: and our leaders need inspiration. And when you get yourself 955 00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:37,680 Speaker 3: in common company with people who are trying to impact 956 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 3: and make the same change that you're trying to make, 957 00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:43,000 Speaker 3: you'll find that it's much more difficult for you to 958 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:46,879 Speaker 3: feel downtrodden alone. Feeling like you want to check out, 959 00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 3: or any of those other things that you you've already 960 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 3: committed to not enduring. But by and by those feelings 961 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:56,480 Speaker 3: do tend to creep up. And so when you have 962 00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 3: a way to plug in, and I think Angela's Fellowship 963 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:05,600 Speaker 3: offers a great option for it, please please police supply. Lastly, 964 00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:08,080 Speaker 3: I don't think any of us wake up trying to 965 00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:11,320 Speaker 3: make history any day of the week. I certainly didn't. 966 00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:13,480 Speaker 3: I can't recall if I ever had a day where 967 00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:15,759 Speaker 3: I woke up saying I'm gonna my goal is to 968 00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:19,200 Speaker 3: make history. I was always steered toward making some kind 969 00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:22,759 Speaker 3: of impact, some kind of change about something that I 970 00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:26,399 Speaker 3: thought was not right, usually something that interacted my personal life. 971 00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 3: And so don't feel like you're not playing on the 972 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:33,759 Speaker 3: big boy or big girl feel because you know you're 973 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:38,479 Speaker 3: not creating laws or writing constitutions every day. That little 974 00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:40,640 Speaker 3: thing that you think maybe little may be the one 975 00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 3: thing that catapults your next work into the stratosphere and 976 00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:47,719 Speaker 3: recruits hundreds of thousands of people toward it. So so 977 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 3: so act where you are. I mean, I promise you'll 978 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 3: get you where you want to go. I wish you 979 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:53,399 Speaker 3: you know I wish you well. 980 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:59,320 Speaker 1: So if you're looking for specific people to join in Atlanta, 981 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:02,520 Speaker 1: I have to say, first and foremost Latasha Brown, our 982 00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,919 Speaker 1: good sister, Latasha Brown. She runs an organization, Black Voters Matter. 983 00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:09,879 Speaker 1: I have never seen someone so committed to the call, 984 00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:13,080 Speaker 1: so committed to the people. She has an extraordinary team, 985 00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: an extraordinary ground game, and she is plugged in with 986 00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 1: all of the organizations not only in Georgia but all 987 00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 1: across the country. They issue grants. So I would DM 988 00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 1: Black Voters Matter, or you could DM Latasha Brown herself. 989 00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 1: She's on social media Instagram, Twitter, But shoot her a 990 00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:31,839 Speaker 1: DM and and somebody on her team. We'll get back 991 00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:34,440 Speaker 1: back to you. We can flag it for her, so 992 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:38,680 Speaker 1: she'll be looking for your correspondence.

Okay, So this one I think is Craig, 1000 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:08,399 Speaker 1: you ain't got to lie, Craig, what you got to say. 1001 00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:10,880 Speaker 12: Hey, guys, this is Craig Knight coming out of Brooklyn, 1002 00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 12: New York, and I'm on a podcast called the Six 1003 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,480 Speaker 12: Degrees Podcast, and I just like to say, we're very 1004 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 12: inspired by what you do. So just in the spirit 1005 00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:25,279 Speaker 12: of that, just like you, guys have conversations outside of 1006 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 12: the podcast, so do we. One of my friends and 1007 00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 12: I on the podcast, her name is Charlene. 1008 00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:31,960 Speaker 8: She thinks that. 1009 00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:37,000 Speaker 12: One of the reasons why the two party system, in 1010 00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:40,480 Speaker 12: her view, is impotent is because of what she calls 1011 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:45,759 Speaker 12: white control trauma and white people's desire on the blue 1012 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 12: side and both the red and the blue side, because 1013 00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:52,200 Speaker 12: of their desire to control, has pretty much made. 1014 00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:55,960 Speaker 6: Voting sort of a non. 1015 00:54:56,120 --> 00:55:00,160 Speaker 12: Starter or non issue for black people because at the 1016 00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:01,600 Speaker 12: end of the day, they're always going to try to 1017 00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 12: one control. So that's pretty much her theory on it. 1018 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 12: I'm not sure if I agree with it, but as 1019 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:08,480 Speaker 12: you do, you disagree, we do too. Just want to 1020 00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 12: get your thoughts on that. 1021 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:10,800 Speaker 6: Also. 1022 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:13,480 Speaker 12: One of the things that we do agree on as 1023 00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:17,320 Speaker 12: a panel, there's four of us. We also think that 1024 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 12: white voters on the red side, which is most of them, 1025 00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:27,000 Speaker 12: think that they have some kind of skin in the 1026 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:29,360 Speaker 12: game if they vote for someone like Trump. But we 1027 00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:30,920 Speaker 12: think that the only skin that they have in the 1028 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:35,400 Speaker 12: game is skin. So want to get your thoughts on 1029 00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 12: that too. 1030 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:39,200 Speaker 1: I like that question. Yeah, I think if you listen 1031 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,759 Speaker 1: to this podcast, you know how we all feel. One 1032 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 1: thing that I have to say that really bothers me 1033 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:45,600 Speaker 1: is when people are like, oh, y'all have some Democratic shields, 1034 00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 1: and y'all, you know, regurgitating talking points and let me 1035 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:49,880 Speaker 1: just say, the devil is a lie. Okay. None of 1036 00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:52,120 Speaker 1: us on here is trying to be a talking head 1037 00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 1: for the Democratic Party. The party don't ask me for nothing, okay, 1038 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:58,400 Speaker 1: and I certainly don't offer anything. We are always focused 1039 00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:00,440 Speaker 1: on harm reduction to our pe people. If we're a 1040 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 1: member of any party, it is the Black People's Liberation Party, 1041 00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:09,840 Speaker 1: because we want to see ourselves function and thrive safely 1042 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 1: in this country. And I think you know our mission, 1043 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 1: our collective mission, but certainly my personal mission that I've 1044 00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:19,080 Speaker 1: talked about is for the equality and liberation of black 1045 00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:21,239 Speaker 1: people and all people of color. And the unique thing 1046 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:25,520 Speaker 1: about that is when that happens, everyone benefits. Now, when 1047 00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:29,000 Speaker 1: it comes to the white population, in this country, there 1048 00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:31,920 Speaker 1: are outside of people under you know, the working class 1049 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:35,200 Speaker 1: white people and poor white people are certainly impacted by 1050 00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:40,160 Speaker 1: the same adverse policies in which we're impacted. But it's 1051 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,399 Speaker 1: not a bad time to be a white person ever, 1052 00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:45,680 Speaker 1: So there is some truth to that. You know, it 1053 00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if it's a Republican administration or democratic administration. Previously, 1054 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:53,800 Speaker 1: for a certain level of white person in this country, 1055 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:59,319 Speaker 1: a college educated man, white man is not really impacted. Well, well, 1056 00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:03,560 Speaker 1: this proportionately the rest of society is. And so that's 1057 00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:05,359 Speaker 1: why I think sometimes you see on these cable news 1058 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:07,239 Speaker 1: panels people are laughing and joking, and you go in 1059 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 1: the green room and everybody's laughing and talking. It's like 1060 00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 1: if you just got off air saying something truly abhorrent 1061 00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,759 Speaker 1: and supporting Donald Trump, for example, I'm not key kiing 1062 00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 1: and hahn with you in the green room, like you 1063 00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 1: are the enemy of the people. And so it's not 1064 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:22,480 Speaker 1: a game to us, it's not a sports as we're 1065 00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:25,640 Speaker 1: literally fighting for survival. So yes, this two party system 1066 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,920 Speaker 1: is harmful to us. We did a whole podcast on 1067 00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 1: third party candidates. I encourage you to have your friend 1068 00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:36,960 Speaker 1: watch that because we talk about how third parties could 1069 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:40,960 Speaker 1: be impactful in this election. We're riding with Vice President Harris, 1070 00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 1: but the third parties can certainly have an impact at 1071 00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:46,640 Speaker 1: the state and local level and eventually perhaps on the 1072 00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:48,720 Speaker 1: federal level as well. Y'all got anything on that. 1073 00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:54,880 Speaker 4: I just have a couple of notes. My suggestion as 1074 00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:59,080 Speaker 4: a fellow podcaster to my good friend Craig is don't 1075 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:01,560 Speaker 4: put the light behind you you Unyes, you're going for 1076 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:06,480 Speaker 4: a mystery feel. And since we tell everybody welcome home, 1077 00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:07,720 Speaker 4: I got to talk to him like family. 1078 00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 3: I would tell you guys that, yeah, thank you, and 1079 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 3: no backlighting. 1080 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, don't backlight unless you're given a mysterious vibe and. 1081 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 3: Which which totally could have been your mission, I could 1082 00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 3: have been his mission. 1083 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:22,240 Speaker 4: But I just, I'm just it's just a suggestion. I 1084 00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 4: like it. 1085 00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:27,040 Speaker 3: Shout out to six degrees podcast, though, and I'm glad 1086 00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:29,920 Speaker 3: y'all are talking to each other, to friends and recruiting 1087 00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:33,880 Speaker 3: new listeners in the your sphere. Y'all know where I 1088 00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:36,919 Speaker 3: am on this, which is power power power. Power acts 1089 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:40,160 Speaker 3: to protect power, power acts to maintain power, and people 1090 00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 3: act in ways if they don't feel like they have 1091 00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:45,360 Speaker 3: the power they act in ways that get the most 1092 00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 3: approximate to the power. And I think that's all people, 1093 00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:52,120 Speaker 3: and I think that's what we see happening in our 1094 00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:55,040 Speaker 3: political system. As one of my friends used to say, 1095 00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:57,040 Speaker 3: who was running for office wasn't a friend, was a 1096 00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:59,800 Speaker 3: colleague at the time. I'm not looking for everybody to vote. 1097 00:58:59,840 --> 00:59:01,640 Speaker 3: I'm looking for those who are voting for me to vote. 1098 00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:04,000 Speaker 3: And I think that's by and large how people who 1099 00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:06,600 Speaker 3: are running and maintaining office of thinking is. I don't 1100 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,080 Speaker 3: I'm not trying to turn out an unknown. I'm not 1101 00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:12,240 Speaker 3: out here organizing just anybody. I'm organizing the people who 1102 00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:14,840 Speaker 3: I believe if they show up, they'll keep me in power. 1103 00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:19,680 Speaker 3: And you're voting for them because you're you're believing that 1104 00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:22,080 Speaker 3: you are approximate to the power, which means if they 1105 00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:25,000 Speaker 3: look out for themselves, then the next layer they're gonna 1106 00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:27,640 Speaker 3: look out for is you. And I get that, and 1107 00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:29,439 Speaker 3: I think that that's what has the other side most 1108 00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:34,520 Speaker 3: afraid that they will lose some closeness, some approximation to power, 1109 00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:36,040 Speaker 3: and then they won't have given the. 1110 00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 1: Whole idea though about like you know, white control, I 1111 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 1: think Angela brought up something earlier about like going on 1112 00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:45,479 Speaker 1: Fox and how you know she might not be able 1113 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:49,840 Speaker 1: to control her responses to them on Fox, and there 1114 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:51,800 Speaker 1: is you know, some level to that I think I 1115 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:54,920 Speaker 1: could handle Fox. I could you know, articulate an argument 1116 00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:57,400 Speaker 1: and debunk the ridiculous they say. But I do wonder 1117 00:59:57,480 --> 01:00:01,560 Speaker 1: sometimes she's these videos that go viral. People confronting you 1118 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:03,400 Speaker 1: like that is the time, because you have to make 1119 01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:06,240 Speaker 1: a split second decision on how you're going to handle yourself. 1120 01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:08,760 Speaker 1: And one, you know, if if a white person is 1121 01:00:08,760 --> 01:00:11,240 Speaker 1: approaching you aggressively and you feel unsafe, and you feel 1122 01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:14,040 Speaker 1: threatened because they're in your space, you either have to 1123 01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:17,160 Speaker 1: decide to be dismissive. So if law enforcement shows up, 1124 01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:19,440 Speaker 1: they're gonna see this calm black woman sitting across from 1125 01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:23,280 Speaker 1: this irate, crazy white woman, or you have to immediately 1126 01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 1: go spider monkey and let them know I ain't the one. 1127 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:32,360 Speaker 1: And you pick the right one today. So we are 1128 01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:34,560 Speaker 1: going to revisit. 1129 01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:38,080 Speaker 4: Oh my god, Andrew, I was just thinking the same 1130 01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:40,520 Speaker 4: thing I was gonna say. Ray Charles said it because 1131 01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:41,480 Speaker 4: you got. 1132 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:46,720 Speaker 1: The right one. An important moment in black history. I 1133 01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:48,960 Speaker 1: want you to take a listen to the sound and 1134 01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:50,560 Speaker 1: you may remember. 1135 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:55,920 Speaker 6: It, t. 1136 01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:04,000 Speaker 1: Rest, I'm still in moving boat. 1137 01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 11: Moo. 1138 01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:09,720 Speaker 4: I just want to flag for the listeners, not the 1139 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:13,920 Speaker 4: viewers that win. Sis says, get out there, young bucks. 1140 01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:16,160 Speaker 4: She was talking to the brother that jumped off the 1141 01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 4: boat and like ram to help his colleague while he 1142 01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:22,480 Speaker 4: was about to throw them things. Y'all knew it was 1143 01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,600 Speaker 4: going down when he took that shirt off and was like, 1144 01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:26,840 Speaker 4: forget it on my money. 1145 01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:30,200 Speaker 1: I might alway Anniverse three you guys. One year ago 1146 01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 1: on August fifth, twenty twenty three, the infamous or famous, 1147 01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:37,000 Speaker 1: depending on how you look at it, Montgomery Boat Brawl 1148 01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:40,920 Speaker 1: went down. We have dubbed it a holiday August teenth, 1149 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:44,480 Speaker 1: and that was a revisited audio and I have watched that. 1150 01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 1: I could reenact the whole thing. Probably. I've watched that 1151 01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:50,600 Speaker 1: tape about thirty times when I'm frustrated. I watched that tape. 1152 01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:53,800 Speaker 1: It was such a moment of unity amongst us. 1153 01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:55,920 Speaker 3: Collective yes impact, Yes. 1154 01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 1: It was a collective impact. And I really think that's 1155 01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:01,520 Speaker 1: how we have to move as a community. You mess 1156 01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:04,200 Speaker 1: with one, you mess with all. I don't care if 1157 01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 1: I don't know you. If I see something going down, 1158 01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:08,520 Speaker 1: I'm coming over my phone ready, to hear what happened 1159 01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:10,840 Speaker 1: with everything? Okay over here? I think people have to 1160 01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:13,200 Speaker 1: know because you only see white people act like that 1161 01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:18,480 Speaker 1: when they are not outnumbered.

I would just say, I know, 1289 01:09:05,760 --> 01:09:08,719 Speaker 3: we're feeling really euphoric a lot of the community about 1290 01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:15,080 Speaker 3: Kamala Harris's ascension to almost democratic nominee for presidents soon 1291 01:09:15,160 --> 01:09:18,679 Speaker 3: to be. I would say the other side hasn't kept 1292 01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:21,719 Speaker 3: the race for president as close as they have because 1293 01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:25,799 Speaker 3: they have great candidates. They've kept it this close because 1294 01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:28,880 Speaker 3: in the case of Kamala Harris, when there is not 1295 01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:33,400 Speaker 3: a salient enough attack on her based off the facts, 1296 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:38,760 Speaker 3: they go gutter, and unfortunately gutter still sometimes wins out. 1297 01:09:38,840 --> 01:09:43,120 Speaker 3: It certainly captures opinion and imagination. And so just know 1298 01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:47,519 Speaker 3: that we have to be ready every single day between 1299 01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:50,280 Speaker 3: now an election day to go to the hilt for 1300 01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:54,360 Speaker 3: what it is that we believe, and strong and unapologetic 1301 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:58,760 Speaker 3: defense of the candidate that we support, because they may 1302 01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:03,680 Speaker 3: look like chaos, but it should terrify you because when 1303 01:10:03,720 --> 01:10:07,920 Speaker 3: they lose on legitimate grounds, they're legitimate grounds of fighting, 1304 01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:12,000 Speaker 3: they go to the illegitimate and those tools they have 1305 01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:16,759 Speaker 3: spent centuries sharpening. And so let's not go to sleep 1306 01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:19,840 Speaker 3: on this thing. This race is nowhere near the end, 1307 01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:23,880 Speaker 3: and it will change generation to generation day by day 1308 01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:27,800 Speaker 3: until we get to election day. Power doesn't see it 1309 01:10:27,840 --> 01:10:31,799 Speaker 3: anything easily, and it certainly doesn't see it without a demand, 1310 01:10:31,880 --> 01:10:34,160 Speaker 3: and we're making a demand right now, and it's going 1311 01:10:34,240 --> 01:10:38,439 Speaker 3: to stretch people, and particularly the other side beyond its limits. 1312 01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:40,800 Speaker 3: Is my fear, which is why we have to We 1313 01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:41,919 Speaker 3: have to stay ready. 1314 01:10:42,040 --> 01:10:44,639 Speaker 4: Stay ready, so you ain't got to get ready.
