Speaker 1: Good morning, keeps, and welcome to wikate f Daily with
Speaker 1: me your girl Daniel Moody recording from my home bunker.
Speaker 1: So the folks, let me start off with this. Kevin McCarthy,
Speaker 1: the Fisher Price Speaker of the House, who's really a
Speaker 1: puppet from Marjorie Taylor Green and the far right have
Speaker 1: decided to open up an inquiry, impeachment inquiry into President
Speaker 1: Biden over nothing. And I am just here's my thinking
Speaker 1: on this, because I'm not going to waste a lot
Speaker 1: of time or energy, nor should you, because the reality
Speaker 1: here is that the Republican Party has nothing. They offer nothing,
Speaker 1: Even their own Republican members who are in districts that
Speaker 1: Biden won, even some of the most egregious members have
Speaker 1: come out and said, you know, there is nothing right, Like,
Speaker 1: if there was something and we needed to investigate it,
Speaker 1: then we should have the ability to do so. But
Speaker 1: right now there's nothing there, which is why McCarthy can't
Speaker 1: call a vote right on opening up the in Korean
Speaker 1: as just instead directing these committees to waste taxpayer dollars
Speaker 1: in time and money to do it because he doesn't
Speaker 1: have the fucking votes. And you know what is really frustrating.
Speaker 1: Here is the optics, the optics that Democrats don't necessarily understand,
Speaker 1: which is that a majority of Americans right now, with
Speaker 1: a recent poll that came out, believe that the indictments
Speaker 1: against Donald Trump are solely political nature, right And why
Speaker 1: is that? Because it's important for us to understand and
Speaker 1: not just shrug off the fact that a majority of
Speaker 1: Americans across party lines believe that these indictmencies for indictments,
Speaker 1: these ninety one charges in counting against Donald Trump, are
Speaker 1: politically motivated. And that is because seven to eight years ago,
Speaker 1: when Donald Trump entered the political sphere and began peppering
Speaker 1: our society with lies, began questioning agencies, began questioning the
Speaker 1: integrity of our systems, of our governmental systems, which is
Speaker 1: what sets us apart from the rest of the world.
Speaker 1: He began his putin Esque campaign to delegitimize our agencies
Speaker 1: and weaponize them. And instead of corporatized media calling out
Speaker 1: what was happening and making it plainly clear to the
Speaker 1: American people that Donald Trump is an enemy of speech,
Speaker 1: he's an enemy of truth, he's an enemy of facts,
Speaker 1: and it is up to Americans to remain vigilant and
Speaker 1: instead of Democrats every time that they were in front
Speaker 1: of a microphone or had an opportunity to use their
Speaker 1: platforms in a coordinated strategic effort to continue to inform
Speaker 1: the American public, knowing that from twenty sixteen on we
Speaker 1: have had a massive disinformation campaign done at the hands
Speaker 1: of the Russians at the behest of Donald Trump, Russia.
Speaker 1: Are you listening right? So here we are now where
Speaker 1: you have Kevin McCarthy at the behest of the fucking
Speaker 1: kook Marjorie Taylor Green saying we need to open up
Speaker 1: an inquiry and we need to stop spending. Mind you,
Speaker 1: these are the same people who voted to increase the
Speaker 1: debt by seven trillion dollars. You know how you know
Speaker 1: that that's true as well, because the idiot Nikki Haley,
Speaker 1: when they were on their bullshit Republican debate stage, said right,
Speaker 1: the debt is not owned by just one party. She's
Speaker 1: like people on this stage voted right, voted for the
Speaker 1: tax you know, scam for the rich that inflated our
Speaker 1: debt by seven trillion dollars in four years. And she
Speaker 1: was booed for that. Why because she told the truth
Speaker 1: and So you know, here's the thing. The optics are unfortunate.
Speaker 1: The only things that matter when you allowed for reality
Speaker 1: TV politics to enter the fucking chat right, and because
Speaker 1: the Democrats don't have a counter message for that, they
Speaker 1: want to continue with business as usual. It is going
Speaker 1: to absolutely seem as if this is just tit for tat,
Speaker 1: when in fact it is tit for tat, but at
Speaker 1: the hands of the Republican Party that is going to
Speaker 1: weaponize government at every single turn as a way to
Speaker 1: pay back their political opponents for doing what is stated
Speaker 1: inside of the Constitution, which is to go after insurrectionists
Speaker 1: and those who would seek to bring down democracy, which
Speaker 1: is the entirety of the Republican Party. Now, what I
Speaker 1: also find interesting is that there are people who are
Speaker 1: shaking their head at the release of the Fulton County
Speaker 1: Grand Jury's full list of people that they recommended for indictments,
Speaker 1: with three sitting senators appearing on that list, who Fannie
Speaker 1: Willis decided not to indict. Now, I don't know why
Speaker 1: Fannie Willis decided not to indict Lindsay Graham, because let
Speaker 1: us be clear that Lindsay Graham is a Senator from
Speaker 1: South Carolina, Lindsey Graham had no business calling any fucking
Speaker 1: body in Georgia when the Georgian right senators didn't seek
Speaker 1: to call Rathensburger the Secretary of State to say what's
Speaker 1: happening down there with the election. Similarly, Michael Steele recently
Speaker 1: said on MSNBC, and I have to agree he goes,
Speaker 1: did anybody ask Lindsay if when he was senator in
Speaker 1: two thousand and it was Bush v. Gore, did he
Speaker 1: decide to make a phone call down to Florida to
Speaker 1: see what was quote unquote going on. No, we did not,
Speaker 1: because guess what, it wasn't in his fucking purview, right,
Speaker 1: It wasn't his responsibility as a random ass senator from
Speaker 1: a state that was not in question. And so when
Speaker 1: you're looking at what is transpiring in this country, Putin
Speaker 1: is sitting back, applauding and patting himself on the back
Speaker 1: for doing what many thought can never happen, right, which
Speaker 1: was to crack open America's democracy using one of the
Speaker 1: two political parties as your trojan horse. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: really wild when you think about it, right, you think
Speaker 1: about the things that the Republicans are saying, and the
Speaker 1: projection that they are putting out there and recognizing that,
Speaker 1: you know, media again once again did not think to themselves, huh, Well,
Speaker 1: if these one hundred and forty something House Republicans are
Speaker 1: voting against the certification of the election because they say
Speaker 1: that the election was fraudulent and yet they were on
Speaker 1: the same ballot and won their seats on the same ticket,
Speaker 1: why is it that just the one line of the
Speaker 1: ballot for the presidential are you seemingly saying was fraudulent?
Speaker 1: Did you hear one reporter ask that question to any
Speaker 1: of the one hundred and forty some odd Republicans that
Speaker 1: voted against certifying the election. No, that's just, you know,
Speaker 1: a regular ask question. So, were you saying that your
Speaker 1: election results were also illegitimate or it's only illegitimate if
Speaker 1: you had lost, but because you won but Donald Trump
Speaker 1: lost but on the same ballot for people, how does
Speaker 1: that work? Exactly? Could you explain? And just wait? But
Speaker 1: this is not the kind of questions that journalists s
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, because I guess you would seem what
Speaker 1: what's the word too intelligent? Too informed? Lord only knows.
Speaker 1: Here's what I will say with regard to this inquiry.
Speaker 1: It's not going to go anywhere. It's going to be
Speaker 1: a waste of money. It is going to be Benghazi
Speaker 1: on steroids, which also turned up with nothing. And mind
Speaker 1: you that Republicans are using the same tools that the
Speaker 1: January sixth Committee used where they had thousands of documentation
Speaker 1: people on the you know, testifying before the committee and
Speaker 1: then their recommendations that they sent to the Department of Justice.
Speaker 1: Do you think that this inquiry is going to go
Speaker 1: anywhere to that extent, No, because there's no no, nothing,
Speaker 1: There's no there there. But that's not the point. The
Speaker 1: point is to continue to have this both sides ruffling
Speaker 1: and have Biden's name alongside impeachment inquiry in the press.
Speaker 1: And you know what the press is gonna do. Fucking
Speaker 1: fall through that and they're gonna follow right those little
Speaker 1: Hansel and Gretel fucking breadcrumbs that are laid out by
Speaker 1: the Republican Party all the way over a fucking cliff,
Speaker 1: you know, because that's what they do, folks. As the
Speaker 1: news is opening up this week, and I also want
Speaker 1: to turn attention to the devastating earthquake that took place
Speaker 1: in Morocco and then the devastating floods that have killed
Speaker 1: thousands of people in Libya. We are in the climate crisis, right.
Speaker 1: There is no denying that if you and fact have
Speaker 1: active brain cells. I know that the Republicans don't, so
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about them, but I'm talking about everyone else.
Speaker 1: What we are going to see increasingly in what we
Speaker 1: are seeing is devastation that is going to cost thousands,
Speaker 1: tens of probably thousands, millions of people's lives in areas
Speaker 1: that do not have the infrastructure and do not have
Speaker 1: the system in place like a FEMA to offer critical
Speaker 1: resources and staff emergency aid on the ground. And what
Speaker 1: is so horrible, right, is that all America media ever does,
Speaker 1: all this show is devastation and rubble and death in
Speaker 1: these areas of the world. And it has really stained
Speaker 1: our mentality that these people are people, right, with full
Speaker 1: lives and families and careers and aspirations and dreams, and
Speaker 1: all we do is feed into exactly what like the
Speaker 1: Indiana Jones series showed us about this region of the world, right,
Speaker 1: so that we can sit up on our high horse
Speaker 1: and think that, oh, but we're the developed world, right,
Speaker 1: and these kind of things always happen to these people
Speaker 1: over there, and so you don't get to you don't
Speaker 1: have to waste your empathy, waste your time. That's how
Speaker 1: American media corportize. Media shows these devastated areas. But when
Speaker 1: it happens to white people in Europe, my god, we
Speaker 1: got to stop everything, stop the presses, wall to wall coverage.
Speaker 1: And it's just once again going to show you that
Speaker 1: those that are responsible for the climate crisis that we
Speaker 1: are in are not going to be the ones that
Speaker 1: pay for it with their lives. And you know, it's
Speaker 1: these types of things that happen that make me just
Speaker 1: really wonder, you know, really wonder whenever the tables are
Speaker 1: going to turn, you know, when there is going to
Speaker 1: be any type of justice for the damage that America
Speaker 1: has done to the rest of the world. And maybe
Speaker 1: that is what we are experiencing right now. Because I
Speaker 1: tell you all, I'll be really honest with you, I've
Speaker 1: been reading a lot of all different types of psychology
Speaker 1: books and you know, religious books, and just trying to
Speaker 1: truly make sense and sharpen my analysis right of this
Speaker 1: time because in some ways, because I am an American
Speaker 1: and because I still have this I guess it would
Speaker 1: be indoctrinated belief that America can move past really hard moments.
Speaker 1: And I want to be a part of helping people
Speaker 1: make sense of and activating their power in this moment.
Speaker 1: And then a part of me, another part of me,
Speaker 1: is just like, this is what we fucking get. Maybe
Speaker 1: this shit is just karma, right, That the Empire of
Speaker 1: America that enslaved millions of Africans, that built this empire
Speaker 1: on blood soaked soil, that murdered indigenous people, that ripped
Speaker 1: babies out of wounds, that literally tore off people's scalps, right,
Speaker 1: and you white people use them as trophies. Right, remove
Speaker 1: teeth from a enslaved people's mouths, let George Washington and
Speaker 1: put them in their own and make pute stories about it.
Speaker 1: That played god around the world, moving presidents in and
Speaker 1: out and funneling arms to who was going to best
Speaker 1: serve your own personal interests and not the interests of
Speaker 1: the countries that you were invading. That maybe where we
Speaker 1: are right now is karma. But I'm like, does it
Speaker 1: have to rain down on all of us? But I
Speaker 1: guess that that's how the shit works because we've all
Speaker 1: I guess, you know, maybe knowingly or unknowingly been complicit
Speaker 1: right every time that we pledged allegiance to this country.
Speaker 1: You know, it is our tax dollars that goes to bomb,
Speaker 1: destroy name and ruin other countries lies, all in the
Speaker 1: name of what our liberty. So I'm very conflicted, you
Speaker 1: know I have been. I have been very conflicted in
Speaker 1: this moment. So if you find yourself in that place too,
Speaker 1: of the burn this shit to the ground and know
Speaker 1: we have to fight and you are at war with
Speaker 1: yourself over it, know that you're not alone, because it
Speaker 1: is It is something that I really contemplate every single
Speaker 1: day in great detail and have conversations with friends and
Speaker 1: you know, and colleagues that are in this space. I
Speaker 1: am getting ready to travel in the next two months.
Speaker 1: I'm going to leave the country for the first time,
Speaker 1: you know, this year, I guess it's the yeah, at
Speaker 1: the first time in twenty twenty three, and I'm going
Speaker 1: to head two Europe. Very exciting because I'm taking I
Speaker 1: never taken a solo trip. I've traveled with family, I've
Speaker 1: traveled with you know, my ax, I've traveled with friends,
Speaker 1: but I've never traveled alone. And so I am going
Speaker 1: to be doing that and I'm excited, I'm nervous, I'm scared,
Speaker 1: but a part of me is always wanted to be
Speaker 1: adventurous in that way be safe, you know, and I'll
Speaker 1: be safe and you know, and you can follow me
Speaker 1: on social because I'll be posting and maybe I'll be
Speaker 1: doing like short videos. I don't know, you guys, let
Speaker 1: me know the patrons that I have. Let me know
Speaker 1: if you would be interested in following some type of
Speaker 1: like travel vlog, because I'm going to be really interested
Speaker 1: to see what kind of questions I get asked. I
Speaker 1: always get asked, you know, And for people who travel
Speaker 1: abroad a lot. The last time, you know, I remember
Speaker 1: and not just you know, not just like a beach
Speaker 1: vacation or Caribbean vacation or anything like that, that I
Speaker 1: was in Europe. It was, you know, Trump coming into
Speaker 1: office and I was in Portugal and the Portuguese were like, so,
Speaker 1: what the fuck is up with America? Like what you
Speaker 1: guys really voted for that guy? Like he doesn't believe
Speaker 1: in climate change and like I can literally show you
Speaker 1: what is happening in our country, Like how does that
Speaker 1: even work? And it was the first time traveling that
Speaker 1: I was embarrassed to be an American. It was really like,
Speaker 1: I was truly embarrassed. And so now it's been several years, right,
Speaker 1: we went through an entire Trump administration, COVID and all
Speaker 1: of these things. So I'll be interested to see what
Speaker 1: kind of welcome, if any, that I receive, because it's
Speaker 1: always you know, I will say this, traveling while black
Speaker 1: has its own real issues, and then also being an
Speaker 1: American is pretty you know, it's interesting. It's interesting, I
Speaker 1: will I will say that, but let me know in
Speaker 1: the comments below this video from my patrons if you
Speaker 1: would be interested in some type of travel vlog while
Speaker 1: I'm gone, because I am thinking about, you know, just
Speaker 1: daily kind of check ins, what I'm experiencing, what I'm seeing.
Speaker 1: But what I'm most excited about, yeah, is to decide
Speaker 1: to take an adventure. Because here's the thing, folks. Life
Speaker 1: is not waiting for us, right, It's not waiting for
Speaker 1: perfect moments. It's not it's continuing on. And you know,
Speaker 1: this country, whether this is its last gasp, and that
Speaker 1: last gasp could be quite some time, you know, years
Speaker 1: and years of living in this very off kiltered, off
Speaker 1: balance way, and then it just becomes our norm and
Speaker 1: we forget what it was ever like to live in
Speaker 1: a normal, stable country, because that's how it happens, is
Speaker 1: that go out there and grab life. You know, don't
Speaker 1: wait for things to go back to quote unquote normal.
Speaker 1: Don't wait for things to just be okay, because the
Speaker 1: world is going to get increasingly dangerous and unsafe and
Speaker 1: all of these things because we're in a really instaba,
Speaker 1: you know, unstable time. But that's why I talk so
Speaker 1: much about your own personal grounding, because it is really
Speaker 1: important right to ground in yourself and in your own
Speaker 1: joy and in your own purpose and making change that
Speaker 1: you can do right. So you know, for those please
Speaker 1: look into trying to support the folks that are in
Speaker 1: Morocco six point eight earthquake that you know took over
Speaker 1: a thousand lives in counting the floods in Libya. I mean,
Speaker 1: those visuals are fucking crazy. Right of water above, you know,
Speaker 1: up to rooftops, thousands and thousands are dead there. You
Speaker 1: don't have to wait to be directed by your government
Speaker 1: to take action, right, you can take action on your own.
Speaker 1: If you are a member of a religious institution, maybe
Speaker 1: organize some type of dry and figure out how to
Speaker 1: get resources to that side of the world. You know,
Speaker 1: we can all do something. That is it for me
Speaker 1: today on this woke Wednesday, my friends, I hope you
Speaker 1: all are staying well, hydrated, moisturized, safe and in your joy.
Speaker 1: I feel like this election cycle, this is what I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say, last thing, is going to be crazy like
Speaker 1: crazy like emotionally draining. So I'm going to tell you all, like,
Speaker 1: this is why I'm taking my trip in November. This
Speaker 1: is why I'm like getting myself centered and together and
Speaker 1: all of these things, because the amount of effort that
Speaker 1: is going to take all of us to get through
Speaker 1: this next season in America is going to be a lot.
Speaker 1: So I'm going to tell you again, right, you need
Speaker 1: to reinforce your grounding, reinforce your joy with books and
Speaker 1: meditation and exercise and hydration and building community and all
Speaker 1: of these things, because you cannot look and wait for
Speaker 1: other people to do it for you, right, You have
Speaker 1: got to get it done, all right, friends, as always,
Speaker 1: power to the people and to all the people. Power.
Speaker 1: Get woke and stay woke as fuck.
